General Feather Duster...


Oh, my interest! After "extensive" play (it's amazing how much you can fit into 1 day) I've come to the conclusion that all the generals rock except for the China Nuke General, who sucks donkey balls 24/7.

were getting serious error (the one where it exits everyone from the game) with AI of any amount in, and sync errors with just people, very wired, bring on patch 1.7

Yeh ive had some sync errors too - even on a 1v1.

Havent had a chance to try out all the generals yet, but the US laser guy is quite good fun. Stick some laser tanks with a sighting humvee thing, and its a very powerful attack.

Also, a few microwave tanks are great in attack.

Surely you mean bring on 1.1 Badcrumble, as if you look ZH is V1.0 EA said they may bring out a 1.7 Patch for standard generals to fix some bugs but not comfirming if they are.

after much consideration and a lot of evil laughter i've decided that i prefer the USA superweapon general, just for the emp turrets, had much fun shooting down planes and "stunning" tanks that come too near :)
