    The scale of this game baffles me, in others, if you lose your medium tanks, even 5 of them, you've probably lost the game, but here you can lose 500 and nothing happens...
    That's how total annihilation is..

    Because if you have 500 tanks, obviously you have a ****load of resources, and you are spitting them out like they are nothing.. right? Right.. so as you send those "500" out, you are already working on getting more...

    etc etc etc...


    I love this game though..


    I wish they had LAN on the demo so I could try it out with my friend :hmm:

      What i got from watching the AI in Skirmish was they build 4 Mass Extractors on the Green Squares (bit thingy ) and start to build 3 power generators in the middle, then a Land Factory next to them and proceeding to build 4 Power Gens around that building and producing 6 Tech1 Engys. Each time a new Land Factory was build 4 Power Gens were built close by it, after getting 4-6 Land Factorys they will build 4 power generators around the mass extractors.

            Do you mean to say you can build more than one extractor on the same patch?

            I know that in about 3 months I'm going to think about this thread and think "what a naive retard", happens with every game in its infancy.

                  You know what they say about making assumptions, right? :p

                      Great, now I know what day all the whining 10 year old gits will get the game. Good thing they don't last long on this genre.

                      "OMFG U MAPHAXER"

                      Ah, and what's with the adjacency bonus? You can stick powerplants across 4 sides of a building to get the full bonus - but then your units that are made in that building can't move out???

                            If it's the limited edition, you won't be recieving your copy. All the manuals and unit sheets are in French :p

                            My unit sheet is french

                            *insert joke about surrendering here, loosely tied to supreme commander*
