It took me an embarrasingly long time to realize how stupid it was to have one massive unit blob attack a base. Once the AA has shot down the aircraft it runs right at the Attack Move/Guard point and gets slaughtered. The support units are worse, usually ending up leading the blob. Now I break down my units into "divisions" that have specialized roles so I can minimize the micromanagement needed in PvE games.
Russia Base Breaker (doubles as defensive force) 5 x Sentinel (with Warden Missiles) 4 x Msta Artillery Division 9 x Msta USA Base Breaker 6 x Paladin 3 x Tomahawk Launcher Anti-Aircraft 9 x Chaparral Precision Air Strike 2 x Nighthawk ECA Base Breaker 6 or 9 x Leopard 3 x Mortar Track Anti-Aircraft 6 x Wotan 3 x Gepard Flakpanzer China Base Breaker 5 x Overlord (With gattling turret) 4 x Inferno Cannon In early game I tend to put individual helicopters in a group and send them to my secondary supplies (which the AI attacks as the closest threat). This lets me easily recall my helicopters to protect my base. Feel free to add your attack groups you usually deploy for various factions. This post has been edited by Jakato: 30 Jan 2018, 14:03 |

What the hell are you hunting? Also your lack of anti infantry weapons disturb me Only 2 nighthawks+3 tommahawks? Which AI is this? Im not a PVE guy what so ever but this seems very small or the numbers very few to do any real damage even with superb micro -------------------- |

x9 Patriots? What the hell are you hunting? The idea is that the AA stays behind the assault force and shoots over the assault force to take out aircraft engaging them. This means I want to have enough AA to kill anything quickly. So I take the "no kill like overkill" route. Because the AA hangs back, there may be a limited time fighters etc are in range of the AA. Which AI is this? Im not a PVE guy what so ever but this seems very small or the numbers very few to do any real damage even with superb micro It's 1.85 Hard AI. The 1.86 patch doesn't work which also stops me from seeing Mizo's 1.87 work. I think I see some confusion with the topic. I'm talking about what kind of groups are used. I use multiple base breaker groups, based on these "template" base breaker groups. I do use just one artillery/AA group usually. |

45-50 Workers would overwhelm any base.
