A unstopable strategie,

Place a Beacon on a APC and drive towards the enemy Defence just before it blows.

Like it has been said about a hundred times before in here... The beacons stay in their exact place on the map after they are armed/placed, and they cannot move. If you drove the APC away, it would be floating in mid-air.

I think you should also remember to try driving it afterwards and observe the beacon staying where you put it.

If you put a beacon on top of an aircraft, it will melt thru onto the ground.

That dont work.

Ion Cannons are assigned to a co-ordinate when they are deployed.

If the co-ordinate moves, they automatically return to your weapons selection.

Sooooo :

I thinks you were misinformed there, DrFlak. It will stay at the position you deployed it at. Beleive me on this one.

Doesn't work the beacon doesn't "stay in the air" either it actually goes through the APC. While testing this I found out how to get an orca to stay in mid air. I went on top of the Harvester then jumped out when the harvester moved the ocra stayed????/

I thought of this trick as well.. Tried it a long time ago. IT DOESN'T WORK.

When you are on top of the APC and deploy the beacon, the beacon goes right through the APC and lands on the ground. It doesn't act like explosives do. It doesn't stick.

And the missile and ion cannon needs guidance anyway.. as it comes down, you can't have the beacon moving about because its not able to follow the beacon.
