/~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\ !+------------------------------+! !|ROBYRT'S SUPREME COMMANDER FAQ|! !| VERSION 1.0 |! !+------------------------------+! \~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~/ ------------ INTRODUCTION ------------ This Supreme Commander FAQ is currently not focused on the storyline or flavorful aspects of the game, but on the technical and data-driven aspects. Subjective evaluations of usefulness will be the LAST thing I add, because I'm not the world's best SupCom player and I don't want to unfairly prejudice the reader. It's a work in progress, but a Day One reference for American readers shouldn't go amiss. If you have any questions, corrections or additions, please direct them to robyrt@marney.org. TERMINOLOGY: Throughout this guide, "Commander" and "ACU" are used interchangeably, as are "Subcommander" and "SCU". Resource costs are usually put in terms of M, E, T: Mass, Energy, Time to build. Each unit of time (T) is 1 second for a unit with build speed 1. For example, the Commander has build speed 10, so he can build a unit with cost T300 in 300/10 = 30 seconds, and if its mass cost is M60, he uses 2 mass/sec.

CONTROLS =========== Most controls are intuitive and/or covered by the tutorial, but there are a couple quirks to make note of. Note that all modifiers (Shift, Ctrl, Alt, etc.) can be freely combined, except where otherwise stated. One particularly useful undocumented shortcut is: Ctrl + Z: Select all units of the selected type(s) on the map. For example, if bombers are group 4, pressing 4, Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+4 at any time will make sure all your bombers are in group 4 so they can strike when the time is right. -------------------- 1.1. SELECTING UNITS -------------------- Left Click: Select unit Double Left Click: Select all units of this type on screen Left Click on nothing: Deselect all units Left Click and drag: Select all units in this box * If your selection is primarily mobile units, only the mobile units will be selected. 1: Select all units in Group 1 Ctrl + 1: Set selected units as Group 1 * All 10 number keys work for making/selecting groups. * Units can belong to multiple groups. * Your groups will appear as icons on the right side of the screen. Ctrl + X: Select all units and buildings Ctrl + A: Select all air units Ctrl + S: Select all sea units Ctrl + L: Select all land units Ctrl + B: Select all engineers and the Commander Ctrl + Z: Select all units of this type on the map Ctrl + C: Select all units and buildings on screen Ctrl + Period: Select all engineers on screen Ctrl + H: Select all factories on screen Comma: Go to Commander Alt + Comma: Select Commander Period: Go to nearest idle engineer Alt + Period: Select nearest idle engineer Shift + Period: Cycle through idle engineers H: Select nearest factory Ctrl + Shift + L: Select nearest land factory Ctrl + Shift + A: Select nearest air factory Ctrl + Shift + S: Select nearest naval factory ------------------ 1.2. GIVING ORDERS ------------------ Right Click: Give default order * On terrain: Move * On enemies: Attack * Engineers will Capture enemies instead. * On allies or construction: Assist * Engineers will Repair construction instead. * Transports will Transport allied units instead. This order works even if assisting a factory. * On transports: Transport * On ferry points: Transport * Transports will Ferry from that ferry point instead. * On a Move waypoint: Patrol * On an Attack waypoint: Coordinated Attack * Coordinated Attacks must be issued in reverse order of speed: artillery first, aircraft last. All groups will attack simultaneously. Right Click and hold: Move in formation Ctrl + Right Click: Move in default formation * While holding Right Click, press Left Click to cycle through formations. * Taking formation takes priority over arriving at the location. Units at the front may actually go backwards to accomplish this. Ctrl + Alt + Right Click: Attack Move * Attack Move instructs units to pursue enemies before completing their move order. It is denoted as a red line with a blue Move waypoint. Shift + Right Click: Queue this command after the current one Shift + Left Click and hold on a command: Move the location of this command R: Repair E: Reclaim P: Patrol * Engineers set to Patrol will automatically Repair and Reclaim. A: Attack C: Capture S: Stop D: Dive / Surface F: Ferry * A transport told to Ferry will create a ferry beacon at its current location and start ferrying units to the chosen destination. * A transport I: Assist * Engineers and the Cybran Mantis will Repair units they are assisting. * Other units will deploy in protective formation around the unit. M: Move U: Transport Z: Pause Construction O: Overcharge L: Launch Tactical Missile N: Nuke [: Cycle Fire State (left bracket) * Fire States in order: Fire At Will (default), Return Fire, Hold Fire. Ctrl + K: Kamikaze (Suicide) There are no shortcuts for upgrading units, toggling on/off cloaking and stealth, sacrificing, or ordering factories to repeat orders; they must be manually clicked in the interface. ------------- 1.3.

UEF UNITS ============ The UEF's unique units are the 3 experimentals and the T3 air Heavy Gunship. UEF standard armaments are traditional shells and guns. They tend to have more armor and less speed than other factions' equivalent units. UEF can use a good mix of land units to combat other races' single unit swarms early on, then establish an advantage with its T3 siege bots and Heavy Gunship. They lack a T3 carrier because their T4 sea unit is a carrier anyway. The UEF ACU can upgrade his Resource Allocation System for an economic boost while keeping his defensive options open. ------------------- 2.1. UEF LAND UNITS ------------------- 2.1.1.

CYBRAN UNITS =============== The Cybran unique units are the 3 experimentals and the T2 mobile radar jammer. Many Cybran units also have significant differences from their UEF and Aeon counterparts - walking destroyers, cloaking land scouts, upgradeable shields, subs with deck guns, tanks with torpedoes, etc. Cybran units tend to do odd "extra" things as well as their primary purpose. Cybrans have no mobile shield generator or Heavy Shield Generator, although their shields can be upgraded to cover as much area as heavy shields. Their ACU also lacks shields, but offers invisibility as well as a variety of weapon upgrades for all situations. In general, Cybran units are more expensive than UEF or Aeon counterparts. ---------------------- 3.1. CYBRAN LAND UNITS ---------------------- 3.1.1.

AEON UNITS ============= The Aeon's unique units are the 3 experimentals and the T1 Attack Boat. Aeon units are all focused towards a single purpose, often with only one gun. They tend to have less health, but make up for it in maneuverability. The Aeon has a powerful navy, especially if you include the Aurora T1 hovercraft. Aeon engineers can sacrifice themselves to add some of their cost towards a building project, which can be handy in a pinch if you need to finish a crucial unit or get back down from the unit limit. The Aeon ACU can become a formidable fighter with gun and shield upgrades or an economic powerhouse with its Advanced Resource Allocation upgrade.

FACTION COMPARISON ===================== This section goes systematically through all the units, seeing which side has the better version of that unit. Sometimes the answer is unclear - for example, many Aeon ships are more cost-efficient but lack anti-air guns. These comparisons often take the cost, health and speed differences between the 3 factions into account even if it's not explicitly stated. --------------- 5.1. LAND UNITS --------------- In general, UEF land units have more armor and less speed, while Aeon units have more speed and less armor, while Cybran units are balanced between them. Take this under consideration while you read the evaluations below. ENGINEERS UEF is average at T1 and T2; its T3 Engineer costs more. Cybran costs more at T1 and T2 and has more storage. Aeon has less storage, costs less, and has the sacrifice ability. While the UEF engineer takes a couple more shots to bring down, the Aeon engineer can simply sacrifice when it's in trouble, and it's cheaper and faster, which lets the Aeon expand despite other economic disadvantages. Advantage: Aeon LAND SCOUT UEF costs very slightly more. Cybran cloaks instead of having a gun. Aeon costs very slightly less. The Cybran Land Scout is effective throughout T1 level because it can simply cloak and provide mobile radar coverage for your land forces. You can't say the same for the others. Advantage: Cybran LIGHT ASSAULT BOT UEF does less damage. Cybran is average. Aeon has shorter range but does more damage. Light assault bots are so fast that their best strategy is to swarm the enemy, avoiding shots and closing the distance. Pure damage is all that matters. Advantage: Aeon The TANK slot is filled by 3 completely different units: UEF MEDIUM TANK, which is average. Cybran HEAVY ASSAULT BOT, which repairs, costs more, and fires a laser. Aeon LIGHT TANK, which hovers and has more range and damage than UEF but has 1/2 the armor. All three are useful in their own way - it's impossible to choose. MOBILE ANTI-AIR GUN Cybran has 2/3 the armor, does 1/2 the damage against aircraft, but can switch to shooting land targets (equivalent to 1/2 a Hunter's firepower). The famed Cybran versatility strikes again - where the other factions are simply guessing that they'll come under bomber attacks, Cybrans can send them in right alongside their other units. Advantage: Cybran MOBILE LIGHT ARTILLERY UEF has more armor and fires a wide scatter shot with tracer fire to extend its sight range. Cybran costs more and fires an area-effect stun shot. Aeon fires a single, more powerful artillery shot, and is slower. Both UEF and Aeon artillery fill a crucial piece of the land army: UEF needs a way to deal with light assault bots and the scatter shot can often kill 2-3 at once, while Aeon needs a way to deal with turrets through sheer firepower. The only real loser is the Cybrans, who don't need a wide-area projectile when their normal ground units rarely miss anyway. Advantage: UEF, Aeon HEAVY TANK UEF is average. Cybran costs more and fires a laser. Aeon has a shield but less total armor and does more damage. Cybran and Aeon work better against T1 units - Cybran is harder to dodge and Aeon can survive small skirmishes without a scratch. On rough terrain, you'll wish you had UEF or Aeon, but against decent defenses, you'll wish you had UEF or Cybran. It's a toss-up. MOBILE AA FLAK ARTILLERY Aeon hovers, moves faster, and does more damage. Most players don't know the Aeon can support their Auroras and Attack Boats with sub-proof mobile anti-air. It's a very good unit. Advantage: Aeon MOBILE MISSILE LAUNCHER UEF has less armor and fires a single big rocket. Cybran has more armor, fires several smaller rockets, and is very slightly faster. It also doesn't have to face forward to fire. Aeon is essentially the exact average of the other two. The Cybran missile launcher is so vital that they normally get built in a 1:1 ratio with heavy tanks. They deal with land units and structures equally well. The faster firing rate means it's less likely to waste shots on units that are already dead. Advantage: Cybran AMPHIBIOUS TANK UEF has more armor, more speed, hovers, and does slightly more damage. Cybran has a torpedo and two different guns instead of one cannon. Aeon has a T1 hover tank, not a T2 one. Although the torpedo sounds like a great idea, it's too weak to matter. The value of an amphibious attack is not being sneaky as you dodge radar by being underwater, but actually attacking a base when you get there. Of course, those of you planning an amphibious tank rush probably played Aeon anyway. Advantage: UEF MOBILE SHIELD GENERATOR UEF has more armor. Cybran has no mobile shields. Aeon hovers, has a better shield, and costs less to build and operate. Just like the mobile flak gun, Aeon's would have been a better unit even if it didn't hover. (Shielded ships are pretty crazy.) Advantage: Aeon Only the Cybrans have a MOBILE STEALTH FIELD GENERATOR, which covers the same range as a mobile shield generator at double the cost and half the armor. Of course, the advantage of being able to build artillery or move a task force closer to the enemy base undetected more than makes up for the cost. SIEGE ASSAULT BOT UEF has a shield. Cybran has an EMP death blast, has less armor and costs more. Aeon has more armor and a repair function, but does less damage. Like the Cybran Mantis, the Aeon Harbinger's extra repair ability is wonderful, but the fact that it takes more damage than a UEF bot with full shields without costing 25 energy per unit is what puts it over the top. Advantage: Aeon MOBILE HEAVY ARTILLERY UEF is average. Cybran is faster and shoots a projectile that does half the damage over a very wide area. Aeon can move while firing and shoots a projectile that does twice the damage over a smaller area. While the Cybran artillery can really punish an opponent who builds his stuff too close together, the Aeon artillery packs so much more punch that you can destroy their defenses at the same rate, and it can run away better. Advantage: Aeon -------------- 5.2. AIR UNITS -------------- In general, all air units have the same cost, speed and weapon range. UEF air units have the most armor, while Cybran units have the least armor. AIR SCOUT UEF and Aeon are virtually identical. Cybran