    I actually thought demo should be higher since you have the best super weapon in the game and best general promotion in the game (how many times was your army leveled with a rebel ambush and u had 0 seconds to react to it ?) , but your justification that an experienced player won't let you get to that sweet late game is totally fair.

Techs, Quads, and Buggies are the GLA workhorses and *all* of them are more expensive for Demo. This means his main army is *always* smaller than other GLA generals. It's an easy to miss thing but a very big disadvantage for him in high-level play.

    If stealth general had Jarmen stealthed as he shoots, and his tunnels had a setting where they can opt not to shoot when army is in range to remain stealthed, would make him equal to air. If tank came with battlemasters and overloards with the speed upgrade already rather than waiting for the nuke to uprgrade.... would balance him up against other armies. If laser had laser infantry which did medium damage against tanks and infantry, would make him also more balanced.

I say 70% win in favor of Infrantry for early game spike and late game spam domination since hackers hack faster than vanilla hackers.

      But game developers rarely make a buff until it's hugely in need. Because nerfing is just easier technically. I doubt any remaster would be produced as clinical as the original zero hour. I bet it'll have slow menues, they'll change the sounds and voice actors, complicated HUD and for sure they'll add some agendas, new modes, battle royal, or fatty soldiers to prevent fat shaming, and 90% of the generals would be "netflixed", being gay and black.

      Bring back Unplayable Generals like Leang (China Boss),
      Mohmar “Deathstrike” (He appears in GLA Mission 01 and was planned to be a General),

    Agree with most, disagree with 4.
    1. All vanilla factions should be bottom tier. They're outclassed by nearly every special general. I'd say only Tank general is arguably worse.
    2. I'd put Nuke general as top China. The speed, damage, AND built in anti-infantry of the battlemasters gives you huge early rush power. Dude starts off with more than $4500 worth of end game upgrades! He's a better tank general than the Tank general! The explosion is supposed to be a weakness, but it's easy to turn it into a strength. Better powerplants and later nuke Migs is just icing on the cake. I've always found the radiation from tank blasts to be fine for beating out Infantry general.
    3. Demo general way higher. I've found early game demo traps and terrorists loaded into technicals to be fine for stalling until rebel ambush, at which point it's practically game over as you delete any army with no counter. Almost no effective counter to scuds popping in and out of tunnels.
    4. Swap Laser and Superweapon. Knock Stealth down a tier.

    One thing that throws a wrench into the list is Infantry vs Air Force. Air Force is definitely top tier, Infantry middle. But Infantry virtually hard counters Air Force, to the point that I would say he's the only general in the game that has a chance against an Air Force player of equal skill. No other general can defend against a humvee->raptor rush in time.

    Demo, nuke,inf and gla should go to tier a, demo has expensive units but it could wreck a whole army with a demo trap or a couple of normal bikes even before the upgrade, also gla is the only faction if we call vanilla a faction where you could build tanks and stealth them using gps scrambler, imagine a group of stealthed scrops hitting their rocket in a instance and disappearing again after a second with all damage they would do .. inf is the spam king of all factions just spam spam spam and you'll win, lots of swarmy tough units to kill and at the same time they do lots of damage, plus they are the only china faction that could make a secondary economy, vetted stealth hackers that are cheaper if i recall.. nuke with all the better and faster china units should be at least in b tier if not a ... they could wreck any infantry of any army with their splash radiation and suicide tanks + they still have the capability to make helix,flamers,gattling tanks ... a good mix would make you win.

Yes she gets absolutly demolished by AFG but she can also hard counter generals like tank or nuke with emp micro and alpha auroras. also 2500 for a particle is VERY cheap, and burton is cheaper (Comanche 1800 is probably the worst price mutation you have for any general, and SWG comancheÂŽs should also just cost 1200 like AFG in my opinion)

      Also mainly affecting tanks rating here is that pretty much any USA can go 2 full vees and ambulance and no matter what you can, you have probably lost the game. So regardless what else tank can do, it’s rating is already massively impacted by that

      A - Stealth because it's the most difficult to spot, Demo because all units are annoying, especially those cycles, Laser is a nightmare when rich but ironically, USA isn't really fond of capturing oil. Super Weapon, great defenses but sucks early game but once it survives, it will become a nightmare for opponents.
      B - GLA , USA the most versatile, Air Force CPU sucks 1v1 but it's a decent support

    in my country syria we've been playing this game in local pubs for God knows how long and there were rules when we played:
    1- no defences unless it's a tunnel network
    2- no peace time attack from the first second
    3- no superweapons unless you're china and need it for the upgrades then you build it and then sell it
    4- always play on random and if you draw USA in a 1 vs 1 you reroll
    if there are more players then if there's too many players that are USA on the same team you reroll as USA is considered the weakest faction
    and pretty much in our lobbies GLA vanilla and toxin and demo are unbeatable.....if its late game then you have no chance against them just give up.
    Nuke and infantry is pretty much the same but weaker unless you get spammed with nuclear migs and a billion soldiers then gg its a done game.

