Build Orders ​

A build order is your opening sequence of structures and units. The right build gives you an economic or military advantage.

Standard Economic Opening ​

Safe opener that focuses on economy first.

  1. Power Plant (300)
  2. Power Plant (300)
  3. Refinery (2000) → Free Harvester
  4. Barracks (500)
  5. Refinery (2000) → 2nd Harvester
  6. War Factory (2000)
  7. Harvester (1400)

Total: ~8500 credits

Why it works: Two refineries with 3 harvesters gives steady income. Barracks unlocks defenses and War Factory.

Rush Build ​

Aggressive opener to pressure enemy early.

  1. Power Plant (300)
  2. Barracks (500)
  3. Refinery (2000)
  4. 5-6 Riflemen (500-600)
  5. War Factory (2000)
  6. Light Tanks (800 each)

Total: ~6000 credits before tanks

When to use: Against greedy economic openers. Scout first!

Risk: If the rush fails, you're behind economically.

  7. Mammoth Tank (2500)

Total: ~9100 credits to first Mammoth
