I'm getting no where fast. I rarely if ever, play as the GLA. I've most always played as the US and at times, China factions, Now I want to master playing as the GLA so I need some tips. Any help will do. I need help with

leveling up -- what's the best things to choose when you get promoted?

repairing vehicles -- the US has drones that do this. I play as GLA vs GLA and see the enemy's vehicles with lttle wrenches hovering over them. Is there a vehicle to travel with your vehicles to help keep them healthy?

revealing the enemy base -- the US has fighters you can sacrifice to see into a base. What does the GLA have?

how to use jarel -- how do you use this guy?

saboteurs -- I don't know how to use them either.

Is there a manual for Zero hour online? I have lost my little booklet so I don't have a manual. If I can get my hands on this, it would be helpful, but I'd also like a few tips. The AI uses all the units when you play on hard, but I don't know how to use some of the units and I don't think I can think as fast as the AI does even if I had a manual, so any tips would be helpful.

Please help if you can. I'm having fun playing as the GLA, but it would be more fun if I knew what the heck I was doing. Thanks!

Have you tried playing as the GLA for 5 minutes, and reading their upgrades? It would solve a lot of your issues...
If you need help, post in the forum. You'll get help a lot faster than if you send me a PM.

I reject all buddy requests. I don't think 'buddy' needs to be made official. It's not like you're marrying me.

Play your own way.
Dont ask other people to tell you how to play because 1: you would waste time checking and remembering other peoples strategy and 2: you might feel cheated of victory when you do win because it wasn't really you playing.

Well i'll suggest you put on one of them fingerless gloves and a sweatband; as you'll be working Overtime Boy! Mainly prepare to build over 300% more units! and place ALL your main strategy in the Quad Cannon, (you know i'm lol'ing at cha)...

In any case open a stomp game select your usual army and train at this NEW pace you've quizzed yourself at,,

Possible losing scenarios and counter actions:
1) Map control, Opponents dominating the map! Early game speedy reconnaissance with quick air closure available using light ground with air support...
2) Over building i.e Tortoise shell dilemma.. Pick a side of your opponent's defence send in A14's (use as cover) that brief moment all defences are aimed&firing at them, then combined air&ground forces and move in , (as Generals tanks are quite weak have auxiliary forces on stand by) also keep refreshing drones...
3) All supered up, opponents gone all sadam on you,,, call it unfair and quit.. Huh
The EA version kind of re-enforced the weaker/wronger factions Irked so not to upset their Fan< (haven't found a visible counter action for this without explorer options 1 and 2 here)....

Finally, changing your army and continuing to lose will unbalance your enthusiasm in the game, just put it down and build something on worldbuilder, will investigate the online balance issue and set the record straight, Custom Bentley OUTSIDE their offices style!

Closing note: as you can see there are a ton of things to do for an action packed and gripping game, That requires time, patience and an understanding in GAMING! can't rush it!

Gee thanks! You're on your own too!

Yes, I've managed to win playing as GLA, but still can't see any reason to train their sniper. He's as weak as they come! I can't get the saboteurs to do anything because they're spotted so easily. AMGintuition mentions sending your troops out with air support, but the GLA has no air support!
I've figgered out most of it. I'll figure out the rest of it too. And I WON'T supply you with maps that I've spent over 40 hours on that play very well and look beautiful! Why the *censored* should I? You aren't deserving so I'll keep 'em to myself.

RETARDS!

Can't speak for everyone, but I don't care at all.

My advice is this: actually try before you ask for help. It's blatantly obvious that you haven't read through the GLA upgrades, or you would know how their vehicles gain auto-repair. Why should we help you when you won't even help yourself?

Saboteurs-disable buildings just avoid things that can detect stealth

Jarmen Kell-his a sniper what else do you think?He aims infantry not tanks and vehicles except when you use snipe vehicle crew(abilty)and his name is not jarel.......

Junk Repair-upgrade it at black market and your vehicles are auto reparing yay!

Radar Van-when you have built a radar van from the arms dealer upgrade the radar scan from the black market then use the ability just like spy satelite

Generals Promotion-depends on what kind of enemies are you faceing and your playstyle are you defensive or offensive
