How to attack an air-access only base? 20+ turrets? :(
This tribe stores all its' elite 220 birds in this inaccessible base. Need some tips on how to attack it...

Also..is there any damned way to make a bird "land" if you had to dismount it with R instead of space bar? when they hover in a pen that's small with their wings spread (dactyl) the stupid thing blocks half the base movement wise.

DON'T

depends on the angle you shoot from, granted with there being 20, might be hard, so grenades and c4 are your friend

Yeah you can't get to the pillars obviously if you can't land anything...and if turrets are shooting nades AND rockets before the hit...kind of hard to believe they've allowed a mechanic that can't be raided?

whistle immediately with U after you dismount your bird. wings should tuck and it stops it from walking those few steps.

im pretty sure that base dont have pillars... i think is the base on the little island (Rock) where you only can get there with 1 bird. (you cant get inside from water)

Tame a few bullet sponges and send them to their death at the base of the pillars. Then proceed to demo.

the pillars are buggy as hell. I would pick out a place that you can land without getting shot up and accept that to get there, your gonna lose your bird. another thing is you could just fly disposable mounts into it. it cost bullets and if they are too busy making more bullets then they wont be doing much of anything else. If you want some bettter advise, start by telling us what kind of server is this on and how the base is built in details. I wish I found a base like this while I was playing often, would have loved to crack it.

My base isn't unraidable but it will be pain in the arse to get in

4 layers of 8 high metal walls, 10 raptors and sabers, 20 turrets on roof and 10 along the side walls all full with 3 generators filled with fuel so I can leave it on 24/7 :P

if that base is up in the volcano caldera then sorry man you ar straight out of luck unless you tame hundreds of argi's as cannon fodder you may just want to walk away from that one.