has better sight range and is slightly cheaper. Advantage: Cybran ATTACK BOMBER Cybran is more expensive. Aeon has a single stun bomb that does less damage. The single bomb makes the Aeon bomber less useful against the land units it's designed to stun, and the low damage makes it less useful against structures. Advantage: UEF INTERCEPTOR has no significant differences. LIGHT AIR TRANSPORT has no significant differences. TORPEDO BOMBER Cybran costs less Mass but more Energy. Aeon has a depth charge instead of a torpedo. I'm not sure whether torpedo defenses kill depth charges; if they don't, the Aeon is clearly superior. Otherwise, the effectively cheaper Cybran unit wins. GUNSHIP UEF can transport one unit and does slightly more damage, but has weak armor on par with the Cybran gunship. Aeon does much less damage (I think). The UEF doesn't get many units with extra abilities, but this is a real winner. Advantage: UEF AIR TRANSPORT UEF has two anti-air guns as well as a light anti-ground turret. Cybran has an anti-ground stun shot and one anti-air gun. Aeon has four anti-air guns. If you drop in the middle of battles, the Cybran transport can be useful, but the Aeon transport is much more likely to live to make another transport drop. Advantage: Aeon SPY PLANE Cybran costs more, has sonar, and can stealth itself. Aeon has better sight range. You'll only need one spy plane, so cost is not an issue - and with the Cybran spy plane, you get value for your mass, with the only airborne sonar plus the ability to circle outside of air defenses undetected. Advantage: Cybran AIR SUPERIORITY FIGHTER Cybran has stealth and only does 1/2 the damage (I think) While stealthing your fighters may convince your opponent to send in a rash gunship assault, it'll only work once, and after that Cybran fighters are just a bad value compared to a flock of interceptors. Advantage: UEF, Aeon STRATEGIC BOMBER UEF drops a standard big bomb. Cybran drops a weaker, wide-area bomb. Aeon drops a more powerful, more precise bomb and has tactical missile defense instead of anti-air turrets. While each have their uses, the UEF does everything right: air defense, a big enough bomb to make a difference on suicide base strikes, and enough area to destroy a group of buildings in one pass. Advantage: UEF Only the UEF has a HEAVY GUNSHIP, but it's almost impossible to stop a force of these guys from killing any unshielded target. They're very good, but also very expensive and can be hit by other gunships. ---------------- 5.3. NAVAL UNITS ---------------- In general, UEF sea units have more armor, while Aeon units are cheaper, and Cybran vessels are inferior in both areas. Keep this in mind as I give many Cybran naval units the nod - their early sea forces are terrible. Only the Aeon needs an ATTACK BOAT to protect its sea fleet. It's a pain to maneuver but takes valuable torpedoes meant for your subs while allowing you to build air defense quickly if necessary. ATTACK SUBMARINE UEF has more armor and less damage and sonar range. Cybran is average. Aeon has less armor and does more damage but lacks any surface guns. The Aeon sub doesn't need to surface; it does its extra damage already. Advantage: Aeon FRIGATE UEF has radar jamming Cybran is average Aeon has better range and sonar range, armor equal to the UEF, and torpedo defense instead of anti-air guns. UEF radar jamming is extremely valuable since naval battles usually happen by radar, but the Aeon frigate is more lethal to land and sea targets alike. Advantage: UEF, Aeon CRUISER UEF has an extra cruise missile but weak AA guns. Cybran only costs as much as UEF, but has loads of AA firepower and an Air Staging Facility. Aeon has an actual gun to go along with its support abilities. These ships are actually pretty balanced - each has its ups and downs. DESTROYER UEF has less torpedo and anti-torpedo defenses. Cybran is amphibious, does more damage, and is slower. Aeon has more armor, no anti-air guns, and a single powerful cannon. I can't praise the Cybran destroyer enough. Even if it weren't amphibious, its torpedoes give it more utility against roving subs. Advantage: Cybran CARRIER UEF has no carrier. Cybran has tactical missile defense and the same kind of short-ranged but powerful anti-air guns as the cruiser, and is cheaper. Aeon has anti-air missiles and more armor. A T3 ship is more likely to need gunship and missile defense than it is to need to accurately shoot down fighters - a carrier will always have its own fighters ready to launch. Advantage: Cybran BATTLESHIP UEF has better range on its anti-air guns. Cybran has powerful torpedoes as well as weaker main guns. Aeon is cheaper, lacks anti-air, and has a bigger main gun. Aeon's Battleship is so much cheaper that it gets the nod although it's technically inferior to the Cybran monster. Advantage: Aeon STRATEGIC MISSILE SUBMARINE UEF is lackluster. Cybran has torpedoes and the same armor as UEF. Aeon has better sonar range. For the same price, the Cybran sub is an actual sub, not just a sneaky missile platform. Advantage: Cybran ------------- 5.4. DEFENSES ------------- T1 POINT DEFENSE Cybran fires smaller shots faster. Aeon fires a single, more damaging ballistic shot. T1 defenses are meant to stop small, fast units, not single huge threats. Advantage: Cybran T1 ANTI-AIR TURRETS, T1 WALL SECTION are functionally identical. T1, T2, T3 RADAR SYSTEMS are functionally identical. T1, T2 SONAR SYSTEMS are functionally identical. T1 TORPEDO LAUNCHER Aeon does less damage. Advantage: UEF, Cybran T2 POINT DEFENSE UEF is more expensive and shoots average but slow shells. Cybran is cheaper, has more armor, and shoots much weaker lasers. Aeon has less armor and fires much more powerful slow beams. Cybran point defense may not do much damage, but it won't miss fast units and won't damage your own units. Aeon point defenses' pure firepower and need for shielding make them better in the end game versus T3 siege bots, though. Advantage: Cybran, Aeon T2 ANTI-AIR FLAK ARTILLERY UEF does average damage. Aeon does more damage. Cybran does less damage. Advantage: Aeon T2 ARTILLERY INSTALLATION UEF has more armor and does average damage. Cybran costs less and does half the damage of UEF. Aeon is more expensive and does double the damage of UEF. The chief advantage of artillery is its pure firepower. Sure, Cybrans can throw theirs up faster, but that's only a real issue when building a secret artillery base with stealth generators, which is very situational. Advantage: Aeon T2 TORPEDO LAUNCHER UEF has more armor and does less damage. Cybran has less armor and does much more damage. The armor difference is really quite small, and the Cybran torpedoes do almost 50% more damage than the other two sides. Advantage: Cybran TACTICAL MISSILE DEFENSE Aeon costs half of what the other two do. Advantage: Aeon TACTICAL MISSILE LAUNCHER Cybran is more expensive. Aeon is cheaper. Operating costs (to build the missile) are identical. Advantage: Aeon SHIELD GENERATOR UEF has a wider shield and costs more, and can upgrade to T3. Cybran costs 1/2 the others, has double the armor and a very weak shield, but is upgradeable all the way up to UEF T3 shields' level. Aeon doesn't get adjacency bonuses but is cheaper to operate, has a smaller and more durable shield, and has less armor. This is too close to call. Aeon shields are superior at T2 but can't be upgraded on the spot to T3, UEF shields cover more area, and Cybran shields let you have a T3 shield without a T3 factory but cost an awful lot to get to that point - but you can stop as soon as your defenses are covered. STEALTH FIELD GENERATOR UEF has 4 times the armor of the other factions and only covers 2/3 the operating radius. Cybran is cheaper. Aeon is more expensive. Armor is useless for a stealth field, since the buildings there will be marked anyway as soon as it's discovered. Advantage: Cybran ANTI-AIR SAM LAUNCHER UEF is average. Cybran has less health and does more damage. Aeon has more health and does less damage. Again, this is a toss-up. I'm inclined to go Cybran because if the enemy has enough forces to start attacking your anti-air turrets, you're already losing. Advantage: Cybran HEAVY ARTILLERY INSTALLATION UEF has more armor and costs less energy to fire but does more damage. Cybran has less armor and range, is cheaper to build, and has a bigger area of effect. Aeon costs more to build and fire, has less area of effect, and has more range. Again, armor and firing cost differences are marginal. There was a real attempt to balance the three sides, but UEF's heavy armor is offset by the ubiquitous shields around T3 artillery, and all the shots do so much damage that they'll probably kill anything they touch anyway. It's a tossup between Cybrans' ability to get one up quickly and hit things with their first few shells and the Aeon's large range advantage. Advantage: Cybran, Aeon HEAVY SHIELD GENERATOR UEF is larger but more expensive to build and operate. Cybran (after 4 upgrades) is strictly inferior in all respects. Aeon doesn't get adjacency bonuses but has a stronger shield. Aeon's shields are better in the front lines, while UEF's shields are better for covering generator/fabricator farms. Advantage: UEF, Aeon SONAR PLATFORM (Mobile) UEF has a torpedo launcher and more armor. Cybran costs much more to build and operate Aeon has torpedo defense and is cheaper This is the most perplexing balance issue. Cybrans' weaker navy takes an even bigger hit with a Sonar Platform that's twice as expensive to build and use. It doesn't even have any extra abilities, unlike the rest of their navy! UEF is the clear winner, as it can actually defeat a couple subs. Advantage: UEF STRATEGIC MISSILE DEFENSE and LAUNCHER are functionally identical. ------------ 5.5. ECONOMY ------------ In general, economic units are functionally identical for all three sides. T1 HYDROCARBON POWER PLANTS Aeon is slightly smaller. This is never really an issue, as you can't put hydrocarbon plants right where you want them. T2 POWER GENERATORS UEF: death explosion 500 damage, size 2.2 (43m) square Cybran: death explosion 1500 damage, size 1.3 (25.4m) square Aeon: death explosion 1500 damage, size 2.2 (43m) square While it's nice to have a "safe" death explosion so you can easily queue up adjacent power generators, the three seconds it saves you isn't as impressive as the Cybran size advantage. Advantage: Cybran T3 POWER GENERATORS UEF: size 3 (58.6m) square Cybran: size 4 (78.1m) square Aeon: size 4 (78.1m) square Space is often at a premium in T3 bases, so this is a nice bonus. Advantage: UEF FACTORIES In general, Cybran factories have the least armor and UEF the most armor. Cybran factories can store more Mass and Energy and are cheaper to upgrade, with Aeon factories being the most expensive to upgrade. While UEF's factories are very resistant to being destroyed during an unsuccessful attack, the Cybran economic advantage gives them a clear lead. Advantage: Cybran T1 NAVAL FACTORY Aeon is slightly smaller (I think). Advantage: Aeon T2 AIR FACTORY UEF costs more Mass and Time and less Energy to upgrade. Advantage: Cybran, Aeon ----------------------- 5.6. EXPERIMENTAL UNITS ----------------------- ARMORED COMMAND UNIT UEF has more armor and does less damage. Cybran does more damage and regenerates faster but has less armor. Aeon is average. Before upgrades, the Cybran ACU's regen rate (15 instead of 10 hp/s) gives it effectively more health than the others, and it does more damage to boot. Advantage: Cybran Each side's Quantum Gateway is identical. SUPPORT COMMAND UNIT UEF is average. Cybran regenerates faster, just like the ACU, but has less storage. Aeon costs more, has 5000 more armor, and does much more damage. If you're pumping out SCUs as durable engineers, Cybran is the correct choice, but if you want to send them out to fight, Aeon's powerful cannon gets the nod. Advantage: Cybran, Aeon The actual experimental units are all so different they can hardly be compared. Just play with them a little to see their strengths and weaknesses. ------------- 5.7. UPGRADES ------------- Everyone has a Personal Teleporter on the back, but I have yet to discover a use for it. If you have a replay of someone using teleportation effectively, even with subcommanders, please send it to me. ARMORED COMMAND UNIT UEF has Resource Allocation on an arm instead of the back, has extra Tactical/Strategic Missile Launcher upgrades, and can increase its build speed to 100 or upgrade both shields and regen rate. Cybran can build additional weapons and has Stealth + Cloaking upgrades instead of shields. Aeon has more traditional weapon upgrades, Advanced Resource Allocation and more durable (but smaller) shields. The only useless unique upgrade is the Aeon Enhanced Sensor System. Generally, there are three paths to follow: construction, offense and defense. UEF and Aeon have the edge in construction because UEF's cheap Shoulder Pods give you an early boost and Aeon's Advanced Resource Allocation give you a late-game edge. Cybran and Aeon have the edge in offense because Aeon can shield while attacking and Cybrans' extra weapons are more useful than they look. UEF and Cybran have the edge in defense because of Cybrans' invisibility and UEF's regen ability plus either shields or a one-shot missile. Where Cybran and Aeon can use the right arm to upgrade offense while upgrading their ACU's construction abilities, UEF switches this and uses the right arm for Resource Allocation while upgrading defense or construction abilities. SUPPORT