Getting Started in Engagement and Multiplayer Mode

With practice, you’ll soon figure out the best way to defeat opponents in the

Engagement and Multiplayer modes. Here are some helpful tips to get you started:

1. Build a Refinery – For reliable, steady cash flow, build a Refinery close to an

(existing) Oil Derrick. Build two additional Tankers to increase oil extraction

speed.

2. Build a Barracks – Recruit some ground units to scout the surroundings and

protect your base.

3. Build Defense or Offense – Make the important early decision to either attack

opponents immediately with light troops or to first build a strong defense to

protect against a rapid enemy attack.

4. Cash or Conquest – Decide whether to capture additional oil wells or assault

an opponent.

Continue Campaign: Load the last Autosaved game.

Cancel: Return to the Main Menu.

Changes in difficulty level only affect the currently active player profile.
