NOD TUTORIAL -1
MOVING OUT
At the beginning, you’re in a
gorge that heads roughly south
from where you have started.
Eight more Nod Minigunners will
come onto the board, ready for
you to use. As you move these
men, GDI units will attack from the
West. They are your first con-
frontation.
Select several of your Minigun-
ners, and target them on the
enemy soldiers. To select a group
of units, left click and hold the mouse button near the group that you want selected. Now,
while holding the mouse button, move the mouse cursor across the group you want select-
ed. You will notice that a box is being created as you move the mouse cursor. Expand the
box to include all the units you want in the group. Now let go of the mouse button. All of
the units in the box are now selected and will move as a group.
Left click on the enemy unit you want to attack. Your troops will move towards the target-
ed enemy and engage them. (Tip: Try to have several Minigunners gang up on particular
targets.)
Minigunner troops will attack automatically if they are being fired on directly, or if the tar-
get is within their own attack range. Minigunners will not fire automatically if the enemy unit
firing on them is out of the Minigunners’ range.
SOPHISTICATED
SCOUTING
If you want to direct a unit to
look for anything coming at it
and engage it automatically, you
can put it into “Guard” mode.
(See Advanced Play, Page 30)
Now that you’ve dealt with the
immediate threat, move your
troops down the screen, making
sure to explore the area as you
proceed, so no GDI forces can
sneak up on you. When you meet resistance from GDI troops, use overwhelming numbers
to kill them quickly, so you don’t lose your forces.
When you arrive at the bottom of the map, proceed to the west, using the same tactics as
before.