COMMAND UNIT UEF has a variety of weird but bad upgrades, but the combination of heavy shields and Resource Allocation is still very powerful. Cybran has anti-air, a shield-like regen upgrade, and basically all the upgrades you wish its ACU had - it even lacks a teleporter. Aeon is much like Cybrans except it trades anti-air for shields and gun upgrades for a bad sacrifice upgrade. Again, it's difficult to judge - but UEF and Cybran have a variety of good upgrades while Aeon, already more expensive, is stuck with upgrading its construction or trusting in its innate laser firepower. Advantage: UEF, Cybran Only the Cybrans can upgrade their SHIELD GENERATOR, but since you're basically required to upgrade it once or twice to get a decent shield, I've discussed it already in the "Defenses" section. =========== 6. CAMPAIGN =========== Managing Objectives: * Your current objectives will appear in the top left corner of the screen, across from the list of your groups and ACU in the top right corner. * Left-clicking on an objective centers the map on that objective. * Right-clicking on an objective pauses the game and goes to a screen that explains that objective. * Pressing F1 pauses the game and brings up a list of objectives. ----------------- 6.1. UEF CAMPAIGN ----------------- 6.1.1. OPERATION BLACK EARTH ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. BUILD 3 MASS EXTRACTORS Schematics added: T1 Mass Extractor To do this as fast as possible, hold Shift to queue up all 3 Mass Extractors. If they are relatively far apart, queue up a Move command between each one so that your ACU won't have to walk as far; if you just tell him to build, he will walk right up next to the Mass Extractor before building it. 2. BUILD 3 POWER GENERATORS Schematics added: T1 Power Generator Queue up the 3 power generators next to each other, away from the extractors, so that you can place the factory (objective 3) next to them for their adjacency bonus. In general, your first few factories should be accompanied by a row of Power Generators so you don't run out of Energy - an Air Factory can produce interceptors on repeat almost for free using this method. 3. BUILD A LAND FACTORY Schematics added: T1 Land Factory Place the factory next to the Power Generators. Have your ACU continue to build Mass Extractors and Power Generators, and if you're making more than you can spend, build another Land Factory. Normally, while factories are being built, you can queue up orders for them. In this mission, you'll have to wait for the next objective before doing so. 4. BUILD 3 MEDIUM TANKS Schematics added: T1 Engineer, Medium Tank, Wall Section, T1 Point Defense, T1 Radar System As a general tip, don't complete objectives before you have to. In this case, build a few Engineers as well as Medium Tanks. Have the Engineers develop your economy with Mass Extractors and Power Generators, while one Engineer is set on patrol around any surrounding trees or rocks to collect their resources. If you have extra resources, your Engineers can assist your factory with its production, as can your ACU, which builds as fast as 2 Engineers. 5. DESTROY THE ENEMY RADAR Map expands to the south Move your tanks to the Cybran radar tower and they'll automatically start attacking the defending Hunters and the nearby Cybran buildings. If they don't kill the radar, tell them to attack it by right-clicking on it. Keep building Medium Tanks for the next objectives. Now would be a good time to set your tanks into a group. Select them either by double-clicking on one of them, pressing Ctrl+L (for Land units), or selecting one and pressing Ctrl+Z (for all units of that type), and make them a group by pressing Ctrl+1 (or any number you choose). In the future, pressing 1 will select those units without having to track them down. Use this for any groups or single units you might want instant access to. 6. DESTROY THE ENEMY AIR FACTORY TO THE SOUTHWEST Schematics added: Remaining T1 land units Map expands to the west Construct a mix of medium tanks, artillery, Mech Marines, and anti-air tanks. Once you have your preferred mix, press the Repeat button in the lower left corner to keep producing them indefinitely. Continue expanding your economy and building more Land Factories (which are significantly faster than your lowly T1 Engineers) until you have a large mixed force (100 units should be plenty). Move in and attack the base using Ctrl+Alt+click, which keeps the units moving in formation even when they encounter resistance; otherwise, your marines will rush in and get killed instead of providing cover for your tanks and artillery. Have all your other factories assist the first so that they will produce from its build queue. If you need to issue different orders, the factory will build those and then go right back to assisting. 7. DESTROY ALL TOWERS ALONG THE DEFENSIVE LINE Map expands to the south Units received: Heavy Tanks, Mobile Missile Launchers Build a few more Engineers and send them over to the southwestern base you destroyed, so you can grab its mass extraction points. You'll need it to continue building up your forces. Be very careful with your Mobile Missile Launchers, as they can destroy the opposing T1 Point Defenses without being hurt themselves. If you set them on patrol just outside the defenses' range, they'll provide fire support while the rest of your units move in to destroy the towers to the south. 8. DEFEAT THE CYBRAN COMMANDER Schematics added: Air Factory and units (except T1 Transport), Anti-Air Turret Build some Air Factories, surrounding them with Power Generators (because aircraft cost a lot of Energy to build). Have your Engineers (some of which should be idle by now) assist the Air Factory to build a large force of bombers and interceptors. The interceptors should go first to engage the enemy interceptors, clearing the way for your bombers. You'll need a lot of bombers to break through the Cybran air defenses, but they're the best way of reaching the Cybran Commander. Don't charge in directly; instead, do the next objective. 9. CAPTURE ONE TECH 2 POWER GENERATOR Schematics added: Mass Fabricator The Cybran base to the west is lightly defended; your ground forces should be able to handle it. Bring a couple Engineers with you so that you can capture the T2 Power Generators (although only 1 is needed, you'll want all 3). With your newfound income, build Mass Fabricators to even out your Mass and Energy production, then move any available Engineers to the base you just destroyed and build more Land Factories there. Get used to commanding multiple bases so that your units have an easier travel to the front lines. Stop building Mech Marines here, as they are much more useful for engaging enemy armies than entrenched, walled bases like this one. If you have enough fighters in a group, you can also get away with building only a few anti-air vehicles. A mix of tanks and artillery, with air support, works best. Move your forces carefully through the pass past the Power Generators. Once all of them have arrived, move in from the south, doing as much damage to the towers as possible before the Commander moves in to ward you off. When the Commander comes out and starts killing your ground units, order all your attack units, land and air, to target him. If you've built up enough bombers, you should have no trouble finishing him off while he's occupied with your ground forces. 6.1.2. OPERATION SNOW BLIND ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From here, I'll assume you know how the game works and I'll stop reminding you to build Mass Extractors, queue up orders, put factories on repeat, etc. 1. BUILD AN AIR FACTORY Schematics: end of Mission 1 Time limit until objective 3 completed: 24:00 You'll want both Land and Air Factories for this mission. The Air Factory is there for the usual support, as well as transporting units to Lima Foxtrot in the northeast. You don't need transports yet - just concentrate on building land units, making sure to include anti-air units in your queues. Send an Engineer to grab the two Hydrocarbon Power Plant spots to the north - but be sure to lightly defend the second one, lest Aeon patrols destroy it. 2. DEFEAT ALL AEON PATROLS Wait until you have a sizable ground force, then set it to patrol from north to south along the edges of the map. Once the patrols are destroyed in your area, expand your patrols gradually until you've cleared a path for your Air Transport to move through with an engineer. If you're pressed for time, build base defenses and move your ground units north to make a path more quickly. Send fighters on the route you plan your Air Transport to take to make sure the way is safe. 3. REPAIR THE RESEARCH FACILITY AT STATION LIMA FOXTROT Move an engineer across the north edge of the map with your Air Transport to repair the facility. The engineer should build some land and air turrets along the south walls of Lima Foxtrot, while your land forces patrol the southern edge of the map. 4. DEFEAT AEON ASSAULT Schematics added: T2 Land Factory, T2 Air Factory, Gunship, Mobile Flak Gun Build a couple more Air Transports and get some of your land units to Lima Foxtrot, while keeping some on patrol to defeat Aeon assaults on your main base. It also helps to build a Land Factory at Lima Foxtrot with any spare Engineers. The Aeon will send several waves of land and air units at you; prepare for the air units with mobile flak and the ground units with gunships. Combined with the defenses you've built, it should be easy to take them out. 5. GET UNITS TO THE LUTHIEN COLONY Map expands to the south There are light Aeon patrols between you and Luthien in the southwest, but it shouldn't be a problem. You need 20 tanks, 12 anti-air trucks and 14 gunships; you probably already have that many tanks and trucks, so if you lost any gunships, rebuild them and land them at Luthien. 6. DESTROY ALL AEON LIGHT RADAR INSTALLATIONS The easiest way to kill these is simply to have your extra ground forces move in on them, along with bombers and any gunships that aren't at Luthien. 7. EVACUATE LUTHIEN COLONY You have control of 8 civilian trucks from Luthien. Your Air Transport(s) and Gunships are more than enough to get them immediately to Lima Foxtrot; set up a ferry point and have the gunships assist the ferry beacon. Guard with fighters while your ground units move out to cover the southern border. 8. DEFEND STATION LIMA FOXTROT Map expands to the south Schematics added: T2 Heavy Tank and Mobile Missile Launcher This is quite easy: simply have your existing ground army patrol to the south of Lima Foxtrot as well as to the north of the enemy base. You should have switched to T2 units by now, and they should be more than enough to hold off the Aeon while you build up forces. 9. DESTROY THE AEON FACTORIES Instead of a frontal assault (which will destroy all your T1 units without accomplishing anything), move around to the southwest and southeast corners and attack from the back door. There are still defenses, but the shields are light enough for you to move in under them and get through. 10. DEFEAT THE AEON COMMANDER The Aeon Commander will probably move in to attack your forces in the south. Your gunships and bombers should make short work of her (just make sure to queue up move orders so they don't try to fly over the Aeon base). 6.1.3. OPERATION METAL SHARK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DEFEAT FRIGATE FORCE A fleet of six frigates patrols to the south. To defeat them, you'll need a sizable navy, so build up your starting island with plenty of air and sea defense before starting this objective. A mixed force of subs and bombers works best, as they make life tough for engineers building torpedo launchers or enemy frigates. If you've unlocked gunships with objectives 2 and 3, those are excellent. 2. BUILD SONAR INSTALLATION Easiest objective since "Build 3 Mass Extractors". Build it near a Torpedo Launcher so that you can have some advance warning for your defenses. 3. DESTROY ALL ENEMY SUBMARINE GROUPS The only real way to defeat the enemy subs is to have lots of subs of your own. A single Frigate will also give you sonar coverage for the all-important edge in sub battles, since whoever fires first usually wins. If you can trick them into a Torpedo Launcher, your job is easier, but that's risky. 4. DEFEAT THE AEON COUNTERATTACK Map expands to the south Schematics added by this point: Gunship, Torpedo Bomber If you have a decent naval and air force, the counterattack should be no problem - just make sure your fighters cover the approaches to your base. There's a small Aeon island nearby with a Hydrocarbon plant on it; dispatch it with ships (surface your subs to attack ground targets). 5. RECLAIM ARNOLD'S BLACK BOX Schematics added: Resource Allocation System ACU upgrade By now you should have stepped up your production of aircraft so that you have lots of gunships and fighters ready, with bomber / torpedo bomber support for your sea fleet. Try to take naval control early so you can stop building torpedo bombers and concentrate on air units. Make sure you patrol to the east, as enemy attacks generally come from that direction. Expand to the southern islands - T2 point defenses on the shoreline work quite well to ward off Aeon ships. When you're ready to move in on Arnold's island, send your aircraft in first to destroy the torpedo launchers, then bring in your ships to clean up. 6. KILL OR CAPTURE THE AEON PRINCESS Map expands to the east Schematics added: T2 Naval Factory You can't complete this objective no matter how you try. Instead, set your sights on Eris, the Aeon commander. 