Command your chosen faction and specialized general by racing to secure supply income, then leverage each side's unique units, superweapons, and General's Promotion powers to out-tech and overwhelm your opponent.
Getting Started
Your economy runs on gathering supplies: build a Supply Center near a supply dock and keep its collectors (USA and China supply trucks, GLA workers, or a China Supply Center's Chinook) hauling boxes nonstop, since idle collectors mean no cash. Add a second Supply Center or capture Oil Derricks with infantry for extra passive income.
Build a power source early (USA Cold Fusion Reactor or China Nuclear Reactor) because low power disables radar, superweapons, and defenses; the GLA needs no power at all, so its buildings keep working even when you knock out an enemy's grid.
Winning Strategies
Scout the enemy faction and counter its signature units: use anti-air like the USA Avenger or China Gattling Tank against aircraft, and answer massed Battlemaster or Overlord tanks with Tank Hunters, Comanche rockets, or GLA Rocket Buggies rather than trading tank for tank.
Spend General's Promotion points as you rank up and use your general powers on cooldown: USA A-10 strikes and Fuel Air Bombs, China Artillery Barrage, and GLA Anthrax Bombs or the Rebel Ambush can swing a fight or wipe a defended base with no unit cost.
