I really like GLA's stealthy side, here are some tips about using GLA's arsenal

1. Build bomb trucks and disguise them as civilian cars manually detonate them when the enemy comes

2. Disguise bomb trucks as bulldozers and some players wont even bother a large group of "his" bulldozers coming to his base.

3. Make use of the tunnel system, build many of them.

4. Rocket Buggies are REALLY excellent for hit-and-run tactics

5. Putting RPG soldiers in front of a tank war is a wise idea.

6. Attack infantry with Bio weapons like the anthrax bomb and the toxic tractor

There are so much to explore about GLA, that good ol bomb truck reminds me of the "One way trip!".

1. If your not gonna do anything with it..just use demo traps. With this kinda method it sounds like you like to turtle a little which is not something I would recommend with gla.
2. ...................................... no comment
3. Dont waste your money just building them..put them by your supplies near you war fac and maybe sneak one near the enemy to get troops there quickly but otherwise its overkill.
4. only good in groups though
5. Yeh use as much fodder as you can and micro everything
6. Just upgrade the scorpions with anthrax for a 1000..much easier

Scorpions are the name of the game for gla so 1...2 and even sometimes 3 war facs is necessary.

yep GLA is all about scorps, tunnels and rocket buggies. demo trucks can work well if you're crafty, and terrorists in technicals are useful.

I play as china and no team gives me as hard a time as the GLA. I hate them! I do the best vs USA on average and I hate the GLA!

Whats a good way to fight scorps when suing china?

MiGs...use tank troopers and tanks to stop his scorps at first and just eventually get MiGs going with black napalm. It takes soooooooo long to aa going for gla. I wouldnt recommend teching up right away as overlords are easily sniped and captured by gla. Nuke cannons also own scorps..but i would start with MiGs first.

general opinion is that china owns both usa and gla early on, but if you go to somewhere like www.generalsreplays.com many are now saying that GLA are very effective against china.

bunkers and migs. try to turtle with bunkers (which are very cheap and fast to build, not to mention powerful) and get migs and lotus. firestorms will own groups of scorps (and quad cannons too - although you will lose migs) meanwhile lotus harasses. nuke cannons work a treat but they get hammered by rocket buggies.

EDIT
sorry just noticed i basically repeated what SL8 said.

thats if you let his go air...
but going early air against gla is senseless/risky except i u turtle...
thats a different story though...
but keeping ur enemies from going air is a feat!!!