7. DESTROY THE AEON COMMANDER'S MAIN BASE The Aeon base is large and well-defended. Build up an army of destroyers and subs, then use it to first clear out the small island north of the base, then to destroy the anti-air on the southern tip of the island so your gunships can move in to establish a beachhead. Once you have naval control, stop building ships after you have a few cruisers to pound the shoreline and convert your production to a T2 Land Factory building heavy tanks you can air-drop at the south. Move your tanks north, concentrating fire on the Anti-Air turrets. As usual, when the ACU comes after your tanks, send in the gunships and any bombers you have left over for the kill. 6.1.4. OPERATION VACCINE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DESTROY THE CYBRAN BASE The Cybran base is to the south, and attacks will come only from the south and east - but they attack with T2 aircraft and amphibious Wagner tanks, so make sure to have the southern end of your base fortified with both anti-air and point defenses. Patrolling anti-air units also help greatly to cover your expansion. You'll want all 3 kinds of factories fairly quickly. Use T2 Point Defense on the shore and your naval units to secure the river, then move across with amphibious tanks. Cruisers help soften up the defenses; surface your subs if necessary. Make sure not to make them move through the walls, but go around into the southern base. Once your ships and tanks have defeated the anti-air, support with gunships. Since Mass Extractors are scarce here, build Mass Fabricator farms in the interior of your base; the Commander's Resource Allocation System also helps. 2. CAPTURE 2 OF THE 4 COMMAND CENTERS Map expands to the south (I think) Move your sea forces south along the river to soften up defenses, then move in your amphibious tanks to the very south of the map where the command centers are located. The Engineers should capture them only when you're well-prepared to handle a ferocious air and amphibious assault to the east; you may even want to consider building walls along your coastline (with breaks for the amphibious tanks to get through, of course). Have Engineers build turrets on the eastern island to the south and east; when the map expands, you'll have a beachhead on this island for free. Move your naval forces to the northeast corner of the map to take out the next base's defenses. 3. CAPTURE THE SCIENCE FACILITY Map expands to the east Schematics added: Tactical Missile Defense, T2 Shield Generator, T2 Artillery Set to work immediately on building shields around vital parts of your base, along with shields and tactical missile defense along your eastern border. Set up a couple T2 artillery emplacements to the east and southeast to take out enemy ships if you get kicked off the seas. Send your ships to the southeast science facility as usual, then follow up with amphibious tanks and gunships. After recovering from the battle, move your fighters' patrol route to include the science facility as well. 4. ESCORT THE DOCTOR TO THE QUANTUM GATE Dr. Sweeney needs to be transported to the southern Quantum Gate, but as soon as you try to do it, the Cybrans retaliate with gunships from off the edge of the map. Make sure you've cleared absolutely everything away before you move the Doctor, and send lots of fighters to protect him. It also helps to move Sweeney with a gunship instead of a fragile transport. 5. DEFEAT THE CYBRAN COMMANDER The easiest way to draw the Commander out of his base is to pound it with T2 artillery. Capture the island between your base and his, use air and naval strikes to knock out his own artillery, then construct yours (under shield and anti-air cover) on the eastern shore of the island. Once you've got the doctor safely out, construct more artillery to the east; this will help with the next objectives as well as hopefully make him wander out of the base. The Commander usually escapes to the southeast when his northeast base is in trouble; destroy the northeast base first, then rebuild and air drop T2 land units in its ruins to hunt down the ACU in the southeast. Drop everything you have on his head when you find him, making sure to include your artillery. 6. CONSTRUCT 3 LONG-RANGE RADAR INSTALLATIONS This is fairly easy. Stockpile on gunships and fighters before you finish this objective, and make sure to protect the installations well, as Cybrans will attack from off the map even before the radars are finished. 7. PROTECT THE LONG-RANGE RADAR INSTALLATIONS FOR 1:30 Set your airforce on patrol over the radar and you should have no problem with this objective. Move your ground units around the Quantum Gate to prepare for the next objective. 8. DESTROY FLEEING ENGINEERS The engineers flee from Brackman's base in the southwest directly across the river to the Quantum Gate. Move all remaining amphibious tanks in to stop them, while keeping your gunships and land forces ready for the next mission. 9. DEFEAT THE SPIDERBOT The Spiderbot marches north to your base; concentrate all firepower (except the forces killing the engineers) on the Spiderbot. Your naval units serve as a good last line of defense before it crosses the river. 10. DESTROY BRACKMAN'S BASE Don't bother wiping it out, just hit the shields and then the Science Lab. With the artillery you built earlier, this shouldn't be very difficult. 6.1.5. OPERATION FORGE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DEFEND 90% OF THE CITY 2. PROTECT 2 RESEARCH FACILITIES Immediately build Heavy Shield Generators over the Black Sun research facilities with your T3 Engineers, then set to work pumping out more engineers from your factories. Set Engineers on patrol around the civilian buildings, and others building more T2 point and anti-air defenses. Most of the attacks are by air for the first parts of the mission; by then, you should have amassed an army of T3 Siege Bots and T2 mobile flak guns, with fire support from Mobile Missile Launchers and T2 shield generators. 3. DEPLOY 3 STRATEGIC MISSILE DEFENSES Schematic added: Strategic Missile Defense The enemy launches a nuke early on, but it is automatically shot down. At this point, build Strategic Missile Defenses (make sure to have 5+ engineers on each one) on the indicated spots. The enemy will send more nukes quickly, so assist the defenses while they build their missiles (Auto-Build saves you headaches in this mission). You can let one base die, but try to save all of them, as it leaves you room for error with the civilian buildings. 4. DESTROY ARNOLD'S STRATEGIC MISSILE LAUNCHERS After the second nuke attack, Arnold's nuke launchers are revealed. Move all your forces in a huge mass all the way to the east just above the southeast enemy base. With enough troops, you'll be able to see and destroy any counterattacks before they happen. Get into a formation in the southeast corner and charge in through the back door, going for maximum damage in the shortest amount of time. Afterwards, head to the northeast base for the 2nd launcher. 5. DESTROY THE CYBRANS' LONG-RANGE HEAVY ARTILLERY Make sure all your shields are up for this objective. The artillery is in small bases to the northeast and southwest. Use gunships and bombers to wipe out the artillery, leaving the rest of the base to be dealt with later. 6. ESCORT BLACK SUN COMPONENT TRUCKS TO QUANTUM GATE Schematic added: Strategic Missile Launcher Black Sun trucks appear in a surviving research base randomly. You must escort them to your main base's Quantum Gate, but watch out for heavy air attacks. Have your ground forces patrol the route the trucks take. Move the trucks right after an air assault is foiled. Two groups of trucks will appear. After you move the trucks in safely, your ACU can follow them, or you can have some more fun with your new nuke launchers. 7. DESTROY ALL 5 CYBRAN BASES (OPTIONAL) The bases to the north have no Strategic Missile Defense, so a single nuke will wipe them out. The southwest base has a single nuke defense; send a massive air strike to take it out and then nuke the base. The southern base is well-defended and will take the rest of your troops to destroy. Alternatively, two nuke launchers will overpower the strategic defenses. 6.1.6. OPERATION STONE WALL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. PROTECT BLACK SUN (ongoing) As soon as you start the mission, move your air forces away from the eastern island and under some shields; there's no time limit on the first objective. This objective is ongoing. Your starting base is mostly upgraded to T3, but it needs more defenses, especially air defenses. You'll also need a lot of Engineers to get your economy going and build the requisite defenses. Build 4 Heavy Shield Generators around Black Sun itself, plus anti-air guns within the shields and T2 point defense on the north side. Although you're on an island, build a ground force, as you'll face land attacks from the north later on. Build heavy naval defenses to the east of your Naval Factories - groups of Heavy Torpedo Launchers and anti-air should work. Concentrate on the UEF's air advantage: Heavy Gunships. Strategic Bombers are expensive but work well as naval defense (their firepower is usually wasted on land units). Upgrade both your Commanders' shields and keep them shielded at all times. Build a Quantum Gate and a pack of Support Commanders for later on; they also help construct more quickly. 2. RECOVER THE LAST COMPONENT Wait until you have a superior force of T2 ships, subs, and T3 aircraft before attacking. You might also want to build a second Strategic Missile Defense if your base expands beyond the first one's reach, as the Aeon will retaliate with nukes as soon as you accomplish this objective. Have a transport pick up the last component; while carrying it, the transport is invulnerable. During this or the next objective, you'll want multiple Strategic Missile launchers and naval defenses to the east and west. Either build some T3 subs or a second launcher, or both, and make sure both are fully stocked for the next objectives. 3. DESTROY THE AEON COMMANDER'S ISLAND BASE Before completing this objective, get ready for a large ground assault from the north of the map - make sure your tactical missile launchers are full and your ground forces arrayed to protect Black Sun. Build a nuke launcher south of Black Sun, along with the power and mass needed to run it. The island base has nuke defenses, but it's possible to overwhelm the defenses by firing all your nukes at once, or you could simply find and kill the nuke defense before you move in. To destroy the base, build a couple Battleships and position them out of range of any torpedoes while they shell it. If you've knocked out a Missile Defense, fire several nukes at once at different areas of the island and do as much damage as possible before it is rebuilt. Once you've destroyed all Aeon units, be prepared for a huge northern assault; move all your ships to the west and move your Battleships northwest to provide fire support. 4. DEFEAT THE CYBRAN ATTACK Map expands to the north The biggest threat is their four Spiderbots, as well as strategic missile launches on your northern defenses. If you don't have missile defense (or if you lose it to the army) pull your forces back to defend Black Sun itself and start rebuilding your defenses. The best way to take out this attack is with your Tactical Missiles targeting the Spiderbots, then moving in with T3 gunships, while using your land forces to fight their smaller units. Be prepared for naval attacks on the east and west sides. Don't forget that your T3 subs have tactical missiles as well as strategic ones. Keep an eye on Black Sun's completion; once it reaches 15%, a massive Cybran and Aeon aerial attack comes from all sides, and a small naval force to the east. As soon as these are defeated, an enormous ground force appears at the north corner of the map. Use all your nukes to take this one out; remember to target ahead of the army so they'll walk into it. The Spiderbots will probably survive this nuclear assault; use your T3 bots and SCUs and tactical missiles to kill them. An SCU can upgrade its guns and shields until it can stop even an experimental unit for a few seconds. After the Spiderbots are killed, two Soul Ripper T4 gunships will come from the northern edge of the map. Your only hope of killing them is with your T3 aircraft - fighters and any remaining gunships. Your SCUs can also distract the Soul Rippers from your airforce. T3 air defenses also work well against these guys; have Engineers rebuilding your northern defenses so that they'll be ready when the Soul Rippers arrive. At 70% completion, an Aeon Tempest appears off the west coast. Attack this with all your naval forces and gunships; its Oblivion Cannon can take down the shields you built around Black Sun in two shots. 