Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 SovietOne tactic is that as soon as you have your war factory and you can build drones, you build 2 or three. Then if you have the radar and you know where the enemies miners are you send them in. At that stage the opponent usually don't have service depots and the ore miner explodes.!!

Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Another one with Soviets, is get 2 or 3 kirovs as fast as possible, and while they are almost finished, you make several simple units, or you press one of the F buttons which makes a sound. THe thing that gives Kirov's away is what they say when they are built. If you time it right your oppponent won't know about the Kirovs and usually ground defense is what they built first. Attack them and watch the base blow to bits.!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 Just a tip, if you want explosive units, take Libya and their trucks, instead of the terrorists. Although cheap, the terrorist can be killed way to easily and their damage is quite crap even with 5 it is probably impossible to destroy a refinery. A libyan truck can dessimate any buildings in it's vicinity so make sure that you don't park them in your base, I have lost games because of that mistake!!!

Tha_rooster Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 if you have problems getting drones through enemy defenses you can build hovercrafts or flacktracks and put the drones in them to get em through. You can protect em even further by putting them in a flacktrack and putting those flacktracks in a hovercraft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 A tactic I learned from my friend Tha Rooster is also done with Libyan trucks.You stick them into a hovercraft, which will protect them against several defenses, and will allow the trucks to get further within the base before destroying large portions of the base. You can probably fit 4 in a Hovercraft which is a lot of firepower! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha_rooster Posted April 5, 2003 Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 altough not so usefull in multiplayer with skrimish players you can mindcontrol a bus and put any units in them and drive em into the enemy base without defenses attacking them. (also leaving this bus inside the enemy base will reveal the shroud inside the enemy base, this can also be applied to cows or monkeys on the map ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 If you are playing allies against Brutal enemies, it is very handy to get several spies into their Refineries! These brutal enemies have huge cash reserves, and when there is still quite a lot of ore on the map, a spie can sometimes get you in the 10000 Cash which goes on for 1-2 more then it isn't worth it anymore. But still that money can be very useful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha Masta Posted April 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2003 When playing co-operative, it is sometimes very useful to build your bases together. THis gives you only one area to defend, adn you can help eachother very effectively. It is a very good method, the only drawback is that your ore miners will be hoarding in the same area. But sometimes defense is more important than money.It is up to you to decide! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha Masta Posted April 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2003 When scouting in the beginning of the game, use dogs, they move a LOT faster, and if you encounter any of the enemies scouting guys you can easily kill them, and they are cheap!

Tha_rooster Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 if you like short games you can do the following build base=> ore refinery=> barracks(start building engineers)=>build warfactory(build flacktrack)=>put engineers in, drive into enemy base capture his main base and perhaps other buildings and sell them immediatly (works especially good with noobs and most people don't have proper defenses by that time).+point if it works his a$$ is yours-point if you failed capturing his main base most of the time your simply gonna lose since you have no defenses at all.
