Vanilla China Tactics Options

[Rohan]

So here I go with my Vanilla China Tactics which I find to be very effective.

1) Build two Dozers and immediately build a War Factory and an Airfield.

2) Build three Tiger Gunships. Tigers are anti-air, anti-armour, anti-building and anti-infantry. Micro the Launch Grenade Ability to take out Dozers and Tech Structures of the Enemy. Doing this quickly will deal a huge blow to the enemy.

3) Make Three Gattling Tanks and take out Aerial Supply Vehicles. Use Listening Outposts to Scout an area and also to prevent aircraft from running away. With Three Listening Outposts an area can easily become a no fly zone for jets.

4) Build a Propaganda Center, Internet Center and another War Factory. Fill the Internet Center with Hackers and buy the Satellite Scan upgrade to reveal enemy Command Centers.

5) With one War Factory, Use this Build Order- Battlemaster - Gattling Tank - ECM Tank - Listening Post - Battlemaster. With The second War Factory spam Hack Vans and put them in safe places. This gives you a very good secondary economy.

6) Research Mass Production and Autoloaders. Use Propaganda Trucks from Propaganda Center to heal your forces. From here on spam this Build Order from both War factories- Battlemaster - Gattling Tank - ECM Tank - Listening Post - Battlemaster. With Horde Bonus and Propaganda Effect, your Forces become invincible.

7) Make four Mig Bombers and use their EMP Ability to shut down defenses before attacking with your forces. Use Tigers to add firepower to your forces. Use Ctrl+ Number 1,2,etc to group your forces.

8) Your Chinese Attack Force should consist of Battlemasters, Gattling Tanks, ECM Tanks, Listening Outposts (for stealth detection), Tiger Gunships and Propoganda Trucks.

9) Using Overlords is not advised considering they are slow and the Nuclear Engines Upgrade (which make Overlords fast) is Available at the Nuclear Missile which is not allowed as it is a Superweapon in Multiplayer Matches.

10) Use Dragon Tanks to harass the enemy Early Game. Avoid using Dragon Tanks late game to avoid Friendly fire.

11) Use Inferno and Nuke cannons to outrange the enemy. Not necessary considering Battlemaster Spam is greater than an Artillery Strike. Use 3 Inferno Cannons to create Fire Storms and block off Choke Points for your enemy.

12) Purchase the Mine Upgrade for all your buildings to make stealth ambushes futile.

That's it. Thoughts Everyone.

Thanks for the replay.

I guess AT shells are powerful after all.

For reference, 5 of them pop open the roof of a Mantis Tank like an elephant crushing a soda can, and their fire rate is just incredible, getting only better and better with Propaganda on. And you just have to crosstech with USA to see what Search and Destroy can do to these monsters.

I agree. I tried the AT shells out in a skirmish match - they were amazing. It was all that was needed to hold Ironside in his base. That wasn't even including the strategy center... If it was, I think Ironside wouldn't be able to even scratch my inferno cannons.