5. DEFEAT ARNOLD AND HIS ASSAULT GROUP At 80% completion, a large force approaches your island from the northwest. This is the last attack. Put all your troops together at your northern line of defense - remember that Arnold's death explosion can kill Black Sun if he gets too close before he dies. Your defenses in the north should be rebuilt by now. As a last ditch effort, put your ACUs behind Black Sun's shields and give them weapons upgrades. Have all your air forces concentrate on the Czar which presages Arnold while your land forces attack him directly. You should have just enough to kill him. Enjoy your victory! -------------------- 6.2. CYBRAN CAMPAIGN -------------------- 6.2.1. OPERATION LIBERATION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. BUILD 3 MASS EXTRACTORS Schematics added: T1 Mass Extractor To do this as fast as possible, hold Shift to queue up all 3 Mass Extractors. If they are relatively far apart, queue up a Move command between each one so that your ACU won't have to walk as far; if you just tell him to build, he will walk right up next to the Mass Extractor before building it. 2. BUILD 3 POWER GENERATORS Schematics added: T1 Power Generator Queue up the 3 power generators next to each other, away from the extractors, so that you can place the factory (objective 3) next to them for their adjacency bonus. In general, your first few factories should be accompanied by a row of Power Generators so you don't run out of Energy - an Air Factory can produce interceptors on repeat almost for free using this method. 3. BUILD AN AIR FACTORY Schematics added: Air Factory Place the factory next to the Power Generators. Have your ACU continue to build Mass Extractors and Power Generators, and if you're making more than you can spend, build another Air Factory. Normally, while factories are being built, you can queue up orders for them. In this mission, you'll have to wait for the next objective before doing so. 4. BUILD 5 BOMBERS Schematics added: T1 Engineer, Air Scout, Attack Bomber After building your initial Air Scout to patrol outside your base, build Engineers and bombers. Have the Engineers develop your economy with Mass Extractors and Power Generators, while one Engineer is set on patrol around any surrounding trees or rocks to collect their resources. If you have extra resources, your Engineers can assist your factory with its production, as can your ACU, which builds as fast as 2 Engineers. 5. DEFEAT THE UEF PATROLS Set up an attack queue by holding Shift and clicking the enemy units. Your bombers should make short work of the enemy land units; if there are any anti-air vehicles, target them first to avoid losing bombers. If your aircraft are in the air too long, they will run out of fuel (the meter right below their health bar). Allow them to land and they will refuel themselves slowly. In later missions, you can use Air Staging Facilities or some naval units to repair and refuel more quickly. 6. CAPTURE THE UEF RADAR Move one of your Engineers to the radar facility to capture it. Once it's yours, the rest of the small base joins your forces as well. 7. DESTROY THE UEF MASS REFINERIES Map expands to the north Schematics added: Interceptor Add interceptors to your build queue. Find a good mix of bombers and fighters, then press the factory's Repeat button to continue it indefinitely. Have your other Air Factories assist the first to help with its queue. If you give the other factories new build orders (say, if you need more Engineers, or some Air Scouts), they will return to assisting after they're finished with those. Set your interceptors on a patrol route around your base - you'll want 5-10 of them before you send them north to battle the UEF interceptors. With those dead, move in your bombers and destroy the Mass Extractors. 8. DEFEAT THE UEF PATROLS Map expands to the east Schematics added: Land Factory, T1 Point Defense, Anti-Air Turret Build several Land Factories, along with Power Generators next to them so that you don't run out of energy. Have them build a couple Land Scouts for radar coverage, then a continuous mix (put the queue on repeat) of land units. Set the primary factory's default orders to patrol along the east of your base. You can now build up an overwhelming force, protecting your base with turrets, assisting factories with your ACU and extra Engineers, and move in when you feel you're ready to crush all opposition. The enemy will attack only from the air until you move in to defeat the patrols. 9. DEFEAT UEF OUTER DEFENSES You'll need mostly ground units to defeat the two defensive posts in the north and south. The middle defensive post can be destroyed with one fell swoop if you have enough bombers: simply target the easternmost Anti-Air turret and the bombers will destroy all its anti-air defenses on the first pass and the rest on the second pass. Don't let your bombers stray north or south; you'll need them for the next objective. 10. DEFEAT SYMBIONT GUARDS Map expands to the east At this point, you should be close to the unit limit. Try to keep your economy as close to +0 mass as possible - if you have extra, build more factories, and always build Mass Extractors anywhere you can. If you have too little, you can pause some Engineers by pressing Z. The new UEF base has a lot of Interceptors guarding it - bring in your own air force to destroy them while simultaneously bringing in your own ground forces from the south. You should pass right through the enemy base, which surrounds the Symbionts you need to free. Once the interceptors are destroyed, you can bring in your bombers to support the ground forces, especially to take out problematic Point Defenses. 11. DESTROY THE UEF BASE Move northward from the Symbionts with your land forces. If you've eliminated the Anti-Air turrets, you can bring in your bombers to make short work of any remaining buildings. Keep your fighters patrolling outside your base and have them swoop in if any enemy fighters show up. 12. DEFEAT THE AEON COMMANDER Map expands to the south Schematics added: T1 Air Transport Build several transports and have them set up a ferry from your base to the front lines. (See part 1 of this guide for more info on ferrying.) You should build up an enormous land force consisting mostly of Mantis assault bots with support from the other ground units (plus a cloaked scout for radar coverage). Your huge force should just head straight south to the center of the enemy base and attract the enemy Commander. When she comes out, send all your air units to attack her, with the fighters coming in to confuse enemy anti-air. The combination should finish her quickly. 6.2.2. OPERATION ARTIFACT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From here, I'll assume you know how the game works and I'll stop reminding you to build Mass Extractors, queue up orders, put factories on repeat, etc. This mission is actually rather difficult; be sure to build up a large force instead of accomplishing early objectives as fast as possible. 1. CLEAR VILLAGE OF AEON UNITS Build Land Factories first, without neglecting Air Factories (since air assaults come early and often), and get a force of land units up. You can clear out the forces from the first temple relatively quickly, but don't destroy the temple itself before you have a sizable base, because when the temple is destroyed it triggers a counterattack of T1 units. 2. DESTROY TEMPLE TO FIND TECH Manually attack the temple once you're ready with a well-defended base, a thriving economy, and a few Torpedo Launchers in the water before you build a Naval Factory (to avoid attracting enemy Frigates which will tear into your base and land units). Make sure to eliminate any Aeon units in the area before moving on to the next objective. 3. GUARD THE FIRST PIECE OF SERAPHIM TECH This shouldn't be an issue - simply keep your forces around the temple until an Engineer comes to retrieve the Tech. 4. SEARCH SURROUNDING TEMPLES FOR MORE TECH Map expands to the north and south (I think) The Tech is in the southeast temple, but you should destroy the units which defend the other temples first, to prevent surprise attacks. 5. DEFEAT AEON REINFORCEMENTS The Aeon start sending in T2 units to defend their temples now, so be ready with your own ground forces, plus your ACU if absolutely necessary. Keep your units on patrol, but concentrate on the south. Start building naval units, mostly subs, to defend against enemy naval attacks. Try to bait them into running into your Torpedo Launchers. 6. GUARD THE 2ND PIECE OF SERAPHIM TECH The Aeon will ignore the Tech if they recapture the area, so this simply equates to "Secure the area". 7. DESTROY SOUTHERN AEON NAVAL BASE Map expands to the south and east Send your naval units south, destroying naval threats first and then moving to destroy the enemy frigates and factories. The air defense is light once you've destroyed the Attack Boats, so bring in your bombers. Move your naval units along the river after you're done and build more Frigates than subs. 8. DESTROY EASTERN AEON BASE AND RECOVER ITS TECH Send your naval units up the river at the same time as you move in with an enormous T2 ground force. With your extra resources, build T2 defenses along the new edges of your base; try to lure enemy ground forces back to them if you need help. 9. GUARD THE 3RD PIECE OF SERAPHIM TECH While your army accomplishes this (which your naval force should be doing well) have some Engineers capture the mass points of the southern and eastern bases. Maintain air superiority at all times over your territory, as the enemy will attack with both bombers and air transports full of ground units. 10. DEFEAT MACH Map expands to the east Build several Air Transports and use them to transport your ground forces to the south of the map (don't fly over Mach's base in the southeast), just east of the southern Aeon base you destroyed. A mixed force of units, with shields and Mantises for protection, works best. Move north and destroy the Power Generators to cut his production, then sweep through the defensive turrets. Once you've cut off his anti-air ability, bring in bombers to the southeast corner of the map so that you can destroy Mach when he appears without flying over anti-air in the northeast base. 11. DEFEAT THE AEON COMMANDER The Aeon Commander usually comes out very quickly once you kill Mach. Your ground forces can surround and destroy her, especially if you're ferrying them to Mach's base now. Meanwhile: 12. MOVE YOUR COMMANDER TO THE GATE Walk it into the center of the Quantum Gate to finish the mission. 6.2.3. OPERATION DEFRAG ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DEFEND YORK18 AND THE QUANTUM GATE You have very few resources at the start of this mission, so use your starting units wisely. Have your Bombers destroy the tanks to the west of York18, but don't let them fly over the west or northwest bases. Once York is safe, pull your bombers back to your base. You will be attacked by land and air early. Build some Anti-Air turrets on the western shore near the Quantum Gate, and send an Engineer over to York's position to defend him with turrets. Build an Air Factory first to help with air defense and replenish your bomber supply. 2. DEFEAT THE NORTHEASTERN BASE Defeat this base first to gain control of the east side of the river. You can use T2 land forces and Medusas (T1 light artillery) to take out this base, and then start building Wagner amphibious tanks. You can capture the Land Factory to save some time once you've finished this. Once the east of the river is under your control, build Anti-Air turrets along the shoreline and some more defenses for your new northern base. At this point, you should have a second Air Factory and a Naval Factory, and your Engineers should be building Power Generator and Mass Fabricator farms to the east. Use your T2 engineers (from the land factory building Wagners) to upgrade York's defenses to T2. These guns can reach the edges of the other two bases. You can also bombard them with T2 point defense from across the river or your own frigates. 3. DEFEAT THE WESTERN BASE Use air transports to airlift your T2 land units and Medusas south of the western base. Slowly move them closer as your artillery softens them up. Your Wagners and bombers can move in for the kill once the artillery starts working. 4. DEFEAT THE NORTHWESTERN BASE Build T2 point defense in the ruins of the western base so that it can reach the northwestern base. Once it has finished off the edges, move in your troops that took the western base. 5. DEFEAT 2 UEF ARTILLERY POSITIONS Map expands to the east Dr. Brackman's bunker starts under fire from the UEF artillery position to his northwest. Send your land forces back (Wagners help here, as they don't have to wait for transports) to take it out quickly, with bombers to kill the artillery itself once the land forces kill the anti-air turrets. The second position is across the river and you'll need more Wagners and Bombers to kill it, but the Cruiser stands in your way. 6. DEFEAT THE UEF CRUISER The Cruiser starts just north of Brackman's bunker. Move your tanks and artillery to the shoreline and they should be able to hit it, with your remaining bombers destroying it quickly. Afterwards, rebuild for a little while, then attack the second artillery position with mixed forces. 7. ESCORT BRACKMAN'S CONVOY The convoy appears slowly, but let the civilians accumulate under Brackman's shield until you're sure the way is safe. Enemy air patrols appear from the north, but your fighters should make short work of them if you patrol along the route the convoy will take. The enemy will also try to make transport drops on you, so have your land units guard Brackman's base until the convoy arrives and travel with it to the Gate. Move all trucks directly into the Gate for the next objective. 