    Obviously everyone has a different opinion but super weapon general is the best. Your power plants produce 8 or 10 power right off the back and 300% power with the same $500 upgrade. So it frees up more room for other buildings or units and you actually save money so you can make supply platform to get residual income fairly quickly. Getting that residual income first will help you win as you also got the best defenses because you have EMP missile defenses which only need one hit on target to completely take out aircraft. Tanks gets disabled and become useless against you, and you can have snipers for infantry or commanches or colonel Burton or Humvees

      There is a nice trick to massively improve the defenses of the laser general: build command center or particle cannon next to a straight row of laser turrets and force fire with the turrent adjacent to the particle on the particle cannon, keeping a doser nearby to repair. This will trigger the effect on the nearby laser turrents to massively increase their range.

      @@DoMiNaToR3 I have. You can argue that things are more expensive and demo doesn't deal with lixes very well. But even if you consider GLA demo as regular gla with more expensive units, Demo is stronger than inf. You have so much greater versatility and mobility. Inf has trouble dealing with a tech RPG. And during late game, inf has trouble dealing with a scud launcher.
      Demo vs other glas plays like a GLA with more expensive units. But demo's special units are extremely cost effective. demo traps, db and etc are game changers. Just having 1 or 2 db forces your oppenent in to quads, allowing you to make scorps to trade effectively.

    Disclaimer: I am no pro, and I favor a game over 15 min anytime... Really early game play has no meaning for me.
    In my opinion Stealth is overrated here. You have no tanks, GLA vanilla can also stealth its tunnels. So what is the benefit of stealth. Fair enough you have stealthed hijackers from the very start and can just get the other factions tech. If you count this as a strength, then yes it is more powerful compared to Demo or GLA vanilla. But without another faction is is pretty much useless in late game compared to a GLA vanilla, which can do all the same thinks.
    Also Demo with the Demo Rebel Ambush and Demo Scud (launchers and SW) is also way to underrated here.
    In my opinion Tank is the weakest because he has no late game and much to expensive 2nd eco. Tank -> D
    Nuke is the best in the offence of all China factions. Dont underestimate Nuke MiKs, and early game nuke battelmasters, also free nuke canon... One hit of those and your army is pretty much toast.
    But what annoys me most is SW general. This is easily the strongest player in late game. What can you do against an financially Independent SW behind a big wall of EMP Patriots and snipers. If you attack with more than 2 units a Aurora will kill everything except it is stealthed. You can kill the whole base just by auroras. There is no way you can protect against these things... also early SW because only 2500... SW-> S or B
    But thanks for the video. It is still amazing how balanced this game is. Nothing compares to this masterwork of a game to this day. :D

    It has the fastest units of any China. Especially the Nuke Battlemasters are perfect against the V's early game when the V's & Missile Defenders are low on numbers.
    MiGs with the upgrade from the prop center is enough to wreck armies of V's. No need for for nuke MiG upgrade even, unless if the game is gonna last long of course.

    As a Air Force main, I have no problems with this list. Its just a pain when I fight any China main because the Flare/Chaff upgrade is practically useless when I enter a base full of Gatling Guns. Gatlings are such a hard counter to Air Force General and I think the only saving grace are the Auroras and their 50% speed buff when attacking. So its fun but a few mods that give the AF more to choose from goes hard too. There are some mods that buff certain generals. I forgot which mod, but between Rise of the Reds, Shockwave and Operation Firestorm, there was a High-Tech General that replaces the Super Weapon General and it was stupidly overpowered in terms General Abilities and the Drone Warfare

    I'm baffled how you gloss over the differences between Laser and Vanilla USA
    Laser has cheaper Avengers, and no Tomohawks. Especially cheaper Avengers (1500 instead of 2000) makes a big difference.
    Laser tanks are a lot better than normal tanks. On top of that, Laser cannot get Paladin tanks. Vanilla USA is actually the only faction that can get Paladin tanks.
    And you didn't mention laser turrets either, which are miles ahead of Patriots, especially because they bypass point defense lasers and can take out moving infantry. Alongside those, Laser also gets the more efficient power plants.
    Overall I think it's "fair" to put them on the same level, but they have a lot more differences than saying "Well they are kinda the same" (apparently because *you* play vees every game). A lot of people would absolutely prefer Laser in almost any matchup.
