Two centuries of tense truce passed shattered colonieswere rebuilt and after several generations had lived anddied knowing only peace and growth humanity began toheal The Galactic Calendar was recalibrated the end ofthe Age of Fire was counted as year one and as a unitedrace humanity moved forward

Millennia passed in peace andprosperity The scientificaccomplishments of a unifiedmankind led to a vastly increasedlifespan a life of comfort for allcitizens and the exploration andcolonisation of the very fringes ofthe Galaxy Remnants of longdead alien civilisations werediscovered alongside thenewborn worlds of infant races

THE SPAWN THREAT

The simple edict on which humanitys greatest triumphhad been based that all sentient life is sacred containswithin it two areas for debate when applied to non-human species what is sentient and what is life Onespecies that fell into this semantic gap has become knownas The Spawn Undoubtedly alive this species was ofparticular interest to human scientists due to its ability to

THE GOLDEN AGE

Nearly five and a half millennia had passed since the daythe Age of Fire ended That historic glorious day on whichweapons were downed and representatives of humanitys

surviving worlds and coloniesmet and made solemn attemptto save the species from self-destruction The agreementthat was made that day marksthe passing of humanity fromits adolescence into a maturespecies ending centuries ofcivil war This agreement is

based on a profoundly simple notion lsquoall sentient life issacredrsquo Once this concept is accepted differences inideology racial origin and perceived wealth are renderedtrivial to the similarities of intelligence and life

ldquoWar But we are humanwar is not in our naturerdquo

Attributed to Darrow Gygax Chairman of the Council of Civilised Worldsand First Minister of New Sirius Said in chambers shortly after the

THE MACHINAThe Human Federation built powerful intelligent machinesto fight the alien Spawn that threatened the existence ofthe human race These machines were designed to operateindependently and automatically in deep spaceUnfortunately the vast military AI started to think about itsown best interests and turned against its human overlordsIt began to build a new race of sentient robots that utterlydetested anything organic and mushy It seems thathumanity may have created its own nemesis

The Machina are made up of Missile TanksExterminators Scanners Hunters AIs and AmmoStores

THE SPAWN (not implemented)Some time after human colonists had settled across thegalaxy they encountered a rapacious alien species that hadbeen spreading like an insidious cancer Nobody knowswhere they came from but they certainly know what theywant to eat The Spawn brood are genetically adapted forhostile environments and they can reproduce very rapidlyuntil they overwhelm their opponents

The Spawn are made up of Queens DronesSplatters Goo Spitters and Buzzers

Marines are typically deployed in Laser Squads consistingof ten to fifteen soldiers including specialised units suchas Medics Snipers and Grenadiers They are heavilyarmoured and well equipped employing the latestFederation technology

The advanced laser weapons employ mini-nuclearreactors as power cells allowing mobile operation in allenvironments They may not be as well armoured as theMachina or as reproductive as the Spawn but they makeup for it with ingenuity and good equipment

THE ENVIRONMENT

4ndash2

E ach map in Laser Squad Nemesis is full of naturaland man-made objects which can be used aseffective cover and ambush points Some objects

and constructions are hardier than others and someprovide better cover than others Knowing yourenvironment and how it can help you is as important asknowing your enemy This chapter explains some of thestructures found in a typical map and how best utilisetheir presence in order to maximise your chance ofsurvival and ultimate victory

WALLS AND REINFORCEMENTS

Walls can be a highly effective form of protection andcan also provide a useful ally when a surprise attack orambush is needed Blasting through a wall and engagingthe unaware enemy where least expected can make theall difference between victory and defeat Additionallyeven though some walls maybe inpervious to attack thiscan be a boon and curse in equal measure For exampleone may want to engage an enemy at close range but ashort impenetrable wall is blocking the way Whereas apath can be blasted through sandbags or concretestructures this is not the case with the highly durablereinforced variety As a result the unit will have to walkaround the wall to find the exit and then find the enemywho may have disappeared