8. DESTROY THE UEF COMMANDER Map expands to the north Start building T2 air units here; extend your air and ground patrols to cover your whole main island. Move your naval units to the northern river to prevent enemy naval units from sneaking along the eastern and western rivers. Build T2 defenses along the northern shore to prevent amphibious assaults while your own Wagners and artillery (transport-dropped after the Wagners clear a small landing zone) destroy the base. Once the outer defenses are destroyed by your Medusas and Vipers, move the Wagners in to find the ACU, and use air attacks to finish him off when he appears. Unlike most missions, you'll do just fine by cornering the ACU instead of baiting him out of his base. 6.2.4. OPERATION MAINFRAME TANGO ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DEFEAT THE AEON COMMANDER There's no time limit for the first task, but you'll be continually assaulted, so build up defenses on your western side. The Aeon Commander is to the southwest. Build up a large navy and Wagner force (they have torpedoes so they won't be defenseless while crossing the bay), with air transports to bring in Vipers and Rhinos for the heavy base assaults. Your walking destroyers are key here, as they can do anything you need. Scout out the southwest base until you find a good place to air drop your forces. Before moving in, build up a decent force and send in your Destroyers so they emerge from the water, causing the enemy defenses to target them instead of your land units. When the Aeon Commander shows up, attack with everything, including bombers and gunships; she'll teleport away, but you'll need forces there anyway for objective #2. 2. RECAPTURE THE NETWORK NODE The node is in the middle of the base you're attacking. Capture it with an Engineer once you've leveled the base. Have your naval forces (not just your Destroyers) destroy the naval side of the Aeon base there. 3. SAVE THE NETWORK NODE AND CIVILIAN BUILDINGS Map expands to the west The civilian village already has shields, but you'll want to airlift your land units there for defenses while you erect a defensive position. Build a Land Factory there so you can have mobile defenses, and build some anti-air as well. 4. DEFEND THE NODE AGAINST AEON ATTACKS The node will come under all kinds of attack - your Land Factory making T2 flak and heavy tanks comes in handy as all-purpose defense. Move your naval forces to the north of the village to find the naval attack before it happens and destroy it. 5. CAPTURE THE NORTHEAST NODE Map expands to the north Your original base is now vulnerable to northern attacks, so build some defense there. You can either move in with a large force to overwhelm their mobile shields, or send a mobile stealth generator and an engineer with your air transport (after scouting out their flight paths) to capture it. 6. CAPTURE THE NORTHWEST NODE This is relatively easy: simply move your naval forces to the coast and they will shell the base into oblivion. Before capturing the node, move your entire army just outside the main Aeon base in a huge formation. You have a time limit for the next objective, so capture only when ready. 7. DEFEAT THE AEON COMMANDER 30 seconds after completing objectives 5 and 6, an EMP bomb goes off in the middle of the Aeon base. This gives you time to raid the base with everything, find the Commmander, and kill her with gunships and bombers before their air defenses reactivate. 6.2.5. OPERATION UNLOCK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. DESTROY 6 UEF POWER GENERATORS To the south there is a large UEF base; build a wall between the two of you once you've taken control of 10 or 11 mass deposits. Don't provoke the UEF until you're ready to fight, and don't build a Naval Factory until your land forces are secure and teched up to T2, as the UEF navy is big and aggressive. Build your Mass Fabricator farms to the northeast of the map, far from enemy air patrols. Along your south wall, build a complete T2 defense with shields and artillery and a couple patrolling Engineers. Once you're ready to upgrade to T3, build some Naval Factories and assist them while you produce a land force designed to protect your T3 mobile artillery. Let the enemy forces attack you and waste their mobile units before you attack. Sneak your forces along the eastern edge of the map, behind cover of the mountains, so they can destroy the Power Generators and drop their shields. Remember to move at Heavy Artillery Speed with formations or Ctrl-Alt-click. 2. DESTROY 3 OMNI-SENSORS 3. DESTROY THE UEF NAVAL BASE Map expands to the west Destroy the first Omni post using the same sneaky Artillery method, then have your Artillery slowly control more territory. As you gain control, extend air patrol routes to cover your safe areas so that enemy patrols don't sneak up. Use naval units to take out the western shoreline and destroy the naval base. Your Cruisers and Destroyers can also help take out the defenses on the beach. Destroying the naval base first makes targetting the Omni Sensor on the west mountain much easier. As your artillery and support units die, replace them by air dropping more units in. The Naval Base is at the south end of the river. Toggle the land/air switch on your cruisers to "land" and move in with your naval forces (but not air forces because the anti-air is all shielded), while your artillery breaks down the shields. Target Engineers first, as they will attempt to repair the defenses. Alternatively, you can air drop Engineers by the base and a T2 artillery or Tactical Missile Launcher will destroy it easily, defended by your land units. The southwest Omni Sensor's base is in range of all your units, so have all your forces pound it. The west Omni Sensor is atop a mountain, making it well-defended. Destroyers are slow, but they're your best bet here; drop your artillery squad behind them and protect them with your aircraft. 4. REACH HEX5 WITH YOUR COMMANDER Transport your ACU to the target area and keep your fighters back at your main base, as the skies will become very unfriendly after this objective. After you finish it, quickly transport your ACU back to the shields in your main base. 5. DEFEAT UEF GUNSHIP ASSAULT This is not a problem if you had enough air defenses from the early objectives and enough fighters to repel the gunships. 6. INFECT UEF AIR STAGING FACILITY Map expands to the south This base is well defended, so you'll need to use your artillery squad. Try to clear away units from one side of the base while dropping units to the other sides in a suicide attack, then moving Engineers in through the hole to capture one of the facilities. You don't need to wipe out the whole base first. 7. DEFEAT UEF COMMANDER Move all your forces to the southwest corner - the naval units to the river to the east of the base, with the air units covering the sea but not straying too far into the base's Anti-Air coverage. Once you've killed the outer ring of turrets, target the shields, and move your Destroyers up onto the shore to bait the ACU out of hiding. If he retreats before he dies, return to shelling his base until he has nowhere left to run. Once you have a clear shot, send in your air forces and Destroyers to finish the job. 6.2.6. OPERATION FREEDOM ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 0. BUILD YOUR BASE Your mission is not to waste time with the usual teching up here, but to have enough economy to produce lots of experimental units, all the way up to a Scathis to attack safely from behind your base defenses. You have 12 minutes to build up your base before the Czar arrives, so work quickly. Build mixed land forces (T3 siege bots, artillery, T2 anti-air, and some T2 mobile shield generators) and send them to the south as cover for the wall of defenses you're building. Build lots of T1 and T3 fighters and bombers in your Air Factories to prepare for the Czar invasion. You'll need a big mixed naval fleet (except carriers, because you already have Air Staging Facilities), and lots of T3 Engineers to fund your war machine, especially since you'll want to upgrade the shields to your southern line and put in T3 Heavy Artillery Installations to stop the experimentals that will be coming north at you. You'll also want T3 air defense along the western shore and more T2 Torpedo Launchers in an outer ring beyond the ones you already have, and later on you'll need T2 point defense on both sides of your base to help repel attacks. The key to stopping enemy experimentals from the land is your Heavy Artillery, and the key to killing enemy experimentals from the sea is your Soul Ripper experimental gunship. This is your biggest construction project, as you'll need them to take down the Czar before it obliterates the Black Sun control center. Meanwhile, your ACU and Jericho can be assisting the defensive wall - you'll want several layers of physical walls to prevent ground units from reaching you before their experimentals can crush the walls, as well as the usual defenses. 1. DESTROY THE CZAR Map expands to the south and west (I think) Have all your air units - Soul Rippers, air superiority fighters, even your gunships - help take down the Czar's hitpoints before it reaches the UEF base. The UEF will help you somewhat, but they can't do it alone, and you need it to die before it reaches the control center (south of your base). After you've built a few Soul Rippers, queue up some Monkeylords and a Scathis; if you built your wall right, the Scathis' range should include the Control Center base while it's still inside your defensive perimeter. Problem solved. 2. BUILD A QUANTUM GATE Move your Soul Rippers back to your base, roaming west to spot the Colossus that heads east towards you. The UEF will also attack you, and they'll help to kill the Colossus if you need it. The Colossus should be the focus of your attention with gunships, Soul Rippers and T3 bombers, as well as your entire naval fleet (since it can't use its gravity guns while submerged). If it reaches your base, the western defenses should kill it before it does too much damage. The UEF forces can wait until it's destroyed; your walls should hold them long enough for your defenses and ground troops to mount a defense. Build a Quantum Gate here and step into it with your ACU, which should be safely hiding behind shields at this point. You can now start mass-producing SCUs with the Resource Collection upgrade if you run out of space for T3 power and fabricator farms. The UEF will attack with mobile heavy artillery that can take out your defenses; for this, move in a Soul Ripper to patrol south of the walls to spot them while your own artillery takes care of them. Don't let the UEF build Point Defenses of their own! 3. CAPTURE BLACK SUN CONTROL CENTER This is not a timed objective. After you repulse the UEF and Aeon invasion, take some time to rebuild your forces, then move up your remaining experimental units to the control center. Your Scathis should have already taken out most of this base; the UEF may still defend it with a Fatboy, which is why you brought the spiderbots along. Walk or transport your ACU to Black Sun and make sure his shields are upgraded and that Support Commanders assist him in case of danger. As soon as your ACU approaches the control center, a T3 land force appears right next to it from the south; your experimentals should be able to hold them off, but if not, prepare ahead of time with Shield Generators and defenses built before your ACU arrives. 4. CAPTURE BLACK SUN Map expands to the south Speed is key here; sweep in with your experimentals and move your Scathis forward behind them. The Scathis should destroy high-priority targets like the two Strategic Missile Launchers (one in the middle of the base, one to the west). Fortunately, their first shot is at the Aeon island; make sure to destroy them before they can fire shot #2 at your ACU. After the launchers die, move your experimentals in to kill the UEF Commander. Her explosion will do most of the work for you, and she is hard-pressed to survive a Soul Ripper assault if your Monkeylords have been properly keeping enemy units busy. After the base is destroyed, have your Engineers capture Black Sun and fire it. Enjoy your victory! ------------------ 6.3. AEON CAMPAIGN ------------------ 6.3.1. OPERATION JOUST ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. BUILD 3 MASS EXTRACTORS Schematics added: T1 Mass Extractor To do this as fast as possible, hold Shift to queue up all 3 Mass Extractors. If they are relatively far apart, queue up a Move command between each one so that your ACU won't have to walk as far; if you just tell him to build, he will walk right up next to the Mass Extractor before building it. 2. BUILD 3 POWER GENERATORS Schematics added: T1 Power Generator Don't worry about where to place the Power Generators, as long as they're not next to the Mass Extractors - you won't be building Air or Land Factories for a while. 3. BUILD A NAVAL FACTORY Schematics added: Naval Factory Build the factory just off the coast from your island. Queue up the remaining Mass Extractors with your ACU. 4. BUILD 3 ATTACK BOATS Build several Engineers and a sizable contingent of Attack Boats (3 will most definitely not be enough for the rest of the mission). The Engineers should build another Naval Factory, then continue building up your economy and assisting your factories. 5. DESTROY 7 UEF AIR PATROLS Put your Attack Boats in a group by selecting them (with double-click, Ctrl+Z, or Ctrl+S) and Ctrl+1 (or another number). In the future, your sea fleet can now be accessed just by pressing 1. Put them on patrol around the rest of the visible area of the map. They should encounter UEF aircraft and kill them without your supervision. 