RPG?! Last I saw it was a RTS.

I have played a little bit of it, but my computer is so shitty that it runs very slowly even on minimum settings. As a result, I have never attempted to play the campaigns. What is the final China mission like?

bitchin' hard. it starts in the middle of a battle. you start in an area with no resources. the enemy comes at you continually, until you destroy their outpost. i go that far. somewhere on the far side of the map, there is a huge fucking enemy base. waves of tanks, bomb trucks, suicide bombers, toxin tractors and other shit comes at you. you have to build a base fast, but there are few resources on my side of the map. i tried to build an outpost, but it is always crushed. and the kicker is, if you have more than $5000, the enemy shoots scuds with biological warheads at you.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKk

ps: RTS? oh, i dunno. i dont play these often, but i liked this one, until this mission

Too bad you are China and not USA. They could clean the bio-radiation up and stop some missiles with their lasers.

I doubt I will say anything you don't already know but... Dragon tanks should take care the any infantry. Use swarms of China's main tank (battlemasters I think) to deal with everything else. Overlords are too expensive early on to use effectively. Your enemy is swarming you; make a strong defensive position with those towers that boost your troops and use swarms of your own. If they are using lots of bio stuff and toxin tracs, then use infantry sparingly. It sounds like you can't even get up and running though.

ps: RPG=Role Playing Game RTS=Real Time Strategy

oh of course, RTG. i am sleepy today

i will try Dragons. they are really good, but are very weak defensively.
no, i cant even get started. the problem is getting enough resources, but i also wasted money on infantry, which is useless on this level. the rocket buggies they have are annoying too: they attack from really far away

i am not a strategist; i usually make zillions of troops and overun the map. doesnt work on this one

i hate being the US, but i do like their weaponry. Comanches and Hummers are very useful. China's Dragon tanks rock, but are too easy to kill
GLA has the bomb trucks. i like those, but again they are weak defensively. they are usually destroyed before reaching their target, unless you disguise them

Uhg, I remember rocket buggies. China has those towers that heal troops in a radius, right. If the buggies tend to attack from a certain direction, place some of your tanks over there. When the buggies come in and attack a tank, retreat him to a healing tower and move the others out to take out the buggies.

You are putting up a hacker site right? That is one of the things I liked about China.

ImusWallower

rocket buggies are the worst. they are usually what do me in.

gonna try that. Overlords can have propaganda towers which heal also, but as you said, they are really pricey at the beginning

i want to get the expansion: the US has microwave tanks. that sounds like fun

ImusWallower

i didnt last time, because i tried to just build tanks and blitz the GLA. and since i made this thread, you can guess the outcome

I bought the deluxe pack so I got both. GLA gets the battle bus.
