The Ion Cannon has been giving me a lot of trouble lately. Especially today, in the Valentine's Blitz event, many people seem to play with General Solomon as commander. This is probably due to the fact that all of the missile pads are right next to one another. Basically no matter where they strike, they will always hit and kill some units of yours, oftentimes clearing an entire pad. If timed right, that secures them an easy (if cowardly) win. :-(
How do you deal with this threat? Moving units out of the way almost never seems to work. I think I have managed to do it one or two times with a NOD bike, or with a Banshee, but that's about it. Most of the time everything in target and nearby is just flat out dead.
Also, I am talking about players here who do know how to defend their harvesters. If that weren't the case, I wouldn't need advice :-)
Do you have any tipps or tricks for me?
