    It took me about 40 hours to go from Openskill 1 to os 2. I’m now os 5. I mainly play core front and just ball up tanks with a repairing station behind or I use my com to repair. Works great when it works but sometimes I get pushed before I have enough of a mass and then I’m useless and get crushed. It’s definitely a chaotic game

      I have no idea what os I actually am because private matches mess with it. But I usually fulfill the role of air support and it always goes one of two ways:

      1. opponents don’t bother with air, I scramble to build bombers and gunners.
      2. Oppononents do build air and my fleet of fighters does something.

      I really want to be the economy daddy but unfortunately I am not good at it. I’ll have to try your strat next time I’m core front instead of flooding assault tanks with no backup.

        Is air hard to learn? I feel like it’s hard to manage helping the whole map

          You just have to be a good mixture of pro/reactive. It can be hard if you don’t know the units but there aren’t that many. Fighters and gunners are your friends. This last point I think might not be a good move but I skip the bot lab when I do air and go straight to aircraft. It only screws me when my home bois let enemies get passed their lines. Which does happen. Again though, I am a noob myself so hopefully I’m not feeding you a bogus strat but I probably am lol
