I’d strangle the monitor if I could:

Normally I would tell you something good about the gameplay before the bad but this is so severe I have to do it the other way around. Ok here’s the problem, the units in this game have NO I.Q. at all, none, the A.I. programmer should be shot.

Now as you should know by now, I play alot of RTS games (well, all of them really) and never have I come across such stupid units. Quick example, I have three tanks, two in front of the third, I tell the third tank to drive in front of the front two. He proceeds to drive forwards and bumps into one of the tanks and stops, he then turns 90 degrees to the left, drives forward a bit, then turns 90 degrees to the right and bumps into the other tank.

Now what do you think happens next, does the other tank move, does he drive around it, nope he turns the other way until he drives into the back of the first tank, and then repeats what he just did. Now that is dumb, and to add insult to injury, imagine what will happen when it comes to the famous bridge problem, oh God no. Beyond the A.I problem (the severe lack of it) other problems include the time it takes to actually complete a level, and the stupid absence of cash.