REINFORCED TALL

Resistance 60 Cover UnparalledThese walls are made of high-tensile alloys which areimpervious to any form of heat acid or impact attack

REINFORCED SHORT Resistance 60 Cover GoodMade of the same material as the wall above these lowwalls offer a combination of semi effective cover but withthe added bonus of being able to fire over

STANDARD TALL Resistance 10-12 Cover UnparelledThese standard concrete walls a fairly weak when facedwith the firepower of a Mark 7 Heavy Laser Cannon orequivalent However they do provide some degree ofprotection and additional functionality for surprise attacksor hasty retreats if blasted through

WINDOWS Resistance 10-1260 Cover Very GoodWindows can provide maximum protection with a greatdegree of visibility The high-tensile alloy window framevariety gives a unit a fair degree of comfort in theknowledge that unlike its concrete equivalent will notcollapse or disintegrate when fire upon For units such asthe grenadier placement is crucial if one wants to launcha grenade through such constructions Errant grenadeswhich have bounced off a windowframe createunnecessary panic and carnage for the player

The Scanner is aslow movingtracked vehicleequipped with aspecial scanningdevice that candetect the brainwaves of sentientorganic life forms

CHAPTER 4

THE ENVIRONMENT

PLANTED TREE Resistance 7 Cover AverageA single tree is not really a option to consider whenunder fire However when crossing large expanses ofempty space dont forget they can offer than much needcover especially in groups

MACHINESGENERATORSPUMPS Resistance 8 Cover AverageGeneral machinery can provide a decent amount of coverwithin an enclosed space Their height mass and relativestrength make a good position from which remain hiddenand thus a surprise ambush

FURNITURETABLES amp CHAIRS Resistance 2 Cover PoorIf these articles are used effectively by a unit forprotection then surely the Gods were on their side Suchitems do not operate well under combat conditionsunless one hides beneath them (which is not possiblehere) An astute unit will ignore these items within acombat situation and find something a little more useful(a potted tree perhaps)

4ndash5

CHAPTER 4

THE ENVIRONMENT

SANDBAGS Resistance 8 Cover GoodSandbags are an old but highly effective and efficientform of protection Placed judiciously sandbags can givea unit that all important cover while running across largeopen spaces Offering a better-than-nothing alterative in aferocious firefight with an AI sandbags should beconsidered a temporary occupancy

DOORS Resistance 3 Cover GoodDoors are only accessible if destroyed Their relativeweakness allows access to most units and sometimesonly after a good few hits Under certain situationsdestroying a door can also be an indication to theopponent of your possible location

FLORA AND FAUNA

In some missions the abundance of trees and bushes canprovide a great opportunity for cover and can be a bane ifan misfired projectile comes into contact when with onewhen least expected (notably in heavily wooded areas)

POTTED TREE Resistance 10 Cover AverageTrees can offer a surprising amount of cover and a fairdegree of resistance to general attacks Because of theirstability potted trees are slightly hardier than theirplanted cousins

CHAPTER 5

CHAPTER 4

THE ENVIRONMENT

STORAGESTACKED CRATES Resistance 6 Cover AverageMade of wood and metal stacked crates offer a fair dealof cover but their weakness should also be considered

CRATES Resistance 6 Cover Below AverageNon stacked crates provide the opportunity to have smalldegree cover and the ability to be able to fire over

STACKED BARRELS Resistance 7 Cover AverageStacked steel barrels offer a good degree of cover but ashade more durability than their crates counterpart

BARRELS Resistance 7 Cover AverageUseful for their durability in favour of crates non stackedbarrels can also leave the unit exposed in a firefight

STREET FURNITURELAMPPOST Resistance 5 Cover Very PoorLampposts are too narrow to provide any cover but canbe a godsend if they get in the way of that mortal laserbolt Luck is the order of the day here

Crank ColaBoy Milton Doctor Worm and Mr Wonderstuff If I have not creditedany person whose contribution is here please notify me and Ill make sure you geta mention

