3:30 This hasn't been the case for a while. LABs on a transport will focus fire if you tell a transport with air to ground weapons to attack a target. More random Seraphim trivia: * The Usha-Ah's sniper mode slightly outranges the Aeon sniper bot, and the UEF Ravager PD. * Despite floating above the ground, the Usha-Ah is not classified as a hover unit. * The Ithalua cruiser has the second strongest flak weapon in the game. * The Hauthuum battleship pulls double duty as a strategic missile platform. It's by far the best naval nuke launcher due to being very tanky, and there being no external tells that it's building a nuke. * The Othuum has the highest combined DPS of any t3 main battle unit, and is the only one with splash damage. * The Seraphim SCU is the only SCU that does not have a RAS upgrade. * The Seraphim SCU is the only SCU that has access to Overcharge and Tactical Missiles. * FA's Seraphim appears to have been the original starting point for the Illuminate faction in Supcom 2, not the Aeon. Several units are carbon copies of FA Seraphim units, and most of the weapon names in the code are Seraphim in origin. * At the time of FA's release in 2007 it was considered a 'standalone expansion'; Seraphim was the only playable faction in multiplayer on GPGnet if you did not also own the original Supcom.
I want to point out that a patch a couple years ago (even more) allowed T1 transports to also focus fire their ghetto by giving them a "dummy" weapon that deals no damage but allows them to circle above a target, so ghetto transport with no air to ground weapon can focus fire aswell!
For me the biggest suprise with seraphim was the nuke-facility. Everyone knows that it requires 2 anti-nukes to get it down and most people know it has a lot bigger aoe than a standard nuke. But here's another one: it costs almost no mass to build nukes once the building is done, making it only energy hungry instead of mass and energy.
@@michaelsofine T3 Siege Tank is total trash after the Nerfes some Years ago. Because they nerfed base HP of all T3 Units by 2000 HP. This Hurted the Big HP Units like Perci and Bricks less, because they have lose less HP per Percent with this Nerf. Thats why you see Bricks and Percis and even Harbingers alot, but almost no Sera builds Siege Tanks because its Trash.
Lobo shells grant vision to contest vs Cybran stealth in tier 2. Same as sera scout plane. One of the few things to do that. Think sera t3 scout does it aswell.
Generally air experimentals should only be built if you have air superiority, otherwise they can be shot down from only a couple passes of ASFs. If you have air superiority, it's probably better to chip away at their surroundings or their army instead of going for the main base. Then you can out-eco them, and from there it's only a matter of time
The little stop button at the bottom left does that for artillery. I think there is also an option on the attack menu he showed that is a cease fire, may be wrong tho.

This is less tips and tricks and more just general unit abilities. Also lacking some details on unit upgrades and ways to use abilities those abilities..

I'm a little bit sad
Why Supcom 2 brink a nearly collapsed state (AEON) than other dimensions Alien (Seraphim)

We'll be playing a community game this Sunday, exclusive for Discord members. Join if you want in! :D
The T2 Seraphim assault bot is probably the best T2 unit
Yeah I like it too. You don’t have to wait until t3 to get a solid unit.

2000 and more hp, Just mindblowing
This tutorial videos are so good. Its concise, has good good music and is very friendly!
I would love a series on build orders and general strategies.
Great video!
Noob friendly Discord here!! discord.gg/xAyYEZuyut
Thanks for watching :D
Thank you for this video.❤🎉
I haven’t played FAF yet but I’m the OG SUPCOM all air scouts have the death camera. Gives you intel until it hits the ground.
Love your videos, now i just have to remember all the tips and tricks next time i play 😅

Good stuff thanks man
Hahhahah when he said death weapon a" and then ad comes in with some game where someone says in funny voice pew
Cybran T1 land scout has togglable cloaking and stealth as well.
I think it only has stealth which makes it invisible to radar but not invisible to vision.
@@michaelsofine It's actually the other way around, it has Cloak but not Stealth.
Any tips on how to use t4 bomber on a base full of shields

T1 scout on mexes is a dirty tactics 🙁
T3 sub-hunters are actually quite decent at dealing with air.
compared to what it used to be its not great anymore
tell my buddy
Is there a way to force ceasfire to a unit?
Say I have T3 arti but I don't want it to fire for whatever reason?

There is a toggle firestate dropdown menu in the hud.

After sniper bots nerf sera siege tanks aren’t that bad comparatively anymore

Dude this is like missing out on so much information.. you did not do your homework
It’s a short tips and tricks video, not a comprehensive faction guide
@TheGreenSquier tips usually help players these facts in the context you put aren't tips for success
More of an overview
