Problems with ork

[Hydronis]

I am playing he dark crusade campaign as orks and for some odd reason when my troops are attacking hqs and all other people around hem are deadthey take damage and die.Also i got the upgrade for the plasma gun and it shoots the exact same as the first gun and does the same damage. well if you have any insight just post and ill respond.

Would you happen to be fighting Imperial Guard when this happens?

Their troops can bunker up inside of some of their buildings, like their HQ building, and shoot at you from inside.

The other possibility is that there's a turret nearby that you aren't noticing. They have a rather longer range, and may not be completely within the Fog of War you've revealed, just on the edge.

[Hydronis]

no actually this has happened to me fighting chaos necrons and ig plus there turrets were all capped off in the far end of the base

[Oddjob]

If it's Chaos you're facing, it's possible they researched inflitration and are shooting you with stealthed units. It can be tough to spot them sometimes. Their Chaos Space Marine squads and Cultist squads can both infiltrate.

Get a Warboss, Big Mek, or a Mega Armored Nobz squad up there, they reveal infiltrated units.

[AchillesHeel]

Yeah, could be a variety of things, as Oddjob says. Does the AI ever construct minefields? I don't recall ever seeing them, but could be those, too.

[Divinatus]

I've only seen ai minefields in stronghold missions.. so I would assume no. as for fighting the IG = bunkering Chaos = infltrating and crons = assumably a shadow shroud or whatsitsname that infiltrates the units near him.

[Unforsaken]

Most likly cause of infiltrated units overwise its problely just AI problem and not so sure about the Plasma pistol and that... maybe a exploit is at hand! (Let's hope they're be a patch out soon)

[Chaz]

It is not the cause of infiltrated units. I've experienced this as well and it appears to be some sort of glitch with the Ork campaign. It happens with every races' buildings even if all units/turrets have been eliminated (Infiltrated and otherwise). Ranged or Melee, assaulting enemy bases causes Ork units to slowly take damage and die.

[LordAba]

I noticed that too. No bunkered IG or mines, or I would have surly seen the effects (as my graphics are high). I've also learned how to spot invis units on the map (though telling the computer where they are still doesn't work ) and it wasn't that either.

Not sure the solution, but certainly a wierd bug. I noticed it against chaos, BTW.

[your_neighbour]

Maybe it's the corruption field?

[zammE-]

Doesnt chaos have this corruption thing that damages attackers on their buildings? Or am I completely off stray?

[Carnalfex]

corruption degens enemy morale and improves friendly HP regen - however it is fairly insignificant

[them apples]

I beat the ork campaign yesterday, all I can say is gorgutz fully upgraded is a beast.

[Amazing Muffin]

I think it is because the warboss has an AoE attack?

[Hydronis]

ok i just found out that his best gun shoots like the first one but you can see on the ground the little explosions like the big meks mega shoota.Also i really like how they allowed the bm the ability to fire on the move with the mega shoota

[Arsonide]

I had this problem too! In fact I stopped playing Ork in the campaign because of it. It's not any sort of unit - entire platoons of orks (5-6 squads) will die at the exact same time for no apparent reason when attacking enemy HQs of any race. Ranged attackers are unaffected, so usually I had to come in with armor to finish off the HQ. But there was a warboss there so I would have seen any infiltrated units, and all the enemy units except the HQ were dead every time it happened - and it happened many more times than once.