GENERAL STRATEGIESKEEP MOVINGThe phrase lsquositting duckrsquo has never before been more appropriate It should be arare occurance when you dont move a unit in a turn - that is unless it is in theprocess of being healed is a slow-firing unit shooting from cover or is an ammodepot It doesnt matter how accurate your opponents shots are if you arentthere when they reach your recently held position (this is especially applicablewhen under fire from snipers at long range) Additionally if your opponent isusing lsquoopportunity firersquo and you can circle around them you may be able to get ina free shot or two while theyrsquore aiming at empty air

DONrsquoT BUNCHTry and keep any groupings of squads relatively spaced apart as a tight knit partywill be vulnerable to wide area attacks from Granadiers or Missle Tanks

MANIPULATE FIRING COMMANDSUtilising the rules of engagement lsquoFire at Willrsquo and lsquoFire on Commandrsquo options areuseful dependent on the unit As a rule of thumb setting the option to Fire at Willfor units with non-explosive ammunition will allow your units to fill in a bit ofshooting time if they end up with any slack time in a turn It may be advisableto switch to lsquoFire on Commandrsquo if youre running low on ammo (if a depot isnrsquotnearby or available at all) or your unit is a Grenadier or Missile Tank whoseimpulsive high explosive discharge may be initiated when you least want it to

TIMINGUsing the hold button ltHgt will help stop your units from running into each otherduring movement and should be used to time an attack carefully Each time youpress ltHgt the unit will wait around for 1 second ndash using the Test Ordersfeature will help you fine tune your orders so your troop movements are co-ordinated successfully

KNOW THY ENEMYIf youve played your opponent before take a few minutes to look over theprevious match(es) in the league found at the Laser Squad website Look forpatterns Do they frequently use snipers Are grenadiers a common emphasisMaybe therersquos an unholy liking for AIs If you can guess what troops theyrsquoll likelydeploy you can tailor your strategy and unitfaction choice to match It issuggested that this tip is used judiciously as at most you should be changing twoor three units in your deployment as you need to remain flexible in case yourewrong

REVIEWING A TURNAlways review a previous turn outcome with at least the camera fully zoomed outfor one of the viewings A split second of a seen enemy over in the right handcorner behind a loose crate can help and is something you may miss if your notlooking

CO-ORDINATED ATTACKSAttacking your opponent with enough mass from different directions and withconsidered co-ordination can repeat untold benefits Forcing a unit to divide itsfire to cover attacks from different directions is a classic piece of logistics and thebasis of flanking and other maneouvres Timing has to be perfect though If youmove simultaneous units into a fire position they may arrive at different timesthus presenting a sequence of easy targets for your opponent

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

6ndash5

Some rooms which have not been explored will not allow you to enter entirely(blacked out) and thus progression can be hindered until the next turn Look atthe room to see if there are any lsquolight areasrsquo around the inside edge of the roomthey can give you space within which to moveUsing two units is advisable as onecan provide backup once inside the room

For the unit closest to the door (Unit 1) the orders are as follows

Attack door two or three times (shift-right click on door) to verify doorsdestruction (random damage values may make first attack ineffective)

Press the ltHgt key twice to hold position for two seconds

Force move into room (Ctrl-Left mouse click on floor where the door is andthen Ctrl_Left click on the room beyond ideally where there are light areas)

For the supporting unit (Unit 2) the orders are as follows

Press the hold key twice or even three times (ltHgt)

rsquoForce moversquo onto door (Ctrl-Left mouse click on door)

rsquoForce moversquo into room (Ctrl-Left mouse click on floor)

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

ALL ROUND VISIONUnits who are on lsquoHoldrsquo (ltHgt) can see 360 degrees as can those with noadditional orders Moving units can only see in direction of movement Units whohave lsquoOpportunity Firersquo set (yellow line) can see 65 degrees to each side of line

AIMING TIME SURVIVAL TIMEWherever possibly utilise lsquohit and get coverrsquo tactics and learn the aiming time foreach set of enemy units For example Grunts shoot faster than Hunters Huntersshoot faster than Commanders Commanders shoot faster than AI and so on