6. BUILD 3 ATTACK SUBMARINES Schematics added: Attack Submarine Build several of these. They're more expensive than your Attack Boats, but they're the best unit you have at winning sea battles. If your subs surface for some reason, select them and press D to make them dive back down; unlike UEF and Cybran subs, Aeon subs don't have deck guns so they should always stay underwater. 7. DESTROY 4 UEF BLOCKADES Schematics added: Torpedo Launcher Wait until you have more than 3 subs before you go after the UEF subs. The more you have, the fewer you will lose when your hunting pack goes after them. Have your Engineers build some Torpedo Launchers to protect your factories while your troops are on the offense. It takes ships much longer to return to defend your base than ground or air units, so build more defenses than you would if you were fighting on land. 8. DESTROY ALL 3 UEF POWER GENERATORS AND FACTORIES Map expands to the east Schematics added: Frigate, Anti-Air Turret, T1 Point Defense Build up a big mixed force of all your sea units, adding them to a group for easy access. Move them all to the east, targeting subs and Torpedo Launchers first, then move around the island so your frigates can lay waste to the buildings on the island itself. Your Attack Boats should make short work of any air units, as well as distracting enemy Torpedo Launchers from your expensive subs. Protect your base with Anti-Air turrets, preferably along the coastline so enemy ships will have to get through your Torpedo Launchers before they can attack your air defense. Once the base has been destroyed, move your ACU over to construct a new base on the ruins. If you're feeling particularly heroic, move your sea fleet away before destroying the last factory and have your ACU capture it instead, granting you access to UEF units. 9. DESTROY NORTHWEST AIR BASE Map expands to the north Schematics added: T1 Air Factory, Air Scout, Interceptor, Attack Bomber The last objectives all appear at once, but the northwest base is much easier to tackle first, and it'll relieve some of the pressure the enemy bombers are putting on you. You'll want primarily your air units (assisted by your extra Engineers) to destroy this base, paying particular attention to anti-air first and then destroying Torpedo Launchers and factories at your leisure. 10. DESTROY EASTERN NAVAL BASE While your airforce takes out the northwest base, your sea fleet can move in and destroy the eastern base. Use the same tactics as last time, making sure to destroy the biggest threats (subs and torpedo launchers) and then letting your Frigates destroy its land units. When UEF air units from the north retaliate, you'll probably have lost a lot of Attack Boats to the fighting, so move in your fighters to protect your fleet. 11. DEFEAT UEF JUNIOR COMMANDER On the next island to the north is a UEF Commander. Build up your forces from the previous battles, making sure to keep your factories pumping units, and again send your ACU to build Mass Extractors and another factory or two on the island you just conquered. Keep your air units away from this base, as its T2 flak turrets will obliterate them; instead, use them to protect yourself while your frigates and subs move in to attack the base. The ACU will come out to play very quickly, as your subs should make short work of any naval defenses, and then attack him with everything you've got. Naval units have much more firepower than land units, so the ACU should go down very quickly. 12. DESTROY ANTI-AIR INSTALLATIONS The only remaining task is to make more Frigates and have them destroy all the Anti-Air emplacements on the island. This is to clear the way for the Czar that approaches from the south, which you'll shortly get to see in action. 13. ASSIST THE CZAR This is very easy: simply tell all your units to assist the Czar. By now you should have enough forces to just sit back and watch it destroy the UEF. 6.3.2. OPERATION MACHINE PURGE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From here, I'll assume you know how the game works and I'll stop reminding you to build Mass Extractors, queue up orders, put factories on repeat, etc. 1. CLEANSE 80% OF NEW CATALON Before moving north to destroy the Cybrans, build up a decent-sized force, with a Naval Factory and multiple Air and Land Factories. Concentrate on Cybrans and destroy civilian facilities at your leisure. 2. REPEL CYBRAN COUNTERATTACK At 15% of New Catalon destroyed, the Cybrans will launch an assault. Make sure you have plenty of air protection and you should be fine. 3. DESTROY CYBRAN BASE Map expands to the north and east Plenty of naval units are in order for this one. Destroy the naval outpost to the east before moving to the Cybran base in the northeast. You'll need to do lots of island hopping, so establish naval and air superiority before moving in Auroras, which are amphibious and can swarm through enemy weak points. If you want to use T2 land forces later, you'll need Air Transports to ferry. Alternatively, upgrade your Commander for combat (Personal Shield, Heat Sinks, and Crysalis Beam) and use your naval units as cover to let him cross the river. Once he's on land, he can destroy the base and then the secret base with only anti-air and torpedo bomber support to make sure he doesn't get shot down by bombers or destroyers. 4. DESTROY CYBRAN SECRET BASE Map expands to the east The Cybran naval units to the east are lacking in air defense, so a combined assault with naval forces and bombers works well. Clear out the anti-air defenses in the south end of the base, then load up transports with land units. Drop them in the south and move north while using your naval units to keep the edges of the sea free. 5. PROTECT 80% OF HUMAN SETTLEMENT Drop your troops (or just send the Auroras over first to make a beachhead) on the southern tip of the northeast island. Move north through the civilian structures and destroy Cybran forces there. 6. SURVIVE THE CYBRAN ASSAULT Map expands to the north Schematics added: T2 Air Factory, T2 defenses As soon as you destroy the Cybran base, the Cybrans counterattack from the north. Use your new T2 engineers to protect the northern edge of your base with T2 air defenses and you should be fine. If they manage to air drop units in your base, use your Auroras and bombers to take them out. 7. DEFEAT CYBRAN COMMANDER The Commander is recalcitrant, and he's in the northwest. Move your naval forces out to attack the island, and when he comes out to fight you, pound him with bombers and Auroras. Most likely he'll try to escape in the water, which is the easiest way to kill him: use your air force to take out torpedo launchers, your land force to drive the Commander underwater, and your sub fleet to kill him very quickly. 8. DESTROY WESTERN CYBRAN BASE This island is too big for the Commander's explosion to destroy it. Use your remaining troops to mop up the base, or if the Commander was killed in the water, turn your attention to the eastern base first. 9. DESTROY OR CAPTURE 2 CYBRAN ARTILLERY POSITIONS (optional) Air drop your troops on the western shore of this island and move east until you get to the river separating the main Cybran base from the northern island. Concentrate your production on T2 aircraft, frigates, and Auroras. Send in a few Engineers to capture the artillery on this northern island; it will then fire on the eastern base to soften it up for you. If you have a fighting Commander, he can capture these on his own, and then construct some defenses for them while holding off enemy frigates himself. 10. DESTROY EASTERN CYBRAN BASE Move in all your forces for a combined assault. Fairly straightforward. Objective 9 helps greatly here. 6.3.3. OPERATION HIGH TIDE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. SURVIVE UEF ASSAULT Immediately construct a force of T2 Engineers to build air defense, mostly to the west and north, and T1 point defense scattered throughout the base to stop enemy transport drops. Have more construct T2 torpedo launchers to the west, south and north to defend against naval attacks. The ACU and the rest of your engineers should grab the mass deposits and start building up your economy in preparation to build up your own forces - Auroras and mobile anti-air. The attacks come in this order: Fighters and bombers (have early anti-air) Transports (have land units patrolling) Naval assault (have ships and torpedo bombers ready) Transports again It's fairly easy to hit the unit limit before this objective is completed. Make sure to space out your T2 power generators, as a single transport drop can kill all of them if they're chained together. 2. DESTROY UEF NAVAL BASE Map expands in all directions Schematics added: Gunship, Destroyer Build your new gunships and destroyers to supplement your T1 air and sea forces. Switch land unit production to Auroras and keep your mobile units on patrol through your island to stop enemy transport drops. The naval base is in the southeast. The UEF Commander is here, but he will teleport away when in danger. Use your Auroras to take out the anti-air and torpedo launchers along the fringes, with sea units protecting the Auroras from enemy naval forces. Move all your forces down to take out the Naval Factory and the ships defending it, then grab the island for yourself. Torpedo bombers really help here, as they can get rid of the many enemy subs and T2 torpedo launchers at no cost to themselves. 3. DESTROY UEF AIR BASE The air base is in the southwest corner of the map. If you've already killed the naval base, this is a snap: your destroyers and frigates can take care of most of it from offshore while your fighters patrol overhead. Your Auroras can move in to get whatever the destroyers have trouble with. 4. DESTROY UEF LAND BASE The land base is to the north. Move in your Auroras first to take out Torpedo Launchers before bringing in your naval units to surround the island. Your Destroyers can sail in and support your Auroras while your gunships take out important targets. The Commander reappears here, but teleports out once again when he's in danger. 5. DEFEAT UEF COMMANDER Map expands to the west Schematic added: Cruiser Set your naval and air units on patrol between your bases, and have Engineers build torpedo launchers and anti-air along this line. Transport drops restart here, and you don't want them touching your base. Use your Destroyers' long range guns to attack the far edge of UEF defenses while you build up a huge army of Auroras or mixed air forces. Move them in under sea cover, and when the UEF Commander appears, attack him. He's shielded, so he takes a lot of punishment, but when he's "killed" the mission ends immediately. For this objective, I switched all my engineers and ACU to pumping out T2 air and sea forces, eventually overwhelming Arnold with 50 gunships. 6.3.4. OPERATION ENTITY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. PACIFY NEXUS Nexus appears to be lightly defended with only some T1 defenses and a Tactical Missile Launcher, but the mission is more difficult than it appears. There are actually T2 artillery lying in wait for you on the northern tip of the cape, preventing you from building a Naval Factory. Your starting area is low on resources, so build up defenses to the east and west while you build a T1 fabricator farm in the south. There's no time limit, so you can tech up all your extractors and factories and build up enough of a bomber force to kill the Tactical Missile Launcher as soon as your ground forces are ready to move in. Your first attacks are from the air, so make sure to pump out some mobile T1 anti-air at the start of the mission - they'll try both bomber strikes and transport drops. Anti-air should go especially on the east and west, but also put some turrets along the north edge of your base. Once you get to tech 2, build T2 defenses and shields along these walls. First, take over the Cybran buildings to the west of the map (next to the naval base) to grab some more mass deposits, then place anti-air turrets there and bring your land forces back to help take out Nexus to the east. The easiest way to get rid of the artillery emplacements is to build a Tactical Missile Launcher that just reaches their range. If you don't betray your position, you can get off your first missile before the artillery retaliates - tactical missiles and T2 artillery have the same range. The next tac missile can destroy the Cybrans' eastern defenses, while your ground and air units move in to mop up their own Tactical Missile Launcher and the other resistance. 2. DESTROY THE CYBRAN NAVAL BASE Once you have control of the southeastern coast, you can build a Naval Factory and pump out a bunch of ships with your extra Engineers; send them in along with gunships and Auroras to take out the naval base. 3. CAPTURE THE NODE The same force you used to kill the naval base can help take down the northern defenses around the Node, while your gunships can take out the artillery installations. You can even air drop T2 land forces protected by mobile shields at the edge of the shoreline while the artillery is busy. Once you capture the Node, the map expands, so be ready. 4. CAPTURE AND DEFEND ALL 3 NODES Map expands to the east and north The first Node is the one you just captured. The second is in the northwest, the third in the southeast. They must remain safe until the end of the mission. Send ground troops in to capture the southeast node and use your naval and air forces to clear a place for you to air drop more T2 land forces to capture the northwest node. Make sure to bring in T2 engineers to capture the nodes, as you will need shields and T2 defenses around them to keep them safe. You can lose one node and still complete the mission, but it's best not to take chances. 