That doesn't sound like a newbie advice,more like a pro tip !  Worth trying this,shows also that higher techs is needed not just for air but also most likely need close to max tech in tanks and artillery. |

I tried this on Alien mission 2; Mexico City is equipped anti-air missile. There was no anti-air animation when Alien attack the city and my unit did not seem to take less damage. So I guess this is not a true story. Can anyone confirm this. I am probably wrong (and I hope that I am right about the fact that I am wrong).

It only sees to work for carriers, since they use the strategic bombing with a different animation
Btw do you rocket defence upgraded to 4 to build 4 of them in 1 city?

My air defense is not high enough to be able to properly test this.

FINALLY! The humans can finally resist the Aliens! I believe that Artillery and Infantry also work against the Aliens I believe, but not armor. Is this true?

The aliens have bonus damage against armor units and also against ships and fortifications,there is a thread showing their skills. Artillery units suffer regular damage only without any extra damage plus the no retaliation attack with rockes or only 60% chance of counters with field artillery make it an ideal unit to fight aliens with. Infantry is used to steal cities a very important component if alien conquests,otherwise they are pretty much cannon fodder. |

Thanks Saltin.
But when I saw the update in the App Store and it said "Added 1975 conquest mode", I was like "Yes! So that means there's going to be the October War, The Soviet War in Afghanistan, maybe even the Vietnam War! Man I can't wait to play this!"
When I go into the app to play the scenario:"OH shoot, WTF IS UP WITH THIS?! ARE THESE ALIENS? WHY EASYTECH, WHY?!?!?!!"
