Tips for a C&C n00b?

[lunarwolf]

Im keep getting my arse handed to me on C&C,

LOL I know the feeling. I love to turtle, build good economy and raise giga army; this works in single player, but I get punished in less than five minutes in multi, because it's all about rushing (tank and/or infantry) and a little economic harassement for the more evolved barabarians out there.

You can try to set up a rule where you all agree to not attack for a preset time (10 minutes), but not really the C&C way of thinking. Had some good matches on Age of Empires like that.

Otherwise learn to deal with the rush. A good way is to check out good players do it (not me) by watching their replays - visit site below if you want to master C&C this is a good place to start

tank rush f t w

Thats what I do pretty much, i build an airforce, a load of guys and then a few long range tanks and a few short range tanks then send them in. By the time the tanks get there the planes haev wiped out the majority of the enemies defences

build an airforce and take down base defenses???

who are you playing?? not a good idea.
1. airforce is expensive and long to build
2. dangerous to send airforce to enemy base - if opponent has a only couple of anti air units (fixed or mobile) then you are screwed.
