With more information on Zero Hour comming out by the minute, the C&C community is buzzing with activity.
For those that don't already know, IGN and Gamespot have already posted up some small previews. Click here for the IGN preview, and here for the Gamespot review.
Planet CnC- Jafar has written up a nice article called, "Generals Aircraft: Tactics for Their Use and Defense." Here is a snippet:
Aircraft appear to be one of the trickier units to master the use of in C&C Generals. This is because they will crumble to anti-aircraft fire and tend to be more expensive than tanks. Many players will not integrate aircraft into their battle plans and will often stick to a ground-based conflict. This may win games, but by doing so, they forego some of the most useful fire support in the game. A wave of Auroras or MiGs screaming in and saving the day for a outnumbered ground battalion is just one of many possible tactics, which I will cover more of my favorites here.
If you are interested in the use of aircraft, this may be a good read. I will also cover the defense against flyers, for all three sides. Keep in mind that these tactics are not guaranteed to be successful, and while these tactics work for me, they may not be as good for you.
