Sadly I have not Zero Hour, just the original game.

It's still awesome though. But the three factions are unbalanced.

Ahhh... I love so much China... firestorm... dragon tank... nuke cannon... gatling guns... So sweet :icon_twisted:

SSG if i'll get Zero Hour I'll join you.

Yay I has a comment ^^ Only 2 months since the post.

Yeah, China rules with firepower, and thats why it very good for begninners(like my freind uses the tank general 24/7 and mass spams with 30 Emperor tanks and 15 nue missles after 45mins of basecamping >_>)

And we have not been playing this game in a long while, he has moved to WoW and im into Garrys Mod now, but i do have the game, just have to see if it runs, since I have not played the game since the format c. I install all my games to D (wich is why it is so full) it should run, like most of my games do.

ZOMG 30 Emperors !!11!one!

I personally think that Americans  are too  easy (especially resource gathering, seen the difference between the GLA worker and the chinook, and air superiority, the aurora bomber, the carpet bombing, and the humvee owns with antitank soldiers in)

...and GLA too hard to manage (they're great in skirmishing and have some cool updates like the Rebel invisibility, and one of the coolest units in the game, the angry mob, the GLA holes, the tunnel networks, but it's pretty much difficult to manage, and their units have weak armor, and no aircraft)

China tanks own, and most of the units are great in anti-infantry too, the bunker's great (5 tank hunters in it and it's the better anti-tank anti-air defense in the game)...  

And my all time favorite the Dragon Tank. The special attack is awesome.

Only thing i have to complain about China is the lack of speed. But still, an Emperor with a gatling on it...

MY tactic is base-camping too, then nuke missile/artillery calling combo and a mass attack (but not more than 3 emperors)

Edit: By the way, what's your favorite faction SSG?

I actually play with all of them, mostly with USA Laser General, yes the resource gathering is very over povered compared to others. Slyppy Drop Zones (2500$/2min) while GLA have to build Black Markets (75$/5sec) and China has Hackers (max10$/2sec)

I can manage very well with GLA too (Rocket Buggy spam ftw!)

Yeah, I do use Base camping very well too, but the last time I played, I was improving my rush tactics.

Me and my ferind always took a 8 player map with max opponents on medium and 2 on hard and make them in teams of 2 exept the hard ones were everyones enemies and we ofcourse are always a team. Then we divide the 6 opponents beetween eacother, so I take care of 3 and he takes care of 3. Once I had already destroyed 2 of my enemies and the last was half dead, my feind had just begun attacking his first enemy and nuking the second one.

When you say ($2500/2min), do you mean actual money?
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Ha!

No, no. The only resource in C&C Generals is money (dollars). You need it for everything (building, creating units) and you gather it from supply centers, or they are units (Hackers) or buildings (Black Markets, Drop Zones) that make you gain money regularly.

So, Americans (one of the playable factions, with the Communist China and the Global Liberation Army, a very powerful terrorist group) gather money extremely easily.

I like rocket buggies too, i even think they're faster than several planes.

I dont remember... Isn't it a plane on the Supply Dropzone that drops supply crates every minutes, or each 2,5 minutes? (and there is a countdown at the right side of the screen, like the ultimate weapons)

You should really get it SB, it's great.

Its every 2 minutes dropped from a plane, the crates can miss the platform and then become collectible by anyone and there is no counter on the side panel from this.

Ya SB, go get it. I think im gonna see if the game works after upping mah 1337 BOTM entry. :D

Oh, too bad. Just 2 players is not too fun, but it should not be too big problem.

Naryar: You can join the hamachi server even if you dont have ZH, we can play normal generals trough it too (if you didnt know that)