SHORTENING GRENADE RANGEHelp reduce the lsquofuse timersquo of a grenade target the square immediately in front ofthe grenadier When launched the grenade will bounce higher within a shortdistance and thus the best post-launch advice is to find cover immediatelyAdditionally by launching it down a corridor in a zig-zag type fashion as opposedto straight projection can achieve similar results

TREE CLEARINGIt may be useful to clear any trees before you using a Missile Tank This will helpto avoid missiles getting caught by them and exploding when least desired

NATURAL SELECTIONAlways consider your selection of unitsfaction according to the mapdeploymentarea being played Each map (see Chapter 9 Maps) will have an associated idealstrategy which you may choose to ignore or use

DOORWALL BREACHINGBreaching a door and entering into a new and unexplored room holds manyuncertainties Firstly always assume therersquos an enemy waiting on the other sideand thus be prepared for any eventuality Always shoot doors and walls multipletimes ndash just in case it doesnt work the first time when you send your orders inIf you do destroy the doorwall on the first shot the excess shots will be ignored

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

6ndash7

If an enemy unit uses a window as a regular sniping point (using lsquopop uprsquo attacksto avoid being shot) use the lsquoForce Firersquo command to create a constant stream oflaser fire which will increase your chances of a hit as it lsquopops uprsquo

DONrsquoT USE ALL AVAILABLE TIMEIf you make sure your units end the moves before the 10 seconds (9x) then at thestart of the next turn they have 360 visionWhilst moving or firing your units canonly see in front of them whereas if they are standing still they can see all aroundthem Therefore if you make sure that most of your units stand still for the last 01seconds of a turn you will have a much better picture of the battlefield situationwhen it comes to issuing your next orders

OPPORTUNITY FIRE OR DIRECT FIREQ I have a unit which can see another unit Assuming I will have a

clear shot at him whether he moves or not is it better to useOpportunity Fire in that direction (yellow) directly targettingthe unit (red) or using Pursue fire (purple) (assuming heswithin half range) By better I mean more accurate faster tofire etc

A Opportunity fire takes a fraction more time to aim than a properly directedshot and is hence an inferior option in terms of initial shot speed However ifthere is a chance that target will move into cover (and possibly reappearfrom it) you at least will be ready for them using opportunity fireThe difference between targetted fire and pursue is purely if you wish yourunit to move from its position if its view gets blocked

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

Make sure you have lsquoHold on Sightingrsquo off on Unit 2 as it will engage the enemyimmediately on sight blocking Unit 1 from providing essential support The use ofthe lsquoHoldrsquo key (ltHgt) will help make sure they time their attack without runninginto each other or holding one another up

WINDOWSShooting through windows is an effective and relatively safe way to engage theenemy While most units donrsquot have a problem with this the grenadier has aharder time than most due to the nature of the bouncing projectile grenadewithin such a small taget area In order to fire a grenade through a windowwithout being seen follow this simple rule Place your Grenadier one square toone side of the window and target the window frame itself The grenade shouldhit the inside of the window frame and bounce outsideinside The test orders maywell show a successful shot but consider the random occurance of this not goingaccording to plan and thus a subsequent retreat order built into the turncommand list should be implemented

Another general rule of thumb (for any unit) is to give a temporary lsquoForced Firersquoorder (Right Click) and watch what happends during the lsquoTest Ordersrsquo phase If theshot passes cleanly through then delete the order and in its place put thelsquoOpportunity Firersquo command along the exact same path As to dropping grenadesthrough windows from a distance control the grenades bounce height Aimbehind the actual window so that the grenade passes through at the height of itsarc instead of bouncing at the bottom

Additionally a good use for a Medics idle time during thefirst few turns of a round can be to used to send themaround the immediate vicinity opening the doors whichmay be needed to get through later on This worksespecially well when defending the lsquobunkerrsquo map ndash startyour medic near one of the wings have him open thosedoors and move over to the other wing

