- CO: Sensei
- Opponent: Adder
- Map: Sensei's Return
- Rank: S
- Difficulty: ***
- Weather: Fog of War
Walkthrough
- 1Begin by producing Infantry units. Send one Infantry north to capture the base and airport on the peninsula.
- 2Dispatch other Infantries west to capture the cities in that region. Consider building a T-Copter to support their movement.
- 3Once sufficient bases are captured, focus on producing a large number of Battle Copters, as they are Sensei's specialty.
- 4Deploy a few Tanks to each flank to counter enemy Anti-Air units.
- 5Position your Anti-Air units strategically, either on the peninsula or in the west, to protect your forces.
- 6If your advance in the west is slowed down by the three cities, build an Artillery unit to speed up the capture process.
- 7Warning: Adder will construct a Missile unit and conceal it in a forest near his Headquarters (HQ) around day 10-12.
- 8Prioritize locating and destroying this Missile as soon as possible. You will need at least two Copters: one for reconnaissance to find the Missile and another to destroy it.
- 9The reefs on the map are considered safe zones.
- 10An alternative strategy to capturing the HQ is to block Adder's bases and eliminate all his units.
Tips
- Battle Copters are Sensei's specialty and highly effective on this map.
- Tanks are crucial for dealing with enemy Anti-Air units.
- Artillery can significantly speed up captures in built-up areas like the western city cluster.
- Be vigilant for Adder's hidden Missile unit between days 10-12.
- Consider focusing on unit elimination rather than direct HQ capture for a different victory condition.
