Tactic works pretty good, enjoy. Doc (snipped stuff from earlier post) Level 7 super-b**ch was a pussy ;-) I've beat her on hard with 4 Generals so far, Air Force / Super Weapons / Stealth & Tank. Pretty much the same tactic works for all, as follows : - Defend the bridge with a couple of Patriots / Gattling or Stingers, but have 3 or 4 Rocket Infantry to run out if she sends GLA buggies (my favourite attack vehicle ;-) - Make sure you have some static defence at the back of your base next to the supply pile, she will send GLA sneak attack in (the tunnel) which you really need to waste quick before she pumps Overlords and stuff out. - If USA, chinook a dozer up to the little village just above your base and build Patriots between the houses, timing is essential, wait for the couple of Dragon Tanks to move past on their circuit before you build. Ideally you want to build around the bridge to the north as thats where the enemy will come from. Defend up this area, capture the oil well and fixed cannon and your away. GLA, put a worker on a motorbike and drive up, China will need to Helix up a dozer. (If GLA a couple or 5 Rocket Buggies with Quad support will help you edge across the bridge and secure the East supply pile and well. China, Gattling tanks and Emperor tanks will help you punch through (beware of the 2 bunkers on the road top with Rocket troops in though, skirt round them till your ready to wipe em out), ideally you need to secure the bridge into the town as described for USA, this will give you a choke point to kill just about everything she sends). - Move your forces out across the East bridge from this new base, Rocket troops will pick off tanks and Dragons ok. - You can then secure acrossto the right of the bridge and once you've got some defence there you can move out and capture the supply pile on the east side and the oil well. - This is the tricky bit...you should have enough Generals points to use on A10 / Artillery for US and China, only destroy one of the superweapon silos just before the count down to zero, they will all reset to 12 minutes. If you are the GLA try a rebel ambush on the Scudstorm silo, you may get it, you may not. You will be able to sneak in a bomb truck though to reset the supers. - Your pretty much good to go from here, I super'd up and particle cannon'd her base and troops coming out, don't knock out her superweapons till your really ahead, if you knock out the 3 silos but only 1 at a time just before they get down to launch then they keep re-setting to 12 mins. If you destroy a super too early she will have cash to rebuild and the rebuilt one will have a much shorter launch time (normal build wait). - Finish her off by building a defence line across your side of the bridge in front of her base and the rest of the map / cash / wells etc is yours. Super weapon her command centres to stop her Generals attacks (especially Artillery) then finish her off however you please. Have a good one !