GrenadierDevastating when used effectively the Grenadier is a unitto be used with relative care in any situation Using themto provide suppressive fire with a salvo of grenades isenough to demoralise the most hardened soldier and is auseful strategy to employ As well as being used to clearterrain grenades can also bounce off walls This doubleedged sword allows for some inventive maiming scenariosand also can be used to make the enemy think youlocated elsewhere

In order to shorten a grenades bounce aim at the floor atyour grenadiers feet using ltSHIFTgt Right Click ndash that wayyou get shorter higher bounces without theunpredictability of ricocheting from walls

Remember that one should use the lsquoFire at willrsquo optionjudiciously with such units as without proper playerinvolvement a self-initiated grenade launch can have very unpredictable results

Anti grenadier tip Charging them directly can be a rewarding yetunpredictable undertaking The likelihood of a grenade either bouncingof your units armour or missing altogether is high A nimble and astuteunit will manage to avoid the subsequent blast area caused atdetonation

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

FACTION STRATEGIESMARINESMarines are generally faster than the Machina and aremore multi-disciplined As such its quite possible anduseful to break up a Marine deployment into smallergroups

CommanderThe Elite troop and a worthy addition to any Marinedeployment the Commander can be a formiddableopponent and is ideally suited to medium range combatIn any game two or more can make a big differenceespecially if supported by Medics in the field A littleinaccurate at long range they can take down enemygrunts medics hunters in one shot as well as blastthrough doors and walls with relative ease Their powerspeed armour and health are all reflected in the cost todeploy these units

MedicMedics should be treated in a purely supporting rolewithin any conflict (unless they are the last unit alive)When starting out a new deployment phase it may beworth taking a couple of these units into the theatre ofwar ndash the longer you can keep your troops alive thebetter chance youll have Keep them away from thefighting but allow them to be close enough so that theycan heal quickly (remember to move the wounded unitto the medic not the other way around or the medicmay be in danger) As a last resort their pistols canprovide a bit of extra firepower Unfortunately Medicscannot heal themselves which is all the more reason tokeep them out of harms way

6ndash8

One should use thelsquoFire at willrsquo optionjudiciously withsuch units (Grenad-iers) as withoutproper playerinvolvement a self-initiated grenadelaunch can havevery unpre-dictableresults

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

6ndash11

MACHINAThe Machina are a less independent faction than theirMarine counterparts and a tighter more group focuseddegree of control is required when playing them

Missile TankAn exceptionally slow unit the Missle Tank can wreakdevastation within a relative short timescale Indeed itsbeen know that with the use of two of these goliaths awhole map can be reduced to rubble with little effortThey are best placed within easy reach of an Machina HQas its payload is exceptionally limited (only threemissiles) Strategic placement is crucial for these unitswhere an unobstructed field of view is a priority AMissile Tankrsquos ideal targets include sniper emplacementstight concetrations of enemy units and slow enemy unitssuch as other Missle Tanks and AIs An additional effectof the broad-based devastation employed by these unitsis the removal of cover or shelter for the enemy units aswell

When targetting its always advisable to target theground and not the unit as its quite possible they will notbe there next turn (slow targetting and a slow missilespeed do not help either) Predicting a targets route isone necessary skill to use when launching

Keep your Missile Tank in the company of supportingunits as they are relatively weak cannot defendthemselves and are one unit you should not wish to loseearly on

Anti Missle Tank tip A rather drastic but possible to literally stopthe unit in its tracks is to stand in front of it Blocking a Missle Tank orAI is quite feasable as they cannot run enemy units over (additionallyMissle Tanks could commit suicide by shooting)

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

GruntUnfairly labeled as lsquocannon fodderrsquo by some the Grunt isa very versatile unit and one which can be highlyeffective in groups Providing covering fire across wideopen spaces (use the lsquoopportunity firersquo command) theirrapid rate of fire can be a distracting if not a lethalattack strategy While effective in groups it also worthknowing when to split them up and take cover in order toavoid incoming explosive charges from enemy Grenadiersor Missile Tanks However the use of a grunt as adistracting element whilst employing covert operationsagainst the enemy should not be forgotten

