Try different tactics in skirmish games. Although the computer isn't nearly as good as a human player it will help to find out what side/general you like best and how to device a good counter against specific types of units.

You can also practice on-line against other players for the experience of human opponents.

 

Practice makes perfect, so practice a lot.

since the pattern predictable..you can try various kind of tactic...

i saw lots of people where they game play not much different than AI...

Playing Brutual AI is normally the ultimate in training for people. Most of the time, the financial management of the AI is better than that of people and thus harder.

yea so um id say play brutal AI alot and learn off of it...but start to add your own touch to Brutal AI's strategy.....but a few simple tips are to have a well rounded budgetted defence, a good ,money supply before all else, maybe what i do is make a bunch o dozers so i can build really fast...usually my game starts with pp then supply center then i send dozers to where i want to build defences while having one build a bar...you kno?? if you have time hide a dozer somewhere i guess that could act as insurance....otherwise do an early rush i duno

my tactic depend on maps...if there is oil derrick near by i build bunker then supply center...i train 2 soldier to capture the oil derrick...to make quick bucks...2000 for starter is a LOT...

One thing: Play with the genral that beats his, e.g. he chooses Infantry General, choose Toxin, Tank, Laser (laser good for all except nuke, which I think has no weakness)...

[VampireA05 0]

nukies...erm....what about super weapon?? hmph..no fair either...

 

anyway, i usually play toxin... try and do some experiment...

[Mr_Lee_ 0]

Playing as the Nuke General is the obvious choice. Extra firepower over everyone and cheap nukes means you've got the game half won by buying basic tanks.

Just watch out if you pack them in large groups though. Killing one tank could cause a chain reaction, blowing them all up.

yeah..sometimes, its difficult to manage china's forces thou...

 

some cases, your MIG accidentally hit your unit...say good bye to 'em..tanks flying without wings...even your infantry will throw a 'party & play guitars' when they are fried..

 

use it rite, you'll probably win it...

Still, Laser is all-around, even against Nuke... It all just goes down on the player... If he chooses the Nuke or Laser but is stupid, he still won't win...

i got a friend who really good with infantry gen...worse, i use Airforce...

people always say, Airforce beat 'em all..but not Infantry...they really underestimate infantry...

 

lasers...well balance i think..got tanks & defences that can shoot accurately...just watch out for the power..i experience power down for 10 sec..and you can see how devastating people can do damages to you...

Infantry has great AA with mini-gunners, gattling cannons and rocket troopers. Even king raptor cannot seriously damage 10 minigunners, who in return can kill the raptor very easy.

bullets...they look 'sharp'..i wonder why they dont include snipers??

[Thorak 0]

Should be fair. USA has pathfinders, GLA has Jarmen Kell.

China has no equal. Lotus cant attack only capture or disable exposing herself and being unable to defend herself sucks.

Then helo drop her and a squad to defend her (as Infantry General) while she does her "thang"... And make alot of decoy Helixes while you're at it and send them all together, which decreases the chances of the main package shot down alot less... And equip those decoys with Gattling guns while the main one with bunker... Also, the squad I use for Chinese helos is usually this: 1 Black Lotus, 1 Hacker (decoy for BL), 4 Minigunners, 4 Tank Hunters... :wink:

Inf General having snipers would remove the neeed to engage the enemy on a level playing field most of the time, and this is boring.

 

Bl, despite not being destructive has the best support potential in the game. Col. Burton can't destroy buildings in one hit like BL can. This puts her way above both Col. Burton and JK.
