Let's Play C&C 08 (NOD): Commanding Commandos
Commandos are a very interesting unit in this game. Possessing an unparalleled ability to decimate infantry and able to blow up buildings using explosives, they're a powerful one man army with a few glaring drawbacks. Being infantry they can be run over by tanks, they are vulnerable to grenades and can be killed by even the humble hum vee or NOD buggy. They also require a significant amount of micromanagement to get the maximum use out of, one of the few times I tend to slow down the game a little.
In fact, the game starts to throw a few missions quite similar to the one we've been doing; given a small amount of units, you need to navigate them towards a barely functioning base. You typically get engineers that'll help you retake essential buildings but there's an added layer of difficulty. Not only does the airstrike timer start immediately but the AI tends to send a rather sizable attack force very soon after you get your base going. Quick thinking on your construction priorities and getting the most out of your surviving units is essential in the early stages when you're building up your forces. Having the commando survive helps a lot as well.
