King Worm Tip:
--------------
As soon as the final mission begins move the 
"Duplicator" in front of the king worm and 
duplicate a few sonic tank. Then move the sonic 
tanks away from the duplicater. Otherwise they 
will be hit by the super-kanon. Then take position 
before attack the king worm. Don't let the tanks 
stick together (because of the super-kanon). 
And after a few attack you can move on to the 
next game.

Infantry Defence - Atreides Only: 
---------------------------------
Atreides have to be one of the strongest defenders, 
with the Machine Gun Tower and the Missle Turret. It 
is simple to defend with simple Infantry, First find 
the entrance. If possible find the main one. Build 10 
Kindjal Units and 10 Snipers. Place 5 Kindjal and 5 
Snipers on either side of the entrance. Deploy the 
Kindjal and bingo, you've got the kindjal to take out 
tanks and the snipers to take out infantry. 

Sniper Offence: 
---------------
Atreides Only First off, build 6 snipers, If there are 
barrels around the builds of the base and such..thats all 
you'll need. If not, add 6 Mongooses and and 8 Bikes to 
the list. That should do fair, add stronger units as the 
diff. goes up. This should work when there are two entrances, 
bring the snipers around rear, and start picking off 
Infantry [ Or barrels ]. All their units should come after 
the snipers then fly the bikes into the middle of the base 
to take out defences and the units from behind. Then have 
the Mongooses paste the base. 

Creeper Tank - Atreides Only: 
-----------------------------
First build 5 Engineers and an APC, Pile the Engineers into 
the APC, park the APC infront of the opponent's base. Once 
it cloaks, creep it slowly an inch at a time, keeping it 
cloaked. Once the APC is deep enough without being seen, 
unload it and take over 5 buildings. Sell them, you'll get 
infantry and money. 

Infantry Offence - Counter - Ordos Only: 
----------------------------------------
A simple way to take out any offence of infantry, is just a 
few Mortor infantry, just deploy them at the top of the ramp. 
Out of ranges of the Kindjal and snipers. They'll get a height 
advantage and take them out in a few seconds. 

Infantry Offence/defence - Ordos Style: 
---------------------------------------
The same can be done with ordos, all you need is a mortors 
instead and The Freman Subhouse. The Freman warriors have 
same range as snipers and can cloak.. 

Infernal Offence - Harkonnan Only: 
----------------------------------
For a nice attack force from Harkonnan, not that a few tanks 
can't take out half an opponents force. First 4-10 Inkvine 
Tanks and about 25 Flame troopers. With the Inkvines fireing 
away, and the flamers igniteing the remaining waste from the 
Inkvine's attacks. Your sure that any Infantry will be ash 
and you'll be turning tanks into microwaves.. 

Overwhelming Forces - Ix Sub-House: 
-----------------------------------
With any House and the Ix Subhouse, Build a duplicator and 
one of your strongest units (Ordos:Deviator, 
0Harkonnan:Devisator, Atredies:Sonic Tank ). Build two Adv. 
Carryalls, and drop them near a base, On rock..I've made 
that mistake...Deploy the Duplicator, and simply duplicate 
the unit you brought with it, and just send the units in, 
not the real one..so you get a free supply of strong units 
that build in seconds. Another trick to use on the Ordos is 
to duplicate the enmies laser tanks..The duplicate laser 
tank will shoot the sheilds will refract and blow both of 
them up. You didnt pay for you tank so no shead tears. 
The Laser tank is also great to mass produce..as it is fast 
and will move away so you can make more.
