This SHOULD be where you replays folder is located. If not search for it *pets tiio*
Rightio.
Here is a collection of my first 11 games (One is like 3 seconds long, but I keep all replays anyway).
I recommend watching sortie 6, 8 and 11. The others are slighly boring.
I find it so hard to keep a China player at bay. USA and GLA no problem, but China... **** they're everywhere!

Yeah, china does tend to be everywhere, but US or GLA forces can hit them hard enough to work. As GLA truck bombs work wonders against those massive chinese double barreled monsters, and as the US hitting them with stealths or Auroras works as well. I'd also recommend rocket buggys as GLA, these things have such a long range it's ridiculous, and hijackers if you can ambsuh them. USe your unique sniper as well to dispose of the tank crews. Angry mobs are also good against pure tanks, although gattlings make them go down fast. US, i'd say more aircraft, but back them up with some solid ground defense, your paladins should be able to hold their own with some air support. Hell, if you have it fire off your laser cannon at big clumped chinese tank groups, because this weapon hits straight away it can be used in such situations to great effectivness.
Perhaps I should actually seek out a good GLA player and find out....
GLA is tough to use, granted, but play it right and you get a very versitile force. One thing you HAVE to do as GLA is be agressive, expand quickly and take part in battles. The upgrades you gain by scavanging turn your fairly weak vehicles into damn strong forces. Once you get the Anthrax shell upgrade your tanks can chew infantry up no problem. Combinations of mauradar tanks, quad-cannons and technicals work very well, as all can be upgraded after a battle. Use your bomb trucks (upgrade their bombs individually for killer effect) sneakily to hit their formations in the feild, send your forces in to scavange afterwards and advance. USe your tunnel network well, they provide instant transportation to any other tunnel site, meaning for instance a peasent can build one near an enemy base and 5 slow moving scud launchers can arrive straight away and then by Flayra that enemy base is in trouble. Also on Scuds mix them up slightly, make one an anthrax launcher, it's effect area is huge. Get the bounty general promotion, you can really rake in the cash. Finally don't forget to use your unique infantry unit, he can shoot the crew of any vehicle and disable it, and you can then take it with any infantry unit. THrow some infantry into your technicals for this purpose if no other.
Oh yeah, grab the junk repair and ap bullet upgrades. Your forces become even more nasty.
45% of gla (thats after the 50%) rush
the last 5% are good with gla.
I hear that generals replays are at 1x only. That sucks if its the case. 8x war3 replays were always hilarious :D
China's overlord tanks seem to roll over pretty much everything except for rocket infantry and tomohawk/SCUD teams. A humvee full of rocket infantry will pack a nice punch, but doesn't really seem like it'll last long under those huge guns.
You'd figure the C&C games would have gotten OUT of this damn rut by now.
It's either get tanks early and kill them, or camp until you have your super weapon, THEN get tanks and kill them.
I'll still give it a shot over the summer (no time now), but still... Meh.
Honestly, at this point, I'm regretting not buying Splinter Cell over this.
