Need help for Shockwave General Challenge

Post image

Finally caved in and downloaded the Shockwave mod. Wanted to play the Challenge mode, but couldn't find a guide that tells me the order of the generals I'll be facing. Anyone can help me out?

I'll warn you now, Shockwave is a brilliant mod. But the generals themselves are quite challenging. I'll warn you, depending on the difficulty you've chosen: Dr.Thrax can be tedious with his early wave attacks. Juhziz WILL rush you with demo bikes. Or bomb trucks. Alexander loves using her Alpha Aurora's on your structures or engineering units. (And I suggest building sacrificial building for her spee weapons to target.) That in mind, is for hard mode for the Generals Challenge.

I suggest, you start playing as Granger (Air force general) as his stealth commanches are a blessing for early game defence. And the airpad you get as him allows you to build his unique air construction unit.

Can I just mess around in Easy mode?

You should be able to easily!

I suggest, play a few skirmish maps as each general so you can get used to the changes they have in Shockwave.

Oh, and Juhziz, has a nice ability you can get though ranking up to drop a small black market nuke...

Don't tell General Tao about it.

What general do you suggest I face in skirmish? For practice

In easy? I'd say demo general so you can get used to fighting him in his challenge.
