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.
