Great to see MIGs in action (even if not economical). Troll game using MIGs / Hinds / Nukes only + base defense but no base walking would be great to watch
I think one of the most frustrating things I see you do (and I love your videos by the way) is that you'll cancel tanks to build MCVs and then not queue tanks up again. And so many times, this leads to zero production and wasted ore through being silo'd
Added frustration is he takes ages to deploy the MCV's and thus not gaining any advantage from having them yet spending lots of money to get them. As soon as your MCV is built it needs deploying ASAP to utilise the speed advantage.
@@CraigNiel That's the beauty of the game tho, isn't it! Do you sacrifice microing your tanks to get those MCVs deployed and if so, what is the cost in additional tank losses of doing so...?
@@alexwoodroffe9477 It can be done quickly if in a battle. Ideally doing it when you're not in a Tank battle is better but if you are engaging it's quick enough to jump back to the base and deploy it especially with a Radar.
Zack, when moving all your forces to a location try to select an area of unrevealed terrain then all ground Units (Tanks) will go there but any Air Units (Migs in this case) will not. 👍👍
Migs are quite frustrating to me. Good that you use them. Mastering all weapons is a hard task. But there is no real fight with migs while tank battles are more appealing for the viewer. There is suspence : will there be reinforcement ? will there be a tesla that pops up ? You have been quite gentle in this game. An attack from the bottom in the green base would have been devastating. You tried it the hard way : right in the tesla wall and tanks wall :-D and still, you prevail ! Nice to see different tactics, different strategies. Thanks for bringing those to use !
At 19:30, instead of entering the tesla wall, you could have taken out his economy by destroying 5 or 6 (at least) ore trucks that were mining outside of his base.
Not a fan of migs but when you have such a low action early game and have good eco they do start to get to work quite fast without hindering the tank production. Great game Zack!
Yes you can guide them back home again. It's easier done if the migs are flying in tight formation so that they launch their missiles simultanously. That's why you should build the airfields together. If you had grouped them in pairs they could have been used to take out those tesla coils, unless Aftermatch is on then it takes 3 migs for each tesla coil.
Are you referring to command and conquer Retaliation. That was the version of aftermath which was released on the ps1. The remastered version on the PC does not include that. I used to play it on the ps1.
@ I see. There are a few games on my channel which involve Tesla Troops, Chrono Tanks and Missile Subs but the majority have aftermath units switched off. The reason is due to the building speed not increasing after 2 buildings. For this reason most players prefer those units switched off but i will bear this in mind for future videos.
@ shame u cant toggle it off? would it be stupidly unbalanced if u cud i thought you didnt play many cos its super unbalanced Sovs is ridic OP with Aftermath units on
Yeah it was players copying the name. We did know which players were who because they all used different numbers so players worked out who was who from their steam friends list.

Great constructive criticism comment 👍 agreed

I'm a fan of Migs. GG for you and Sweeny. Well played
Thank you:)

That's a good point
Migs!
Lol. Thanks really appreciate it:)
i'd love to see a Yak troll game

Though it would be something a bit different:)
Love the videos, have a pint on me. 🍺

True
I forgive you, Zack... for the airfields :)
It was going to well until that one lol.

Thanks. It is very rare that I use migs in a game but it is sometimes fun to do something different.

Never knew that it changed with aftermath. Good to know.
Enjoyed!
Thanks:)
Great work
Thanks
gg :)
Thanks:)
Also some Tempest Rising videos would be grear.. definitely seems like the new CNC
Why never any Reatalion games?

@@ZacktheReaper I meant the Aftermath units tesla chrono tanks etc

I don't understand why you have dominance over the top of his base.You're not destroying his ore trucks.
Cripple his economy then he can't fight you
Yeah I could of in that game. I think I was just totally concentrating on the migs that I forgot about a lot of the other stuff.
How much you earned in your first year on youtube ads video?
Might do a video at some point from start of TH-cam channel to present. I will have done my first full monitised year at the start of April.
