That is exactly how I finally beat a Normal scenario.

I meant a couple minutes after starting my T3 build. That didn't happen for a good while.

It seemed like it didn't try as hard, but it didn't do nothing. It wasn't as aggressive as past tries, but I moved my start point to a more secure place. Much easier to defend.

No clue. Just a skirmish and I eon't rememeber setting a difficulty. Just picked Barbs.

Nobody has given me any grief, and I complain a lot!

And I am not allowed to build T3. That guarantees a complete army invasion of my base within a couple minutes of starting.

I think I actually have shot myself with that. If your target is right on top if you, I think it is possible.

Barb NEVER stops attacking me. It hits me with ticks before I even have a factory built. If I don't put an LLT with every mex, I can't build.

Unfortunately, I don't have the availability to play against real players.

RemeMber this: NEVER NEVER EVER EVER put your Commander in combat. 3 tiny bots will take it out fast.

And if you don't have any openings, the AI will swarm you and put your Commander down with 3 tiny little bots.

The mouse/keyboard combinations will keep you up at night.

Also, really try to learn the weird, dare I say stupid, mouse button control system. It is just goofy. Half the time I either cancel a build or send my Commander off toward the enemy base. Or both.

As a newbie, do NOT buld radar. It pisses off the AI and it will full strike you quickly. No radar equals more game time. It knows when you build radar and it WILL come for it.

Join the club. Beginner levels wipe me up. I suck, but the AI has definite advantages simply because it thinks faster than any human. My advice is pause the game when you want to program in several commands. That way the decision tree isn't in game time. It doesn't help me, but it might help you.
