Easily selecting units:
When you have many units of soldiers or vehicles, first select all the units.
Then, press [Ctrl] and a number (0 to 9) to find the selected unit.


Americans: Prevent enemy from passing:
When playing as the Americans, put six Rocket Soldiers and four Snipers
inside a building. They will stop any enemy movement nearby, even the
helicopter combat drop. The Rockets Soldiers will tear any vehicle and
airship, while snipers take out Soldiers. You can use this to defend your
base or specific places.


Americans: Helicopter pilots always eject:
If you are playing as the Americans and a ranked (veteran, elite, or heroic)
helicopter gets shot down, you can force the pilot to eject. Quickly use the
green drag-box to attempt to select the helicopter as it is falling out of
the sky. You will not actually select the crashing aircraft, but the pilot
should eject every time.


Allied artillery:
Use the Strategy Center's Bombardment. It will be same as the Artillery.
Note: If you shoot very close to the Strategy Center, it cannot fire.


Build order
Here is a suggested order in which you can build your base so that you
get lots of money as quickly as possible. Note that this is only one method,
and that there are plenty of other build orders that are just as good.


Deploy the Moveable Construction Vehicle, then build power, barracks, refinery,
power, weapons factory, then harvester (1 or 2). You should now be earning a
steady income which you can build upon.


Generate lots of cash
To have a steady flow of cash, build/train lots of Supply Dropzones,
Hackers or Black Markets.


Multiplayer allies
When you are playing a multiplayer game, if there are two allies, make
one of them GLA. Now build a tunnel network beside your friend and give
him troopers and vehicles.


Play as Russia
Bring up the command console then type the following to get units with
names from some of the old Command and Conquer game titles: Russia:Yuri_Relived

Flying man:
Destroy one of the GLA's assault trucks (Technicals) and the rebel in the back will
go flying. Note: Sometimes the rebel can get hit when falling if there area lot of
Technicals, however this is rare.

Skirmish award requirements:

Air Wing Honor: Build over 20 aircraft in a solo or multi-player mode mission.
Apocalypse Honor: Build each of the Super Weapons.
Battle Tank Honor: Build over 50 tanks in a solo or multi-player mode mission.
Blitz Honor: Defeat an enemy in less than 10, 5, or 3 minutes.

GLA Campaign Honor: Complete GLA's campaign mode

earned in increments of three points for each victory.

Corporal: 5
Sergeant: 10
Lieutenant: 20
Captain: 50
Major: 100
Colonel: 200
Brigadier General: 500
General: 1,000
Commander in Chief: 2,000

Chinese: Bigger nuclear explosion:
First, build a Nuclear Missile. Then, upgrade the Mine Cluster (must gain three star
generals first). When the Nuclear Missile is ready, drop the Mine Custer at the
enemy base. After that, launch the Nuclear Missiles to where you dropped the
mine.

Chinese: Defend base:
Have some Gattling Tanks and Tank Hunters to defend the base. Also have a
Speaker to heal the troops. The Tank Hunters will kill all the tanks and the Gattling
Tank will kill all the soldiers and aircraft.

Chinese: Easy win:
First get a Radar, then quickly get a Dozer to build a Supply Depot. Quickly build a
Factory and start pumping some APsS (Troop Crawler) and send them to the
enemy base. Have at least two APCs. Then, swam them with your infantry.

No Chinese ground-based invasion is complete without an ECM tank or two. The
best invasion consists of an even number of Overlord or Emperor Overlord tanks,
half of which are upgraded with Propaganda Towers and half with Gattling
Cannons. The ECM tanks, when close by, will detour more than half of the missiles
fired at your tanks (which is useful against annoying, yet powerful Scorpion
Rockets). They can also deactivate nearby vehicles, which is useful when
encountering an Overlord Tank or any other ominous threat.

GLA: Two armies for the price of one:
Use Jarrem Kell to kill the driver of an USA or China Construction Dozer. Then,
send a soldier or Jarrem inside the dozer. You will be able to construct all the
installations of that army.

GLA: Quick win:
At the start of the match, build an Arms Dealer as soon as possible. Once
established, build a Technical and send it directly into your enemies base around
the side where they have no defenses. Considering this is done at the start, if you
were quick enough they will not have any defenses at all yet. Once in the enemy's
base, start shooting their supply trucks or running over their workers that are
collecting money. Note: This will not work if the enemy is the USA; fill the
Technical with Terrorists, go over to their base. and blow up their Supply Depot.
This little and inexpensive attack will cause major problems for your enemy
because it will stop them receiving money for about one minute, allowing you to
get an extra $3,000 dollars or so. If you are playing online, your enemy is most
likely to surrender after this ordeal.
