    1v1 Standard BC lend me you ears!!

    ok guys i've heen whoring out deathmatch to get my General rank (much quicker in my opinion).

    Now i want to go back to Standard but my problem is that i forgot all my strateges... 

    i worked soo hard to get that, that i've forgotten the days of standard... please share you tips and tricks...

    i used to play with forge in standard but i want to start using BC....

    i can never count on ramdoms on 2v2 or 3v3 i end up having to bail them out which impacts my development negatively...

    i know i can get back there but i'm just looking to do it faster...

    ^^^^ ok

    How do you start out your base...     I normally do Temple; W; W; W; then bless the warehouses and slowly build from there...

    it just takes soo long to get enough supplies to upgrade my infantry army...

    Re: 1v1 Standard BC lend me you ears!!

    ok.  I play Anders most and my tactic requires good teammates to help save me if I get rushed.  But this is how it goes, I build economy first, then my warmachines

     

    Build reactor first, then 3 resource buildings.  Build 1 hog, and send out first hog to get crates.  Once reactor is up and second hog, put turret on hog.  Then have both hogs go kill and claim a secondary base.  

     

    Build a secondary base and put three resource pads on it.  at first base upgrade it, put a second and third reactor, upgrade all supply pads to heavy.  

     

    on second base, upgrade and build three Aircraft Pads, rest are all heavy resource pads.

     

    use one aircraft pad to upgrade hornets while second and third pads build hornets.  Sent 2 warthogs to discover enemy bases and what forces they have, this is to best maneuver the Hawks to cripple the enemy bases.  Hogs should be left to die.

     

    Upgrade one of the reactors to tech 4 (sometimes this can be skipped if you claim a forerunner reactor on the map) and build hawk upgrade.  Once hawk upgrade is grabbed, kill a single reactor, in it's place put a field armory pad, then research reserves and increase population.  

     Build more hawks.  

     

    While you rape with your air fleet, also rebuild new hawks.  With just two bases you should have plenty of money to rebuild your army faster than the enemy.  

     

    Always keep funds set aside for disrupters, as they will always save you.  Never attack a base that has anti-air vehicles, or a fleet of vampires.  

     If your gonna lose out always attack human bases and take our reactors and vehicle factories/aircraft pads.  

     

    And try to cordinate with teamates.

    just a quick lesson, I have used this tactic and survived a rush on my bases.  Granted I had 20 hawks, and lost my two bases, I quickly relocated to a base across the map with my hawks, built 1 new base, put supply pads, 1-upgraded reactor, and 1 aircraft pad...I continued for 20 more minutes and ended up being the victory with 6 bases on the map and 7k score.  So Anders is a good leader if you know how to use her.

    ^^^^^ i like you idea of having 2 bases implemented early in the game... i'll have to try it... i usually wait a while before starting another....

    do you guys agree?!?

    No.

    That is the most pathetic Anders strategy I've ever seen.

    You will lose EVERY game if you use that tactic against someone with a few braincells.

    Tech straight to Hawks = worst idea ever.

    Just ignore that other guy completely.

    If you play as the Covenant, you should be able to work off 1 base for quite a while. Don't tech straight up to Age of Doubt, use the early game Covenant advantage and harass the enemy with your leader and other units like Wraiths and Banshees. Only research a different Age when you have ample resources, don't sit there and save up for it; 1000 resources is a lot.

    haha, you got rushed when you only had 20 hawks? must of happened pretty early in the game *sarcasm*

    fyi a rush is an attack with intent to win inside of 3-4 minutes so you won't see hawks, and probably not hornets either

    when im usin Brute i usually go temple warehouse que up 2 brute squads before getting my second ware house then que up more brutes at most 2 at a time and with spare resources put more warehouses on your base you should be able to continually pump brutes and get enough warehouses on your base if you collect enough crates with yoru chopper and as soon as my temple done i get the money outu side my base with my leader not chopper send that across the map for their crates first


    Im not the best player around i know that but my god im sure ive had some of the worst on my team ¬¬

    this works well.... 

    So far i've only lost a few games on against the POR when he wipped out a scarab, i was like wtf!!! 

    the other 2 against BC.. they did a rush right as the game started... with the BC, brutes and jackles... i tried doing the same against other players but could get my supplies in fast enough to pump enough units..

    if he out brutes you your best bet would be to still make brutes but try to sneak in the vortex upgrade that would take care of the jackles the brutes would take a bit longer to deal with but if you wanted to stay at his base and try to make him recall get inheritence (spelling?) although my advice probably isnt the best as i have next to none experience in 1 v 1