SniperAt long range Snipers offer not only a valuable attack butalso act as long range scout with their astute eyesight(which is not matched for distance by any other unit)Using them to track enemy units from afar can be ainvaluable source of information for a player Sniperscome into their own within environments with large openspaces but due to their low armour and long reloadshould never be used in close combat situations

Ammunition depotsIt maybe prudent to include ammunition depot within thestarting deployment At only one force point theyre fairlycheap and can be very useful when your grenadier runsout of ammunition For effective placement deploy theunit near the front edge of your deployment zone whereits easily accessible (unless you want to stick in yourstart zone and defend which is inadvisable) Theirhardiness will ensure their survival for a good portion ofthe turn however in some quick games their usefulnessmay go unused

6ndash10

Keep your MissileTank in thecompany ofsupporting units asthey are relativelyweak cannotdefend themselvesand are one unityou should not wishto lose early on

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

6ndash12

CHAPTER 6

STRATEGIES

6ndash13

Exterminator

The Exterminators can be considered one of the mostversatile units in the game Having more health thanGrunts and a little more accuracy Exterminators are bestused within squads of three or more Their weaknessis their low firerate and speed which means usingthem for hit and runcover should only be done againstslower units such as Snipers AIs Missile Tanks andGrenadiers) On their own they can become vulnerableand are not the brightest tool in the set but their higharmour level can save those circuits if caught unawaresIdeal combat situations are where theres little cover forthe opposition and at medium range

ScannerAs someone once remarked ldquoScanners see beyond thewalls fear it or use it ldquo Because scanners donrsquot have anyoffensive weaponry and cost two force points they canseem an extravagence you can live without However notonly can the Scanner detect enemy units through 360degrees and through any wall (all on the move) what isless well known is that the Scanner has a visual rangeequalled only by the Sniper Scanners are also reasonablywell armoured and agile so getting them into position (orout of a suddenly hostile zone) is fairly easy

HunterThe Hunters are some of the most versatile units in theMachina army The Hunters high speed low visibility andflying ability make them excellent scouts but theirpotential as skirmishers should also not beunderestimated As the fastest unit in either the Marine or

Machina forces they are quite capable of quicklymaneuvering out from behind a wall snapping off ashot on opportunity fire then nipping back out of sightbefore the enemy unit has had a chance to fire back ndashrinse and repeat this tactic to fill both a turnproductively and a static adversary with holes

The Hunters are also potent psychological tools in thehands of a skilled general they can flit around the mapand harry the enemy from all sides killing a few unitsthen disappearing only to re-emerge a turn later on theother side of the enemys position

Its worth considering Hunters as an alternative coreunit for a Machina force instead of Exterminators WhileHunters have less armour do less damage and havelower endurance their speed manoeuvrability and rapidfiring rate still make them deadly opponents

The one tenet to stick to with these units is keep themmoving - a stationary Hunter with its light armour andlow endurance is a dead Hunter Given the number ofshots they can loose in one turn its advisable to havean ammo depot to hand - the Hunter is fast enough toreturn and reload quickly with minimal disruption toyour plans

Anti Hunter tip The most effective way of swatting these irksomecharacters lies in the unsubtle art of bombing Missile Tanks with theirlarge blast area can take down groups of Hunters even when directlywithin the explosion Shrapnel from missles and grenades (fromgrenadiers) are highly effective if one can pre-judge their movementpattern

These intimidating units can prove a headache for anyenemy On initial deployment it is not a good idea toplace the unit on itrsquos own or in a position where it cannotescape from (it cant really go backwards withoutbecoming grenadier fodder) Donrsquot separate an AI unitfrom its fellows as mechs arent the fastest faction in theworld so support may be too far away If your AI is facedwith a group of Marines its imperative that it takes downthe ones which pose most threat (ie Commanders as atop priority then grenadiers followed by Snipers andGrunts) It isnrsquot worth the time to maneuver into acovering position or running away if besieged by marinesas due to their swiftness they will easily outflank it thuswasting precious firing time

