WHEN YOU BUILD A SHELTER SEND A FEW DAMAGED ENFORCERS INSIDE THE SHELTER.
NOW,WHILE THEY ARE HEALING ,JUST BEFORE THEY GET FULLY HEALED CLICK ON
THE UNIT ,SELECT FIRST PERSON VIEW AND GET OUT OF THE SHELTER BEFORE YOU
ARE FULLY HEALED.A KIND OF A MEDICAL GUARD WILL APPEAR AROUND THE UNIT.
REPEAT THIS ON DIFFERENT UNITS AND YOU WILL HAVE A SPECIAL SQUAD THAT CAN
HEAL ITSELF WITHOUT GOING INSIDE THE SHELTER AND WASTING TIME.YOU DO NOT
HAVE TO TELL IT TO REPAIR ITSELF. IT WILL REPAIR ITSELF ON IT’S OWN BUT
YOU SHOULD GIVE THEM A LITTLE REST SO THAT THEY CAN REGENERATE THEIR
SHIELD AND ARMOR.

Tip 1
—–
In the early game, the basic defensive turrets can stop the computer-
controlled AI dead in its tracks. Make the entry to your base area a
field of turrets, and you can leave it on autopilot for quite a while.
Tip 2
—–
Of course, you’ll also run into the turrets set up by the computer-
controlled player. To take these out, bring on a strike force of units
equipped with plasma rifles and set their initiative to low. With a
low initiative, your forces (when given the order) will attack in place
rather than advance. Then move within range of your rifles, but beyond
the range of the turrets and simply pummel your enemies into submission.
Tip 3
—–
If you can spot an attack force early on, send out a squad or two to
meet it. Then backpedal toward your base. More often than not, one of
the opposing units will advance ahead of its comrades. Concentrate all
of your fire on it, and it will either retreat or get destroyed. Keep
up this tactic, and you can decimate a large attack force with only a
few units.
Tip 4
—–
Keep your eyes on your mines! If a mine gets destroyed, it will take
forever to build another one. Also, make sure that you keep track of
how many BTUs your mine has left, and locate another site for a new
mine before you run dry.
Tip 5
—–
When you locate an enemy base, first take out the military factories
and then the constructors. Finally, escort in your own constructors
to capture the remaining structures to give you a new home away from
home.
Easy wins:
———-
Note: This can only be used when you can set the starting resource. If you
set the starting resource to 1, let your resource stock up until you can
afford a mine. Because your opponent will spend all of his resources on
everything, you can assemble a small army to destroy him.
