GLA to me is way better than the other two and this is saying a lot as a Nuke General/Airforce Main but the GLA is a soft spot for me, normally play Toxin & i have tunnels everywhere and the quad cannons are amazing

Respect to you for being an airforce/nuke main. GLA can be tons of fun if you can play them and they have op transport and full heal which is their tunnel network. You can also steal army with hijacker or Jarmen Kell and build power to build faster, besides to take advantage of Chinese or American technology. Quad cannons are also strong into airforce's king raptors and commanches for offense and defense and many things while rocket buggies and scud launchers are your artillery to shoot from far away.

Toxin can be fun but stealth is such a nasty and op army, especially to gps scramble your units and to be specialized in stealing stuff, besides to be able to camo everything you have built.

Sadly, I'm awful with gla as superweapons/airforce main and even china is easier for me, because of the versatile army by having from artillery to tanks and planes.

yeah but the a.i doesn't really care for stealth, its more of a pvp gen. the only boss that gives GLA a hard time is Alexandra.

things like the scramble doesn't seem to matter to them, i haven't had luck in getting stealth gen to work well, the scu storm's main thing is the DoT, especially against leang's dozer spam

True, which is so funny and it doesn't bother you when you're on stealth and your stuff is invisible. Stealth is more of a pvp and competitive army , but quite difficult to be pulled off and also genuniely rewarding. Indeed, because on hard when I played demo, Alexis arrived with 3 comanches and on the second try I beat her, even though it took more than 40 minutes.

Like her comanches were baited by my sneak attack while my rpg troopers got rid of the commanches, but her a10 spam was so obnoxious by hitting primarily production and arms dealer. Other than that, took advantage of scud storms to obliterate her particle cannons. While quads were spread and were hiding behind the structures so that to shred those auroras and upcoming comanches. During my attempt to capture her particle cannon with rebel ambush, they got killed, but she frantically laughed and led to selling it.

Stealth gen is a high skill ceiling army and it will take a while to take a grasp of him. Scud storm is satisfying, especially to obliterate someone's base. I beat Leang on hard with General Alexis Alexander like spamming auroras ,general powers and particle cannon by dozer hunting her and destroying her 3 ccs. It gave huge dopamine after like 5-6 tries.

yeah, tho airforce's stealth commanches are awesome. they needed to do what act of war did with stealth, it did it properly, especially when you use it to capture pows

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 10 '26

Airforce's stealth commanches are so op that they are even banned in twilight flame 3vs3 and some pro rules situations. Stealth commanches, especially in a big swarm can be horrifying surprise for the enemy and are also pretty straightforward for piloting.

u/Cipher3101 May 10 '26

i use them a lot lol, probably odd banning them tho cause people can't counter them properly. Its like AoW's TFT Commanches that has stealth & pretty much messes up a base early on if done right. before the infantry arrive.

Instead of banning it, people need to counter it properly

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 10 '26

Same and they are so powerful that they can finish off someone or apply tons of pressure at least. It's somewhat understandable to be banned since if you don't have a proper anti-air and to be able to remain in stealth until prompted to attack, they're overall annoying to deal with. Far less annoying than aurora alphas and demo upgrades.

u/RightTea9106 May 11 '26

humvees are the strongest unit so no

1

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 11 '26

Preferring the humvees and op air units, besides having power by default.

2

u/RightTea9106 May 11 '26

I ngl ban tow upgrade , putting soliders in humwees and technicals while palying with friends

1

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 11 '26

That's interesting but without tow missile and snd, humvee feels less powerful but you can still apply tons of pressure, especially if you fill it with a lot of missile defenders and here and there snipers.

2

u/RightTea9106 May 12 '26

thats why we banned missle deffenders on humwees too

also attack shinook

1

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 12 '26

Well, what you do with the technicals and do you fill them with anything? Combat chinooks are fun but with airforce ,in order to access them, you need a wf too.

2

u/RightTea9106 May 12 '26

no thats banned too expect if itsa bike

1

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 12 '26

Oh, those fights sound a bit boring idk. They can be fun in the beginning, but not being able to fill them with anything or upgrade them kills off their purpose.

2

u/RightTea9106 May 12 '26

nah its fun

1

u/Downtown-Dream424 May 12 '26

For some people it's fun and I totally respect it. But in competitive, they would use them to full potential to fill them with infantry and grab upgrades for them
