All right guys all the things you have noticed about the game that should have been told to you in a tutorial but we as smart gamers (damn aint I full of it :D ) have figured out ourselves.

For instance "stacking" air units for an attack. By clicking on the available aircraft icon you can mix and match your offscreen aircraft to attack ground targets, (up to a max of 10), then you click on the screen as you would for a normal attack and the whole gaggle beats on the target area as long as they have targets.

A neat little trick for defending your base is to make sure the blackhawk does not land to the right of your barracks. Land it to the left side by the drone control towers/factories. Why you ask? Then the MV-44s stick around and the enemies never made it past them on me. As soon as I moved my blackhawk right to the beach near them they took off. Those miniguns are nice.

Anybody else notice anything??

Have you read the readme? The thing about stacking air units is in it...

I didn't know there was a readme (checked the directory, didn't see it). I guess that makes me 1337 at learning improvisations...:D

the MV-44s sticking around...thought it was cause of the blackhawk, doesnt look it any more. One time they stay one time they dont.....But I kind of have to say I find it a bit cheap that the FA-18s cannot attack the radar station or barracks BUT CAN get shot down out there. I also dont really understand why I cant carpet bomb with a force attack...I mean I know all munitions are guided....but cant I mark my own targets and bomb for area effect?? *grmbl* ok ok enough griping
