Unification is too hard?
I've just installed Unification and omg, it's too hard. I need some help please.
Background: Been playing DOW for years on INSANE difficulty and on large maps, me+1xAI 'vs' 4xAI and I usually win. I prefer to play space marines. My tactics are to quickly get 1 or 2 power gens going; LPs for the nearest places and barracks, followed by armory. 1 set of space marines early on is usually enough to protect whilst my base and resources build. Scouts go as far as they can until they meet resistance where i'll usually just let them die.
Now, for Unification. I got battered on insane level, so thought - i'll go down to EASY and then i'll be able to easily take my time and work out what new units the space marines have to counter the enemy (usually orcs).
Unless i'm mistaken, space marines don't get many new units? Within a very short period of time, the orcs are chucking some huge things against me and even with 5 or 6 fully armed space marines, i get my ass kicked within no time at all.
I've gone from winning on insane (against more AI) to losing a 1v1 on easy.
Whilst i do like to base build and turtle, i know this game isn't designed to promote that game play - so i even tried focusing on all our attack as soon as possible. Got battered as soon as i got near AI base. AI had alsorts of high level stuff and i'd only just got armory built and the marines upgraded to rocket launchers.
Help pls ... how do you play space marines on Unification?
