General Strategies:
-------------------
By David "DaveOneX" Parunakyan
This guide explains how things should be done in
Tiberian Dawn. This includes base buildup and management,
defense setup, achievement of combat leadership and attacks
on hostile bases.
The first thing you will have to do is to build your base.
I recommend the following scheme of building your base:
Power Plant
Barracks/Hand of Nod
Tiberium Refinery
Advanced Power Plant
Weapons Factory/Airstrip
Communications Center
Service Depot
Weapons Factory/Airstrip
Advanced Power Plant
Tiberium Refinery and several Tiberium Silos
Advanced Communications Center or Temple of Nod
Several Helicopter Pads
Base defensive perimeter
While building all this, keep in mind the following tips:
1. Build several defensive structures once you already have
something to protect.
2. Place Tiberium Refineries close to Tiberium fields so you
harvest Tiberium faster.
3. Always build a second Harvester for each refinery.
4. Surround your vital structures, such as the Construction
Yard, with walls if the enemy is likely to send Engineers.
5. Place your Airstrips closer to the eastern side of your
base so cargo is delivered faster.
6. Make sure you protect your Weapons Factory properly,
because it is very vulnerable.
7. Don't build too many Tiberium Silos, because you are
likely to spend money faster than you get Tiberium in
quantities required to store.
8. Build your Helicopter Pads close to each other so your
aircraft attack enemy targets altogether.
9. While building your defensive perimeter, don't make the
passages too tight so your army can get out of the base,
but don't make them too wide either, so the enemy cannot
rush into your base. Besides, make sure there are no weak
points in your perimeter.

Now that you have your base up and running, attend to
the battles around it. I recommend sending out scouts
and revealing a large portion of the map so you are
always aware of what your enemy is doing. Besides, always
keep medium strength groups on the major routes to your
base so they engage the attacking enemy first.
Another important thing is to engage the enemy where you
want and not where the enemy wants. If your units are faster,
hit and run the enemy force until you bring them to your
chosen point. If your units are slower but have more firepower,
either try to surround the enemy, or move your whole army in
a single tight group against the enemy force. What regards
choosing places to fight your enemy -- if your opponent has
fewer vehicles than you (quantity is important), try moving
through tight places and then coming around, blocking the
enemy in the valley and methodically destroying it. If you
don't have many vehicles, try withdrawing to the entrance
into your base, because then the enemy will have to engage
more hostiles, including your defensive structures.
If you are trying to attack the enemy and he sends out a
group of units to counter you, try doing one of the following
things: if you have units with superior range, try bombarding
enemy units from afar, forcing them either to withdraw, or
to approach you. If your units have no long-range weapons,
but some of them have a high speed, launch a high-speed
assault into the enemy base to distract the enemy, and then
move in your heavy armor.
