Hi, I'm an usa player in Generals (not ZH) and I have trouble beating my friend (14 wins no losses online). He uses dodgy tactics which always seems to prevail. what he does first up is not build tanks, but he just build tons of base defenses, and i mean TONS, and once his defenses are up, he builds TONS of migs plus 3 superweapons. I play USA and to counter his migs i always put my first general point onto paladins and save the second. I skip scout drones coz i know he's never going to send in his tanks and he's only going to use migs and super and nothing else. and USA has terrible AA. I expand as quickly as I can, go for oil derricks first. When he builds a super weapon i usually send 4 aurora bombers but I usually lose them all (but hey they served their purpose), but I would be losing around 5 grand coz 4 auroras are more expensive than 1 nuke silo. Another way i found was to use particle cannon to wipe out his power plants then send in aurora bombers, i still lose some but not as much. Once I couldn't handle his migs and I sent in 4 screen full of paladins/missile defender/tomahawks and I still couldn't break through his defenses :S Is there anyway to go around this? I can beat him once he runs out of money because he never builds hackers, but any other alternatives?
