Yea....I don't think people are getting what i mean by what i mean when I say my planes are gonna support them. Like they CAN scout if I'm planing a attack, and in a battle I can call my fighters in to help out the army. The bombers are in case i need a wall taken out or a group of enemy units. Well I'm gonna try out this army a couple of times. Then I'm gonna try to make an army for the French that is unstopable. LOL like that will ever happen.

yea....thats what i was planning on doing with my citezens (building the AA, towers, and walls with them where ever i go). Also if the Rangers are getting whipped I'll call for the heavy stuff..... My citezens. LOL. Any way the Vickers MG is good when defeneding (entrenched). I like drawing out my enemy and then making him attack me ans the Vickers MG is pefect for denfending. But they are very expensive (especially when your trying to get some rangers out there at the same time) so I might cut them down to 5.

ok I have to tell ya'll about this game. It was like super cool. Ok I still kinda play noobish, so this was amazing, and I think it was cuz of how I made my armies, and how I produced them in the game. Ok it was 2 vs 2 on a plains map. Me and my ally were booming, and the other guys promised no rushes. I built up my city to where even if they did rush I was ready (I learned a long time ago not to trust people when they say that). I built towers every where and quickly got all the mines around my base. I then went to the lower middle of the map and started making another base cuz there was lots of gold mines there. I now had about 7 gold mines (with 6 on everyone) and 2 stone mines. I had my farms up and running with food coming in literally faster than I could spend it (5 graneries) and I had about 30 lumberjacks working. I then made my big miltary base (I have building all over my city, but my big military base is where 5 barracks, 5 siege facorties, and 4 tank factories are at) and made an army. Well by now my ally was being attacked, and being over run. I didn't have my army completed so I just sent over my airforce to help out some. He (was America) started to beat back the invading American armies (everyone was America but me) and I pulled out a squadren of my fighters and 1 squadren of bombers (I left 6 fighters and 4 bombers at his base). We by now my 1st army was made and I was already able to make another army. So I made another army. My ally was then attacked again and beat them back again. So far they hadn't really messed with me. I kept my armies back and just sent out some AT/AA Guns and MG-42 extras when the attacked me. They were focusing on my ally mainly. Well my ally was starting to lose his base and was soon surronded by the enemy. Every time his citezens tried to leave they were killed by Vickers MG's. I attacked them and he broke 12 citezens out. My made a base behind my 1st base, and I postioned an entire army around it so that he would survive. By now I had 3 armies and i had 35 fighters, and 15 bombers. I made a new army and decieded that I should attack the enemies base. About half way through making my army, the Ease Americans attacked my outer postions and I quickly sent out some panzers to take them out. I broke through one spot in the line and started to go around my base slaughtering Vickers MG's. It was really funny. Anyway they finally brought up some AT guns and Shermans and after damaging them pretty bad my panzers were destroyed. My other base was now being attacked, and I sent out 1st army to go save it. By now I have 5 Armies. They were called (this is by the hot keys I gave them) 1st Army, 2nd Army, 4 Army (3rd army had been torn up pretty bad by some battles and I just didn't replace it) 10th Army, and the best one 9th Army. 9th had all teh veteren units and had extras in everything. After 1st Army relieved my 2nd base, I moved it to the enemy's base and attacked. 1st Army was destroyed, but did enough damage to make it worth it. I quickly remade it at my base. I then cleared out and area and made some air bases close to my enemies bases. My ally was no help to me and was now asking me for resources. I told him to move back to his old base and that he needed to give me units for resources. He moved out and made some engineers and gave them to me. I quickly despersed them among my tanks and sent out all my armies but 1 (of the 6). I postioned them in Army Groups of 2 (armies) each along the length of the map. Army Group South, Army Group Centere, and Army Group North. I flew my planes into the middle of my enemies base and they were shot to hell but not many were destroyed. I then attacked the with 1st, 3rd, and 9th Armies and kept 2nd 4th and 10th in reserve. My enemy beat back my armies and started to chase them off (exept 9th Army who was splinting the 2 Americas in half in the center)I threw in my reserves and over took the North Americans, and then shifted everything down to the south. They were harder cuz my airfocre had only harrased them not heavily attacked them. Their army was still huge and being made (not as big as mine) and he was way better at deploying troops in defensive postions (he knew his land better). So now all my armies were at half strenght exept 9th Army. I pulled all me armys back and fromed a cirlce around his base so that anything that tried to escape couldn't. I replenished 9th Army with the few units it needed, and gave it some more, then deployed it to attack. I know I could just have sent in all my armies at once and over run him, but i wanted to have to battle for the victory. I didn't send in any air units unless he tried to attack me with his. Me and him had an awsome battle. Flanking each other, luring each otehr into ambushed, attacking each others rear, surronding each other. It was like lots of fun. I over took him and won but i just thought it was cool that i pretty much took on 2 guys by myself and won.
