So basically the Magnetron is an artillery unit (given how the AI uses it) that is much better as a support unit than as artillery.

I never thought on throwing vehicles on top of other vehicles with this unit. Cool! :)

omg the Magnetron, the essential tool for a competent competitive Yuri player. I hate this thing....unless I'm commanding it. :P You need to do some deeper testing with Magnetrons to show off how much weaker the unit is while airborne. This makes Magnetrons and Gatling Tanks (and maybe a Master Mind or two) a strong force to deal with. Oh, yea, and to show off wtf glitch shit is going on when you Magnetronize Harriers/Black Eagles, and if you can target Kirovs or Discs that are just exiting War factories. The Harriers and Eagles, I know will screw the Magnetron up, but I'm honestly curious on the latter. Edited for the 3rd time: Magnetrons pulling a ship attacked by a Giant Squid. Result...?

You can use magnetrons with great effect on Soviet mission 5 (Escape Velocity). But for this you need to capture Yuri's conyard or a war factory. I prefer to base walk across the cliffs to the top where the secret lab is. There I build barracks and a war factory to make flak trucks and engineers to capture nearby laser towers. Then I capture the rest of Yuri's buildings in the area, including conyard. Then I build a bunch of magnetrons and viruses to wreak havoc on his main base at the bottom. Psychic reveal comes in very handy, too.

Eyyyy use a Magnetron on a ship that's being attacked by a Giant Squid.

From what ive learned: Allies is for Players with experience due to thier Weak but faster units The Soviets are for beginners due to thier units having higher health but slower speed Yuri is for Experts and Trolls because of the mind and grind tactic

I remember Magnetron has even greater range once its locked in a target, specially a structure

I think we can compare it with Prism Tank. Negative: -less effective against structures -can't do anything to enemy infantry(which will appear when you destroy a enemy building) -can't deal damage to enemy vehicle directly -won't attack at all without order -can't damage multiple targets at the same time -not ideal to defend the base Positive: -costs 200$ less -can do something tricky to enemy vehicles Well I think I'd better try to capture some Prism Tanks for final attack instead

It's very annoying as sometimes I've set units to attack and they die from their buildings grr

I would also love to know if a Chrono Miner can still teleport while in mid air please? TIP: Lift up their Miner once they dock to drop off minerals.. then drop it straight away.. Both the miner and the Building explode. Very quick way to level the playing field.

Only if dropped ontop of a unit or structure, or on impassible terrain for that particular unit.

Also try dropping ships on bridges. It was years ago, but I seem to recall the ships actually surviving that.

I imagine if this were in RA 3, this unit could be switched from attract to repel. that would be a good defensive measure, push away tanks so the infantry will have to charge alone.

@@RappyGrinder I've always felt the unit was weaker while it was airborne, but that might be because the unit was in a helpless state, where if it wasn't, then the tables would obviously be turned. Still, though, I can't help but feel a Gatling unit, especially a Tank, deals more damage as it is now technically an "air unit" instead of just a ground vehicle. Partially why I was requesting more testing to be done with the Magnetron.

What happens when 2 magnetrons attack the same enemy at the same time?

can you give us your testing map/save? i wanna have some fun with no ai interrupts. btw, here is a list of what is the best everythingL allied plasma tank (that light thing)=building destroyer Magnetron: vehicle stopper soviet/allied tank: low soldiers killer (kills low quality infantry to start going with the rest) tesla tank: infantry killer apocalypse tank: best base shield this is just a small list, but hope this helps understand better use of them.

Heavier units do more damage than lighter ones when dropped on top of buildings. Terror drones do little, flak tracks moderate, grizzlies heavy, Rhinos extreme, and MCVs destroy just about everything. But what determines the damage they do? There is no internal weight value of units as far as I know. Is it their Strength (aka health) value?

Wow. I either forgot, or never knew, that magnetrons damaged buildings. I always thought they were a bad novelty unit to make enemy tanks vulnerable to mind control and Gatling tanks/turrets.

I understand the function of these things but I always saw them as a waste

Magnetron is NOT for casuals. Casuals, when playing Yuri, use Gatlings and Lashers(sometimes Masterminds), but never Magnetron, despite being useful against Navy(oh, and Casuals spam Boomers on "with water"(?) maps).

It is recommended that one you have to call the IFV to 8 cars and 8 engineers put in the IFV at once, or not. You must test the hypnosis of all units with and remote hypnosis. Thank You

funny though id u play mental omega, this vehicle is super effective aggainst building as it somehow causes damage to the buildings using magnetic pulse. And it can stun all unit except airborne ones.

As Yuri's "artillery" unit, it's useful... In general though, Magnetron is just situational...

Maybe if Yuri had his own campaign missions I'd know how to properly use the damned things.

If you drop a slave miner in water while its slaves are out and following it, I seem to recall the slaves turning neutral, not joining your side.

There should be a mod that adds interactions between Tesla Troopers/Coils/Tanks and Magnetrons, like friendly tesla units can power up their range or structure damage, or enemy magnetrons can be short-circuited/EMPed by Tesla units. Plus Tesla troopers should be vulnerable to the Magnetron. Also, maybe the reason the Magnetron causes lifted helicopters to make a death quote is because they might die, if they were enemies? I noticed you only tested on your own troops. Also, while I'm all for unit flexibility, lifting terror drones and dropping them right next to an undefended Magnetron is about as suicidal as you can get. LOL
