I wanted to ask a specific question about this game to other owners of it, but anticipating it becoming a general thread I’ve just given it a general title.
I have played previous versions of Empire Earth and this game before. Having played all three I developed a strategy which makes great use of towers. Instead of moving units about the map I could just put towers in key places and leave them to pick off anything or anyone that walked by. I’ve defeated enemies just by putting towers in certain places and letting them methodically kill the enemy units that strolled by.
But the other day I played a skirmish game in EEIII and when I got to the future epoch (with ‘western’) the towers didn’t seem to do anything at all! I’d researched everything there was to research but the towers seemed to have become completely useless. So I had to move units of tanks/robots/flying thingies one-by one to the attack zones where my mass of towers did nothing.
Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Am I doing something wrong or has the game a bug?
