Protect The Controller

Easy peasy as long as you get the start right.

  1. Take the George just north of the controller and use stand ground (maybe easiest to drive it through the pyramid over the controller using 1st person mode).
  2. Get the research going immediately - Ion Cannon is first.
  3. Get the constructors going - build a satellite uplink, and some military factories. Get the knights going.
  4. The base to the south needs to be taken out relatively quickly, a good technique:
    1. 1st person  the big ballista.
    2. Blow up the gates - most of the stuff around there will now mutually annihilate.
    3. Destroy the factories and constructors.
    4. Try to capture the pod - this will allow you to have multiple Ion-Cannons!
  5. Build nukes.
  6. Drop nukes on the enemy pods, use Ion-cannons on the turrets and mop up with level 5 knights.
  7. Oh yes, watch out for the "hidden" base with the enemy nukes. You have a few minutes before they fire and are correctly protected - a 1st person foray with a knight should do the trick.
