They should do a BMFE 2 style where you can press up on the joystick and tap A and it will Autoset up your troops in a line based on size or hero. Look it up.
do a unit composition video. one that shows how to maximize unit efficiency. for example using the extra range for Jerome's snipers or the extra speed on shipmaster's wraiths. decimus's banshee/vortex/boundless siphon combo is another good example
Could you do a bit in a tip video about how to take care of your macro really quickly so that you can switch back to micro Sometimes I find myself getting too caught up in micro management and then notice I have 3000 power and supply that I should be making use of Thanks guys for all the great vids you do, watched all of them since I subbed after the first tournament you guys did :) really helped my game play
john sosebee not really much more to know honestly lol that's the quickest way to go back to your base to train troops since you can't set your base or production buildings to hotkeys
As a Competitive Starcraft player and a onyx level halo wars 2 player I would love to help anyone who reads this on micro and macro and general rts tips if you need
Always keep your eye on the mini-map or at the very least pay attention to it. Send out small individual squads to act as look outs. I see a good chunk of new players use God-power artillery as an extension of siege teams. Instead, you should always strive to use them to wipe out large hosts when they are advancing on your position, either towards your base or when they are trying to save their own. Although it's good to listen to the faction leader warn you verbally, they can only give one tip and situation report at a time. The MINIMAP is omnipotent but silent, but is key to micromanaging the field, especially when dividing your own host into two to prevent God Powers from decimating them.
These tactics help a little I like it. Just. Cause this RTS is different than most. Id love to play with you guys, I was onyx last season. Havent had good luck with random matches cause people leave or don't know when to push the attack or fallback.
one thing a friend does is tospam vultures then when the vulture army is defeated he does cyclopes.againsta all wolverine army could that be a tactic also one on how to start up a base or base defense for unsc would be appreciated in my opinion unsc bases are pathetic and impossible to protect against base rushes compared to banished ex pelican drops 10 colosuses which are invulnerable for 10 sec then get back to base when destroyed how can that be stopped even
heres a few ideas unit combos for fighting a better army 2 microing power combos for power heavy leaders ex cutter colony and serna 3 withdrawing with slower units with a bigger army 4 how to get a feel for your hero like commander jerome can be a rush hero or forge is a support hero
You guys need to talk more about macro instead of micro but I think that is the Starcraft player in me I mean I call suicide grunts banelings and Kodiaks siege tanks
What they really need in the game is an actual matchmatcking system that doesn't put my level 37 self with a level 5. I'm sick of losing matches because the matchmaking can't find a decent matchup in ranked.
Isaac Campos See but thats the problem, a rank I can't even see in game is affecting who I'm playing with and skewing me towards level 5 when I don't rage quit or lose consistently. It's frustrating to say the least
How do you do that thing where, if you have a variety of units, you select all of one type of unit. For example, if you have marauders and engineers, but you just want to select the marauders. (If that makes sense.)
Nathan Albovias Select all units. Cycle through them with RT. Hold RT on selected group. Hold d-pad in one of the 4 directions while still holding RT. That group is now assigned to RT+D-pad Up (for example). You can have 4 total groups assigned.
advanced micro tips to improve your foreplay
You can't play the game of life without learning the importance of foreplay. - Nick
Breaking the Clutch foreplay is the loading screen, come on now.
please do more of these little tactical vids they really help out
Loved it! I'll have to apply these more often, I've actually been working on paint spreading quite a bit lately. Thanks fellas!

Your like the Bob Ross of halo wars 2 lol
cohiba1982 "and we will put a happy little supply pad right here"
you guys should do a blitz firefight with commander jerome and make it like a Spartan last stand with lots of omega team drops

Lewis Golledge use the dpad to jump back to your base then after building units use the dpad to go back to units

Have you guys implemented the group assigning into your gameplay?
Holding RT+D-Pad will assign a selected group to that input.
How do you pic certain units when that certain type of unit is in a cluster of different troops ?😀
Keep up the great work guys!
Hey could you guys do a video on how to build a army up to attack or defend as I have no idea
I think that the first tip "paint spreading" would be much easier and more precise if you hold down RT+A and then choose your units.
By concave you mean surround and spread so the enemy turn time is longer and deny a good retreat.
Tele-stack is good for death balls and boxing.
How about managing organised units in groups with the D-pad?
We need halo wars 3 for the new consoles .

Do a video on groups! I feel like groups are not used to their potential
as for tele stacking. works best if u mash x up against a cliff or wall. u can get a full Pop army in T1 tele

Nick is so awesome and smart
Aren’t elite squads stronger than brute squads??
do you think cloaked grunts is a good opener?

The matchmaking matches according to mmr not rank.

Just got Onex any advice

Nathan Albovias If you are playing on Xbox and you have multiple units in an army, use rt to cycle through them
Nathan Albovias doble tap A on an unit to select all units of that same type.
Nathan Albovias
Select all units.
Cycle through them with RT.
Hold RT on selected group.
Hold d-pad in one of the 4 directions while still holding RT.
That group is now assigned to RT+D-pad Up (for example).
You can have 4 total groups assigned.
