STRATEGY GAME
You play from the perspective of a sentient cloud with the ability to take over the minds of small planet-bound creatures and tell them what to build and who to fight. Either that, or maybe the top-down view is just a convenient way to view a battlefield. Everything from the tiniest peon, to the largest battlecruiser and back to the mediumest tank will be under your command. Make sure you dole out your orders carefully. Without specific instructions, your units' lack of common sense or sense of self-preservation make them easy targets for the purple team (nobody likes losing to the purple guys). With so much to worry about, finding the best strategy to win can seem overwhelming. That's why we created this chart. If you're ever not sure what to do next, just refer to the diagram below, and in a few short steps ultimate victory will be yours.
Pro-tips:
•If you suck at games, download a saved film of a good player and pretend it's you playing. Send it to the girl/guy of your choice, and use the subject: "Just one of my warm-ups last Friday night." They will be very impressed.
•Try to hide at least two buildings in remote, tactically useless areas. Your opponent will have to find and destroy these after wiping out your main base, and if you're lucky, he may get tired and quit instead.
•Have someone else ask your opponent what their strategy is and then report back to you. Use appropriate countermeasures and win the battle.
