How the hell do you play this??? At the moment I try and take the mid and go 0 miner, but decent sovs can get 2 or 3 wf really fast, pressure me with fodder the whole time and then smack me with a dread. Sovs going 4 or 5 wf and no tech is also really hard to stop. Is it better to keep your main base by the edge and make a nighthawk? marsh, adam, mason etc. get in here and give me some bo's! :p

btw I know about sending first engi to repair and taking the gems if you're in the corner.

Sounds like ur thinking too much like a sov player. Its a big map with lots of places that are vunerable. As allies u have larger numbers, more mobility and faster speed so the answer is simple: hit and run. Who cares how many war facs he has. Make him dance.

Camp and make tons of stuff take 4 oils on island with nighthawk will give u more cash paradrop your own base and make chrnosphere and kill all with chronosphere. And blow his oil up with aircraft carriers :) I've beat good sovs here after I lost the entire center early on before. Put tatyna in a nighthawk blow up his mcv or anything you can. Then tatyna the bridges when he crosses. Spam the center with griz then when your gems start to wear out make mirage he will die.

If you are asking how to win on land thats easy but when i played this the best soviets always spammed tons and tons of subs so the challenge was winning in the water not on land.make alot of submarine pens try to kill all navy and if you cant kill lab to stop dreads. The navy on the outer river is the navy im talking about not the pond in the middle where navy becomes more dangerous.

By the way i think this is one of the best maps on the game. The most skill involved in this map.

U dont have to take the tech :\

just go for the derricks. Scout. if u see a radar first play against a dred in the mid. if u see a second war fast. fight ground/air

biggest tip = scout everything with early rocky pretty fast.

0 miner is best unless your korea, then getting 4 planes quickly is nice.

i get a nighthawk and take topmid and botmid island derricks, i build my wf in center and get a barrack next to it, barrack to get engies and fodder/rockies later in game.

teching pretty fast is good, get 2wf first though unless you see him get a radar quickly, then get lab on 1 wf, if he is gettng radar immediately after wf he is rushing naval

after you tech keep getting defensive buildings-prism towers/pills and har****ing to the best of your ability.

if you see him get a battle lab immediately get a naval in center, depending on what you think is going to happen either get aegis or 3-4 dolphins first. you can very quikcly kill his naval

keep getting mirage tanks but try to control them so you dont get owned by deso.

paradrops can really really **** up anyone here. use them offensively in the back of their base

pp,
bar --> engi (tech), 1 dog, 1 engi (closest oil), 3 dogs, 3engi .
ref @ tech for gems
WF @ oil derrick --> 1 miner --> warp to gems
2nd WF
ref @ middle gems
AFC --> rockies or Eagles if your korea
ref @ main base ore

Here's your BO.

Ps. This map is much better as Korea than as USA


Oh and if you're scared for dreadnought, kill his techlab with 3 eagles or 3 harriers + 1-2 rockies that shoot a bit dmg on the tech b4 airstrike hits.


My job is done here B)



edit ;

oh and ofcourse if you stopped the initial attack phase, get a chopper for every other oil and paradrops
