When a server accept the victory with a beacon on pedestal (gamesdomain for instance with ***spy), I love doing this :

1- I nuke/ion the HoN or the infantry barracks by placing the beacon outside the building. Why ? Because the enter is often well mined and because every one think you will destroy the refinery or central first.

2- The i come back (he he ) with a brand new beacon. The destroyed HoN/IB is not defended at all. I use the beacon on the pedestal. => And every defender are now searching it near other building

3- Suddenly the victory screen appears ! And no one see it coming

It work well as Nod and GDI, but when you do it twice on the same server, people start to understand

i've been doing that for a while and i must say i works like a charm! nobody thinks its in a destroyed building. But the smart players do check the barrack/hon when a beacon is set, but that doesnt happen to often.

i had a different idea but its about the same type of tactic. get a hotwire/tech and buy a beacon. first go to a different building plant all your c4 there. then go to the building you want to beacon and plant it. the other team will most likely go for the beacon. mean while your c4 should go off next just click the remotes and the other building is destroyed. if you've protected you beacon then the building you put it in is destroyed to, if not you at least got one building.

What I love is when in a last ditch rush effort, the entire base is deserted, you hear "X destroyed," "Y destroyed," all the while your beacon is ticking away - before that final structure goes, the pedestal dies and your beleaguered team wins.

But yeah, I get SUPER ****ed when we're doing excellent than some prick comes into base and places the beacon in the destroyed barracks/HoN and I'm forced to try and go in alone with an engineer and stare down a Patch or Invisible Man with only that small (but sometimes very effective) pistol.

I once placed the end game beacon in a destroyed HON and wont he game when NOD was about to win and the score was about 10,000-2,000.

Ya - I hate it when that happens. I generally think the endgame beacon is lame and only hop on servers with it enabled if I can't get into anything else...

Placing is beacon on pedestal is not lame.

Not defending pedestal IS lame

I think that tactic should be taken out. When the hand of nod/barrax is gone, you can no longer place beacons on the end game place and win if it goes off.

Remember, it's Nod, not NOD.

You guys are nuts.
BTW: If Nod was the town Cain went to after leaving his family...and his family was Adam and Eve...WHERE THE HELL DID THE TOWNSPEOPLE COME FROM!!!

Sorry. That's just been bugging me since I had to go to Sunday School as a kid. (Shudder...)
