[basic strategy] [protect your harvester] [kill enemy harvester] [GDI defence] [NOD defence] [GDI offense] Some words Tiberian Sun will require a different way of thinking as opposed to other C&C games. For example you can't do "tank rush" like in Red Alert.The game units is better balanced this time, and no units can handle the job by itself. The first thing to do is to scout the battlefield. When you start a game you must make some infantry to scout in all map corners. You should scout:
Set up air and land defence all over your base and that will prevent early attacks. And don't forget to set up defence near your HQ to protect early engineers attack. If you don't got any harvesters you don't get money. Always keep units near harvesters in case the enemy tries to destroy it. You can assign units to the harvester. To do this select the guarding unit and press down G until you select the unit that you want to guard. When a enemy harvester is destroyed it will slow down enemy unit production. The best GDI defence: put walls with gates and lots RPG turrets. To be protected against air attcks put up SAM turrets and Firewall Defence. If you're playing against NOD and he has allot Artillery then use Orca Bombers to destroy the Artillery. To keep him from getting to your base by burrowing then I suggest you put lots concrete all over your base. Make it usually about 3-5 squares away from any building. Then at the edge of the concrete put both RPG turrets and Vulcan Cannon Turrets, this will take care of any units that come out of the ground. Always watch out for the voice saying "Missile launch detected" Wait 5 sec then activate your Firewall Defence. Once the missile has been destroyed then deactivate it so it doesn't have to recharge again. Another good strategy is to put a Mobile Sensor Array in your base so at least you know when the enemy is coming The best NOD defence: GDI have the best air units and it's important to put lots of sam sites in your base. Don't forget to cloak your base, it's really important to have stealth generators all over your base. It's harder for your enemy to know what your strategy is, when he can't see it! Your enemy wants to destroy your power plants, if he manage to take out your power plants he can see your entire base, he knows your strategy and he will properly attack you when your defence is weak. Always have extra power plants, if you have low power, you are in trouble! Also try not to place your buildings close together, otherwise they will expose each other when they're destroyed. Mobile Sensor Arrays can see your base even when it's cloaked. Use air units to wipe them out before they can detect you. |
