HELP S.O.S

[crockerjc82]

i need help, i am playing the campaign, and i do the first few missions and i get back to my main base and i have to go up against the paradigm and i get my butt handed to me on a plate. how do i get past em, i am runnin version 2.2.2 can u enable cheats to beat em or is there another way. please help S.O.S

actually try to do all with out cheats. it takes a bit of practice... perhaps do some skirmish against the ai's for awhile... but if you want the cheats - look up and click the user guide and or the development tab...

think about the units you are using.
explore and use the map.

use plenty of mortars & sensor towers, with enough mg's to cover them from direct attack.
have units retreat at medium damage, to be repaired at the lz by repair turrets, rather then killed.

i usually build allot of tank traps and bunkers to give Paras something to waste time with while my mortars kill them one by one.Tank traps are really good for it,so are the walls.Specially if i block the road with them.

im a traditionalist blast with HMG lancers and cannon. use towers and hardpoints and bunkers sometimes i add bunkerbusters in cam II especially rarely use indirect unless necessary, otherwise is machinegun and cannon blasts

For repairing units i just make a Command Unit, put in two or more repair units, and the rest tanks or Anti-Tank units. Works wonders..

ok, i will give it a try, i can get down the road part between the small mountains but i can't get any farther before the timer runs out. i will just work at it and hopefully beat it.

If the timer is running out then you are using the wrong tactics.

Are you talking about Alpha 5?

[crockerjc82]

yeah, i think so, i finally got it, had less then 5 minutes left when i beat it. took forever it seems. thanks for all the advice. if i run into any more problems i will be sure to look at the forums for help.

[themousemaster]

Take a look at my guide-rewrite in progress. If you survived Alpha5, you will get a bit of a chance to recover, but only if you know how to handle what's coming up ;p
