Commanders,

With the event starting soon, I want to give you all a few tips about what to expect when fighting Sentinel forces.

Strategy


The Sentinel bases have weaknesses that skilled players can exploit. Look carefully at each base to determine an attack strategy.


Priority Targets:

Power Plants

Power plants fuel the destructive capabilities for all turrets. Taking these out will power down the base, reducing all turret fire rates by 50%.

Flood Turret

Flood turrets pack a hard-hitting blast that annihilates ground forces. Be very cautious with your ground forces and be sure to provide them with air support!

Storm Turret

   pJGRjepng

Storm turrets pack a hard-hitting volleys that shred through airborne forces, decimating them in mid flight. Be very cautious with your airborne forces and be sure to provide them with ground support!

    Tip/Trick 1 - Attack and destroy the Experimental Labs in each Sentinel Base, identified in the image below. Once this building is destroyed, Survivors will emerge and fight for you during battle. Survivors can be controlled, providing you with temporary cover or an additive offensive boost.

    Tip/Trick 2 - It’s Electric Special Op gives the shock effect to all deployed units when this buff is activated. Attacking with this buff will temporarily disable Flood and Storm turrets, and Warhorse Tanks defending Sentinel bases.

    Tip/Trick 3 - Torch and Scorcher tanks can quickly disintegrate Warhorse tanks and Preservers with their high damage. Make sure to bring a Warden or Guardian tank with them to provide distraction and cover for incoming fire.

    Tip/Trick 4 - Hover tanks will be helpful with move and shoot tactics. Fast moving, hard hitting Hover tanks can quickly strafe around Warhorse tanks allowing them to unleash a deadly missile barrage assault.

    Tip/Trick 5 - The Sentinels have convoys setting up forward operating bases. These convoys have increased number of Special Forces squads defending the area. Stealth Bombs and Missiles will be very useful when attacking these convoys.

    Tip/Trick 6 - Stealth Bombs and Missiles will be very useful when attacking Sentinel bases. Be careful, without proper support from ground and air units your Missiles will not be as effective.

    Tip/Trick 7 - Raptor and Oni jet planes are effective against Warhorse tanks. Their fast speed prevents a lot of damage from being taken. Be very cautious around Storm turrets, they will quickly bring down jet planes with long range attacks.

    Tip/Trick 8 - Ronin is effective at killing Warhorse tanks and Preservers with its high damage output and high health for survivability. When placed into a platoon with other Ryu-Kai units, like Scorchers and Guardians, Ronin will buff everything within range, increasing damage dealt.

    Tip/Trick 9 - Valkyries work great in Cave bases. They can cautiously fly into the heart of the cave to quickly disable Power Plants. This will help your ground units to stage an attack.

    Tip/Trick 10 - Shock Missiles can effectively stun vehicles and turrets, allowing you an opportunity to launch an offensive attack. This tech is helpful with temporarily immobilizing Warhorse tanks.

    Tip/Trick 11 - Skybolt Missiles can effectively stun infantry units allowing you an opportunity to launch an offensive attack. This tech is helpful with temporarily disabling Preserver squads.

    Tip/Trick 12 - The Flood turret is very effective when defending against ground attacks. Infantry units and tanks caught in its fire will suffer heavy damage from hard-hitting blasts.
