how to win vs comp_brutal_ gdi as gdi (on barstow) ,

[pietro]

anyone can help me out on this one : trying for weeks now .

Good luck with that.:|

The ONLY thing I can think of would be to MCV rush the comp via the bridge ASAP. If you're lucky, you just might be able to capture both the crane and con yard, thus halting it's production capabilities (unless it already built the factory, in which case you're gonna be in for one rough heck of a time).

And whatever you do, don't idle, period. Because the moment that Brutal GDI gets up to full speed, its all over for you.

Have won vs brutal turtle yesterday. Now go try brutal other.

The way I did : hold bunker near spike asap (power + barracks), capt spike, put 2 more missele-def in bunker. Put soldiers in 1 house north and south just to harrass comp-engies.
Meanwhile build 2 refs, next warfac ( go 2 apc's + missele-def for early defence, next 3 extra harvies), and tech up asap : go for railkanon upgrade and start building only mammoths : send them after enemy-harvies in the middle.
After techcenter build extra ref + extra warfac.
2 warfacs is enough : 1 north, other south : master tiberium fields and then go to base
Finished game in about 12 minutes

Alternativ to hold first bunker asap : sell first power to get soldiers.
But then your uptech-going looses some time.
Against turtle : comp always goes ref first, so this alternative way is not nessesary.

ps : is there a spelling checker around here ?

beat GDI brut rusher in under 4 if you want to see it...

SgtRicko's strat gets my vote. With higher than 10k start, you could afford to turtle then kill them when they run out of money. seems to be the defacto strat against AI...

Did u know?

AS long as any rusher brutal does not have access to blue tib, it will waste its money on rushing?

All u need to do is survive (been a while since I have faced one, but I rather be playing online), use mech units, capture em back, win

Tried MCV rush : works great vs brutal turtle. Failure vs hard turtle : killed 1 engie and 2 missiledefs with mcv on the bridge ( lol ) but missiledefs in bunker killed the mcv.
... Had to look at utube to see what mcv-rush meant ! am I noob now ?

you could build lots of sonic emitter in the center and wait for the foolish computer to rush to them, after their tib field is harvested up, it's time to sold all your defensive buildings and draw your army to their base, because they will have no money to train any forces that time.
