to Alex's Warcraft strategy corner

I've referred to the strategies and hint's here with humans but they for their orcish counterparts as well.


1: Use farms as walls.It's better than wasting gold on too many towers and they last longer.

2: Use guard towers instead of cannon towers.Cannons do not attack arial units.


3: Keep groups of units patrolling nearby each other.They last longer this way.

3: Cut lumber selectively.They make good natural walls and beat farms and towers.

4: Try the formation on the left.Very effective against computer except in a few levels.Call it formation Romans.Keep building on this.Footmen and knights in first rows.Next come achers .Then ballistas and mages,demolition squads etc.You get the idea.

5: It can be used for all land,sea and air units.

6: Best keep inits in formation romans in the same order.Can use variations.

7: Be sure to heal griffon riders at low health.They're costlier, you know.

8: Explore the map fast.

9: Patrol ships on lookout for orc transport vessels.

10: Always take a couple of subs to attack orc vessels. There may be enemy turles floating around them.

11: It's best to render demolition squads on missions invisible. Don't have to worry bout guards this way.

12: Dock your transport ships far from the orc base if your invading. They won't notice you then.

13: Patrol units in stages with catapults and dragons.This way they don't get hit.

14: Build a town hall as close to the mine as possible.Same goes for shipyards and oil refineries.

15: This one's a good (but slow) way to finish the orc's.Call it luring.Be sure to be in formation romans first.Take a peasant and bring him into the orc's range.When they follow bring the peasant back.The orc (or orcs) should be following. Watch your soldiers kill the orc then.Repeat.


13: Remember to save your game often if you're progressing or else..

I'll be putting up maps eventually,but they'll be damn hard.Not for wimps.
