ARm Level 1 Vehicles

Ahh.... Here we go, the ever important vehicle plant:

Con. Vehicle: An AWESOME unit, high speed, high nanolathe, its just better than the Con. bot.

i will make about 5 of these early game to go out and cap metal deposits and make Missile towers. very versatile i highly recommend using this as your primary con unit.*****

JEFFEY: Arm scout vehicle. there is only one way to put this: They stink. Please, make peepers instead, they are faster and have radar, but a jeffey just goes around and gets shot full of holes. However, there is one, and ONLY one, good reason to use these guys, when FLASH dashing your enemy, make a few of these cheap units to make it seem like u have more FLASHES on Radar. Fear can be a better weapon than a nuke. As long as your enemy is going: What if?!?!? then u have an advantage. Counter with anything.**

FLASH: ARM "fast assault tank" It's basically like Chris Taylor took a PEEWEE, but it in a tank body, put a little more power to it's EMGs and, Made it faster, gave it heavier armor, and then asked God to bless it to be Awesome. The FLASH is arguably the best unit in TA, and the closest thing to perfect that man has ever made. Some players say that these are "cheap" units and are bad because they don't allow for late game battles because the player who has them first wins. Basically the best way to use flashes are to early game rush someone, plow through their base, surround their commander, and then inflict enough damage to cause the commander to have a severe case of the "Death." This is a catastrophic sickness that makes the commander explode with a force more powerful than a Nuclear Bomb. Also, flashes can be used late game, but typically against other tanks rather than infantry, (the Peewee trick vs. Heavy tanks can also be used with flashes). AWESOME unit, thank you Chris!!!! make as many flashes as it seems fit. counter with: Cans, gunships, and Flashes and samsons of your own. *****

Podger: ARM mine layer. Slow, useless, dumb, and it's mines just take up space on the unit limit. Do not make*

Stumpy: Medium TAnk. This is a unit without a place, it's cannon powerful, but it misses all of the time, it lives in it's little brother's shadow, only good for base busting.***

SAMSON: The arm missile vehicle. Fun to use and easy to make, shoots down aircraft, and kills land units easily when used en mass. do not use by itself though, all ways make many of them, good for gaining large amounts of territory. Good unit. Make lots of these. counter with your own samsons or DTed mobile artillary.*****

ARm Level 1 Aircraft

This post will contain the Details of the Arm level one Aircraft. They are made by an aircraft plant. (Gasp!) Aircraft are very useful in TA where they can provide support for ships and ground troops.

Construction Aircraft: A fast moving Construction platform, it can traverse great distances quickly and construct an oversees colony without the need to make an Atlas and a Con. unit to take it there. However, they do have their flaws. They are vulnerable to AA fire and the worst part of it, There nanolathe makes things at such a slow pace some think it better just to make a Transport to send in a Regular con. unit. This is why you commonly see Con. Aircraft working in teams to make up for their lower nanolathe. When you have a large team of these you can actually make things EXTREMELY fast: My friend once made a Krogoth in 38 seconds with con. aircraft rushing it. All in all a good unit, make on maps that are mainly water or mountains. ****

Freedom Fighter: As the name explains, this is a fighter. A good aircraft, much superior to the Core Avenger. You will see alot of these on Cluster freak and several other maps. You should make this unit, however don't overdue it. It's only so good. Switch to Hawks as soon as possible. Also this unit is vulnerable to AA fire, so it's not an ideal escort fighter. Use to guard your base and chew up avenger formations, An FF can take on Avengers 2 to 1 and win. Counter with missile towers. ***

Thunder: ARM's level 1 bomber. This unit has a smaller payload than it's Core relative, but is faster and turns faster. This makes it the ultimate raiding aircraft. Also use a Peeper to scout out targets for it. once fond almost anything can be destroyed by 6 or 7 Thunders. These can also be used against Naval forces, but not as effective as Torpedo bombers are at this. Use wisely, as they are vulnerable to AA. Good raider, but doesn't have the power to compete with the Core EQ. so it lives in it's Shadow (hehehe) ***

Atlas: The Arm air transport. This unit will transport a single other unit to a location quite rapidly. It's great for expanding on cluster freak or Hundred Islands. BUT!!!!! do not use this to try and send an Army at the enemy base, u simply need to many atlas's and it takes to long to load and unload them all. Also, scout ahead to determine the location of enemy AA because the Atlas is EXTREMELY vulnerable to it. and if your Commy gets killed, u lose. Good unit, but don't try and use them while AA is at hand. ****

PEEPER: The arm scout plane, Known as "PEEPS" Good scouts, with a short Radar and high speeds. This aircraft is almost immune to AA via it's high speed. But, it's unarmed so it can;t be used to bomb things. What a pity. Also use peeps to get the general layout of the enemy base. Remember in war, information is your greatest ally, Alot of it will normally result in your victory, a lack of it will probably end with your defeat. *****

The Alliance

The Reagan lay in the middle of the pacific, five escorts surrounding her, pinging their sonar, searching for enemy subs. On board the Reagan three men sat around a wooden conference table deep in discussion. One of them was Admiral Peter gerjing of the United states, The other two were supreme commander Caladan of the Australian remnant, and General Vladimere of Russia. Vladimere looked around the room, "dis is a ship you have here Admiral Veter, I am surprised that she is still in such good shape despite ze war." "Thank you General," Peter said, "but I am afraid that we have business to attend to." "yes," Caladan growled, "and I want to get this treaty signed as quickly as possible." "I am sure that you do Caladan," Peter replied, "so lets get down to it. As you can see," Peter pointed to a map with several areas marked red on it, "The war between the Two factions of ARM and CORE have wiped out much of our population and military equipment, Making us weak and causing us to pick and choose which areas we have to protect. As a result many more civilians have died and this one side, the CORE, has spread over vast portions of the planet. Until recently, we believed that the Core had had enough and was withdrawing. Now we know the truth. You see the Core actually can not afford to let our planet slip away from them, because it turns out that this is one of the few remaining solar systems whose resources remain almost completely intact. The Gas giants of our system remain full of fuel for Space craft and vehicles, our asteroids and mars remain full of metal, and for a reason for which we do not know the Core has been showing an increasing interest in mercury. So while we thought they were falling back they were actually building this." Peter tapped a button on the table and a picture appeared on a TV screen. Vladimere gasped, "vat is dat?" he asked. Peter spoke, "That was taken from a spy plane 32 hours ago, and the Core unit in the center there is called a Krogoth. According to some information the CIA managed to intercept they are almost indestructible, with enough weapons to destroy half an army." Peter's eyes twinkled. "Or at least half of one of our armies,

if we combine our forces, and only if, we will be able to survive, but if we don't, we will die. So Peter said do we combine our troops and save ourselves from total annihilation, or will we be destroyed and the earth with us?" The other two seemed to freeze for a minute before Caladan said, "we will fight to the death." Vladimere nodded and murmured, "for Earth." "For Earth" the others said, there faces determined and there spirits full of hope.
