Good evening ladies,

DENY ACCESS
They key is to block the accessability of your construction yard.
Build it up against the side of the screen, or against a ridge in the
natural terrain. Write to me (rag...@powhq.nildram.co.uk) if you want
to know more about my efforts at producting full size, full color,
PAPER maps of the standard multiplayer map terrain. 

You can build your important structures in such a way as to create a
natural barrier between the path of enemy tanks and your construction
yard. Because players tend to concentrate solely on removing the key
buildings, tank rushes are slowed as they maneuver into firing range.

REPAIR TO DEFEAT
Build a barracks behind your construction yard. If you are in the
northern part of the map, you can actually hide it well. The point is
to have a place from where you can send engineers without getting them
squashed. The engineers will keep your construction yard alive long
enough for you to dent your opposition.

SUMMARY
The principles of denial of access and repairing to defeat help me
survive enemy first-strikes. Thus, allowing my own tanks a counter
strike at the enemy and still have a home to which they can return.
