Tips & Tricks
It's recommended that you use a variety of units in your match. When you first load in, you will want to almost immediately build a resource base. Keep an eye on your resources as you'll need a specific amount for each unit you deploy.
After creating your first resource base and deploying a few units, it would be wise to create a second resource base to keep the resources generating at a steady pace.
You will have two other options other than building a resource base and those are extra units you can deploy. However, you will need a certain amount of resources to unlock them. After you choose to unlock them, it will take a minute or 2 before you can utilize them.
As of right now you can not unlock them at the same time. Use your keybinds to deploy these units quickly so you don't waste any time. The tutorial will guide you more on your specific keybinds.
You can choose to send all of your units to attack an enemy base, however in doing so you will leave your own base vulnerable. It would be wise to leave some units at your base to protect it and your resources.
To do this, use your mouse to click and drag the amount of units you wish to attack a specific area. Click on the area you wish for them to move to and have them sit there waiting for an attack. They should automatically fight back once an attack is initiated by the enemy.