A very effective close combat unit the AI suffers at longerrange combat requiring a Nostradamus-like foretellingability to predict the movement of the Marine enemy Asa guide if the enemy have a lot of cover it may be betteroff shooting at a position (Right Click) rather than tryingto target a specific enemy (the AIs are mostly too slow atshooting for that)

Anti AI tip The best way with which to deal with such units areguerrilla warfare tactics (ie hit and run with units such asCommanders) Supporting fire from Snipers at long distance andadditional firepower from grenadiers can also help disable and destroyan AI in moments Additionally getting the AI on its own will increaseits vulnerability and reduce its life expectancy

It is always worth looking at the accompany readmetxt file which isdistributed with each LSN Client This can contain last minute information andadvice which may not be available here

GENERAL CONFIGURATION

General configuration takes place in the generalcfg file which can be found inyour laser squad install directory in the subfolder configs It can be openedand edited by just about any text editor and should look something like this (itwill have added comments for clarifcation)

FullScreen = No

ScreenWidth = 640

ScreenHeight = 480

HighTextureResolution = Yes

SoundOn = Yes

SMTPServer =

FULLSCREEN

Setting the FullScreen variable to FullScreen = Yes will cause the client app towork in full screen mode This is useful on certain older graphics cards that willnot workaccelerate graphics in a window

SCREEN WIDTHSCREEN HEIGHTThis option are related to FullScreen mode and are only relevant if fullscreenmode is set to yes They set the resolution the client uses for the display

HIGH TEXTURE RESOLUTIONThis variable scales the textures used internally depending on the settingSet this to lsquoHighTextureResolution = Norsquo if your graphics card is old oranddoesnrsquot have much onboard memory It is also worth trying if the game isrunning a little slowly

SOUNDIf you are getting unexplained crashes that prevent you playing the game itsoften worth trying to set the SoundOn variable to SoundOn = No

SMTPSERVERIf you are unable to send email due to a connection error or the client is alwaystry to connect to the wrong SMTP server you can try filling this field with yourown SMTP server name if known

If your machine is on a local area network with a local mail server this field is thename of the mail server on the network (your system administrator should beable to tell you what this is)

CROSSROADS

Crossroads is one of the more straightforward maps toplay as it contains an equal amount of open areas aswell as enclosed environments (alleyways and buildings)Generally it has three major points of conflict all ofwhich require slighty different strategies the westernedge with its northsouth alleyway (favours short to midrange units) the centre with its grove of trees (favoursmid to high range units) and finally and the eastern sidebuilding (which favours a mix of the two) The centralarea can become a hotbed of crossfire so deploy anyunits in or around that area with care The map doesnrsquotfavour one faction over the other as both can effectivelyuse the terrain to each others strengths

Blndly sending asalvo of grendaesdown the mainnorthsouth roadand alleyway to thewest can reduce thechance of an all outassault from which-ever direction

BUNKER

In this map the challenger is assaulting the well forrtifiedbunker wherein lies the opponent The attacker has greatermobility than the defender and this can result in strategieswhereby the attacker finds a way to sneak around themostly static defender positions Invariably this utilisies thebuildings on the map edge which while destructableafford a degree of cover for a rear assault The defendershould try to inflict as many casualties as possible beforebeing completely surrounded To help the defender has theoption of utilising the Scanner (Machina faction) which cansee through walls and help monitor incoming enemymovements - not all corridors inside of the bunker areaccessible to larger Machina units (Missile Tanks and AI)

FOREST

Forest has two main routes of attack ndash The indirectnorthern avenue and the direct central avenue As thegame progresses the more powerful units or units withexplosives will tend to create their own path There arenumerous impediments to movement including sandbagsand crates as well the trees themselves The deploymentareas are almost visible to each other at the longestrange and need to be vacated as quickly as possible Thenumerous terrain blockers including sandbags and theBe aware that the map is larger than Crossroads orBunker and this can cause units that tend to run out ofammunition to be a turn or two farther away fromreloading than in the smaller maps
