Rockets on Troops |
Am i missing something or is there any point in putting rockets on troops. I had loads of these rocket troops, then realised that they weren't getting into battle, then i looked at the component, and it can't actually fire at troops....
If they can't fire at troops whats their purpose on troops?

IIRC, weapon platforms with emisive armor can be invulnerable aginst "normal" troop/fighter weapons like DU/troop cannon/APB/MB so you need high damage weapons. I wish there were way how to set troops/fighters to defend those WPs (stay behind them and reveal themselves only to kill those with weapon that endangers emisive armor equipped WP) and way to set them to protect those with WP killers.
Instead of furball of everything and hoping that WP killers will get to WPs (from attackers point of view).

I also forgot to mention that they can target buildings as well.

It's useful if your enemy has active Weapon Platforms during a ground invasion. Same goes for Small AMTs on troops.
