Just wondering, when do you guys look for expansions in generals. You know, those little secondary money depots. I grab two right at the start.

I use the main supplies to get up and going with a base, army, small airforce, and alternate money (Supply drop, Hackers, Blackmarket)

That takes forever. How can you build fast enough with just the main dock? I need about all the oil derricks and supply docks in the whole map b4 i have nearly enough to get started

You know theres 30,000 in the main dock, not just 3750 thats in the small docks.

 

And once you have like 40 hackers going in addition to a sizable army 60-100 units, then youve got so much money coming in that You just cant build enought power plants and nukes.

Yeah but I am talking about the early game how the money just does'nt come in fast enough, I don't care how much is in the pile.

Well just build more workers/supply trucks/choinooks.

Thats a problem, there is a max amount of workers you can have to where u are gathering at the fastest possible time

Build multiple supply centers

Huh? really that would work? I thought one chinook would take up the whole depot and block the others from getting through. Same applies to 4 trucks/8workers

[Cygnus X-1 12]

They cant unlaod at the same time (chinooks) but there can be multiple per supply center. Not over three, then they will jam up.

 

The workers can do like 10 per supply stash. the trucks maybe 4.