5. CAPTURE THE MAINFRAME The mainframe is all the way to the north, on the center island. The island doesn't have too many Torpedo Launchers, so a T2 naval force supported by Gunships and Attack Boats can take out the defenses on the southern shore (make sure to kill enemy artillery quickly) so your transports can set up a ferry point for T2 land forces to move in. Once you've cleared out all Cybrans, send over your T2 Engineers to capture it and start building defenses. 6. DEFEND THE MAINFRAME (15 minute time limit) You must defend the Nodes and mainframe for 15 minutes of increasing Cybran attacks. Build lots of gunships, as they can respond to any attack, and T2 anti-air to prevent transport drops. Have your torpedo bombers patrol to the eastern lake to prevent Destroyer attacks on the mainframe and east node. The Cybrans will also attack your main base in an attempt to kill your ACU; make sure he's hiding under a shield with lots of T2 anti-air, and make sure your power generators are well protected. 6.3.5. OPERATION SHINING STAR ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. STOP ARIEL'S ATTACK Air attacks come before land attacks, so prioritize T3 Engineers and T2 mobile flak guns before other units. Upgrade your Land Factories one at a time so you don't cut off your production. Order your troops to patrol around your base as well as the two civilian colonies to the south. Build up a force of T3 aircraft and gunships, advanced defenses (T3 shields and anti-air with T2 point defense) in your base and the colonies, and T2 transports ready to deploy ground troops wherever they're needed. You'll be attacked by artillery eventually, so you'll need to be well-shielded. When objective 3 is complete, this one is also completed. 2. PROTECT COLONIES This objective is ongoing, and most of it was covered above. You should be good against the enemy bomber and transport drops if you have fighters patrolling and shields up with T3 air defense. At least 50% of the civilian buildings must survive or you will fail the mission. 3. DEPLOY STRATEGIC MISSILE DEFENSE Once your engineers have upgraded your economy with T3 power generators and fabricators, send packs of engineers to each colony and build a Strategic Missile Defense. Once they are built, have them Auto Build missiles and tell your engineers to assist them. Your main base doesn't need strategic defense. You'll know the missiles are coming when land units are dropped first to the east and then to the west. After the missiles are deflected, another ground and air force moves in to attack both colonies at once - pull your air force back to stop it before they do too much damage. 4. DESTROY UEF ARTILLERY POSITIONS Map expands to the south and west Make sure that your bases are heavily shielded. They'll immediately start attacking you. The northern artillery post can be stormed by air and land units although it is heavily guarded with T3 bots and a heavy shield - target the bots first, then get under the shield to destroy it. While you're rebuilding your army from this assault, send engineers over to the base of the raised plateaus containing the other 2 artillery positions - a tactical missile launcher there can attack without retaliation, although it'll take several shots to get through the shield and destroy the artillery. 5. DESTROY UEF DEFENSIVE ARTILLERY POSITIONS Fly over Blake's base to the west to reveal this objective. There are 10 artillery positions to take out. Use T3 bombers (with plenty of other air units to serve as their personal shields) to take out the ones to the north, while you air drop a force of T3 mobile artillery protected by mobile shields and your strongest ground units to the south of the map, while you work your way up the riverbank destroying one at a time. 6. DEFEAT CAPTAIN BLAKE Once you have an army to the southern section of Blake's base, bring in some engineers and construct a shielded outpost as close to his base as you can. Put some T2 artillery and radar under the shields and you can target his base with impunity while your ground units protect against retaliation. The best but most time-consuming way to kill Blake is by clearing out the line of anti-air to the north of his base, then dropping troops on both sides and hitting him from all angles while your gunships finish him off. If this is unfeasible, you can wait until the artillery has softened his base up and move in with a huge land force. 7. DEFEAT THE COLOSSUS Map expands to the south Schematic added: Strategic Missile Launcher Once you kill Blake, build a new base on Blake's old one, with upgraded factories, T3 power generators, and plenty of defenses. This is an ideal place to build a Strategic Missile Launcher for the next objective. Move all your land forces to the gully where the southern UEF Artillery Positions were located. The Colossus will come from the southwest to northeast, across the river, and through the gully. Throw all your forces at him, especially air forces, as the Colossus has no air defense and is slow enough for a T3 bomb to hit him cleanly. 8. DEFEAT ARIEL Ariel is on a plateau in the southwest. You can't siege her with artillery or Tactical Missile Launchers, as her own tactical missiles can reach the opposite shore if you try. Fortunately, she has no Strategic Missile Defense, so just a couple nukes to her base will finish her without a costly assault. 6.3.6. OPERATION BEGINNINGS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. CAPTURE BLACK SUN CONTROL CENTER Immediately build air defenses around your island and your T2 torpedo launchers - a mix of T2 and T3 works best so that you can get coverage quickly but upgrade eventually. Most initial attacks are from the southeast, so build up your naval forces there and get shields over your base before moving in to capture the control center. Although transport drops are rare and easily countered, you'll want siege bots and their support units so you can make your own transport drops to take the Control Center. Air attacks will come from the north, so make sure you have T3 air defense there and your T3 generator/fabricator farms are well shielded. When you're sure that nothing can touch your base (make sure to have an Air Staging Facility along your fighters' patrol route to keep them fueled), upgrade your ACU with Advanced Resource Allocation for another resource boost and build Strategic Missile defenses and launchers. Nuke the middle of the island north of the Control Center to take out inner defenses while your sea fleet destroys the defenses along the shoreline. Once you've cleared a route for your transports, move a land force in. If you have trouble taking down the Heavy Shields and siege bots around the Control Center, nuke to the edges of the base so that it doesn't kill the Control Center but takes out the siege bots. Move your own land forces in to secure the area. This next part is pretty hard, so save the game before capturing the Control Center. The enemy attacks from the north and south with increasing ferocity, but it's important to have heavy defenses in place. Put your naval units on patrol to cover the air route of your transports, and use air units to take out enemy counterattacks before they hit you. Make sure you don't hit the unit limit before you get a couple T3 shields up around the Control Center, with T3 air defense inside. Move all your land forces here to protect it and at least 20 T3 Engineers for what comes next. 2. DEFEND BLACK SUN CONTROL CENTER Map expands to the north The Cybran base is revealed, and they have lots of spiderbots and siege bots. Fortunately, you have nukes, and your nuke launcher should aim ahead of enemy troops so that it lands where the army is. You can take out most of the assault force this way. For the rest, immediately after the map expands, have all your Engineers start work on a Colossus, which eats spiderbots for lunch - as long as you can get it finished in time. 3. DEFEAT THE CYBRAN COMMANDER Meanwhile, your naval fleet should move to the shoreline of the Cybran base. If the Cybrans are not destroyed quickly, they'll start building Soul Rippers, which are a big problem for you. If you have two nuke launchers at this point, you can overwhelm their single Strategic Missile Defense with nukes; you can also use your airforce to take out their defense and nuke a couple times, or simply pump out increasing numbers of ships and they'll usually take out the Cybran commander on their own. Make sure to fly over after he's destroyed to confirm the base is killed - you don't need any sneak attacks when you're busy with Marxon. 4. DESTROY MARXON Map expands to the south Black Sun is on the southern coast of the island. As soon as the map expands, a huge naval fleet moves from the south towards your base. Move your naval and air units to intercept ASAP. Artillery starts firing on the Control Center, so build more shields while you construct several Colossi and a Czar or two. Once you have your experimental force ready, send them south while your naval fleet takes out Marxon's navy and his Naval Factories. Marxon is also building Colossi, but your superior numbers and Czar should work well against those. If you're lucky enough to see Marxon before your Colossi go down to his vast array of defenses, target him for a quick kill. Otherwise, target his Strategic Missile Defenses, one on the west and one on the east. Once they're gone, you can nuke his base. Congratulations on your victory! ========== 7. ECONOMY ========== -------------------------- 7.1. STARTING BUILD ORDERS -------------------------- At the start of the game, build 2-3 Mass Extractors and Power Generators, then a Land or Air Factory. The Land Factory should build a few T1 engineers as well as the usual assortment of ground units. To keep your early economy optimized, have the Commander finish building the Mass Extractors in your immediate area, then start constructing more factories with a few Power Generators next to each so that you don't run out of energy. At least one Engineer should be patrolling any trees or rocks near your base for an early economic boost, while another builds more Mass Extractors and a third builds a Hydrocarbon Power Plant if you have one near you, or Power Generators if you don't. At this early point, it's often preferable to build land scouts instead of a T1 radar tower. You'll usually want both Land and Air Factories early on, with the Air Factory pumping out fighters and the occasional bomber. Naval Factories are a bigger investment, but establishing an early sea presence can force opponents to waste valuable resources on defenses or subs. It's also possible to kick an opponent out of the air by patrolling your fighters just outside his base so that any fighters he builds are shot down. Don't tech up until you have multiple factories, as you don't want to be cut off from producing units. Don't forget to upgrade your Mass Extractors; it's cheaper and safer than building Fabricator farms. ---------------------- 7.2. ADJACENCY BONUSES ---------------------- 7.2.1. HOW THEY WORK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Mass and Energy values displayed in your interface are really decimal numbers, but they are displayed with the values floored to the nearest whole number. For instance, an interceptor that costs 0.975 mass per second will be displayed as costing 0 mass per second. When economic production structures are built next to structures that use their resources, they provide an "adjacency bonus": that structure uses less of those resources. For instance, the factory building that interceptor will use less mass per second to make it if it is built next to mass extractors or mass fabricators, and it will use less energy per second if it is built next to power generators. Similarly, mass and energy storage buildings provide adjacency bonuses to economic production structures. For instance, mass storage buildings placed next to a mass extractor will actually increase the extractor's output. The adjacency bonus is percentage-based and goes by the percentage of the building that is surrounded by bonus-granting buildings. For instance, a T1 power generator will grant a certain adjacency bonus to a factory if all sides of the factory are covered with T1 power generators, and 50% of that adjacency bonus if two sides of the factory are covered with T1 power generators. You can tell an adjacency bonus is working when a small red line appears between the two buildings. For this to occur, at least 1/2 of the building's sides must touch each other. (You can't put a T3 power generator touching one square of a mass extractor and expect it to grant a bonus to the mass extractor's energy use.) Adjacency bonuses are still in effect even when the bonus-granting buildings are turned off. (This means you can turn off your fabricators and they will still make adjacent buildings more effective.) Finally, although not an "adjacency bonus", rebuilding a structure on its own wreckage will reduce the cost of the structure by 50%. 7.2.2. THE NUMBERS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remember that all mass producers are also power consumers. More complete data for non-maximum bonuses can be found in each unit's section. All sides have identical adjacency bonuses.
