HERE ARE THE CHEATS AND TIPS FOR PLAYING TINY TROOPS

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF WARFARE.

1. Learn to co-ordinate your troops attack patterns early, by concentrating all of your firepower on one of the enemy troops at a time you will kill his troops off faster, effectively reducing his attack strength as his numbers are depleted. By reducing his numbers quickly, rather than having loads of one on one battles going on his troops will get far less shots in, safety in numbers is the key.

2. Try to arrange things so that all your troops engage the enemy at the same time, delivering one huge wave of destruction to knock out the enemies individual troops quickly, and so allowing them to get as few shots off at your troops as possible. Separate the individual troop types into separate groups and then send your slower troops on ahead of the faster units and use your timing to make sure that the backup arrives on time.

3. Waste the enemies grenades for him. move a single trooper or a small unit to within range of enemy grenadiers and use hit and run tactics against them, let your troops take a pot shot or two at them, wait until they throw their grenades and then quickly evacuate the area then start the cycle again until they have depleted their ammunition. With practice you can run circles around enemy grenadiers moving your troops a short distance every time a grenade is thrown to a position where your troops can carry on firing at the enemy almost uninterrupted. If there is a big battle going on, the easiest way to achieve this, is to use your Armageddon and retreat buttons to move your troops backwards and forwards.

4. Keep an eye on your troops during and after battles by clicking on them individually to check their energy bars, when they become too weak send them back to base for repairs, then try to get them to rejoin the others as quickly as possible, or leave them to guard the base if things are too hot on the front line. Better to have fighting fit troops than dead or crippled ones.

5. When the enemy has superior firepower, it can be better for you to take the battle nearer to your base by clicking on the retreat icon, when this happens, some of the enemies firepower will be absorbed by your base which is capable of taking a lot of damage, and this also allows you to send badly damaged troops in for repairs and get them back into the action quickly.

6. When your troops are firing at a target, to speed up their firing rate use the forced fire option , first click on an individual troop or box around a large group of them, then click on the attack icon (the clenched fist), then click on the target. Every time you do this your troops will fire another shot in addition to their usual attacks, so the faster you can do this, the faster your troops will fire.

7. Mines can be cleared by sending a fast unit such as a foot soldier towards it, and by using the two point click movement option (right mouse button) send him towards the mine and immediately back the way he came in a v shaped movement just before he comes into contact with the mine, this will ensure he escapes with the minimal amount of damage.

8. Don't forget that pillboxes near to enemy bases can be used to wipe out the base with devastating firepower.

9. Flame-throwers can be used to fire through walls and obstacles.

10. The converge icon can be very useful for getting troops out of trouble or to stop them from chasing enemy troops into dangerous places.

11. Remember, only normal footsoldiers can be used to take over pillboxes.

12. Using the repair icon is a quick way to send individual troops back to base without sounding a full-scale retreat.

13. Pillboxes will usually miss a fast moving target, though may hit other units that are following nearby.

14. By using the multi-click movement option (the right mouse button) you can make a troop run around a pillbox to find out which directions it can fire in, and so figure out which direction you should attack from.
