Ground Attack Strategy

Ground Strike Strategies:
 

Similar to air strike strategy, select your attack targets carefully by scout their base beforehand with a fine-toothed comb. A pro ground attacker will most likely choose the bases which has less natural obstacles and has a clear view to attack. Any poor base layout which defenders and buildings built closely together also is a good pick as your target. Check if there any hidden rally flag behind trees. Use my Airmed Drone Hive vs Ion Cannon data sheet to identify the location of Ion Cannon because you need to destroy it immediately.

In general speaking, all ground forces attack strategy pretty much the same. You start out with command strikes first. Burn down Ion Cannon and Metal Rains with Orbital Strike(s), then use A-10 bomb(s) and hellfire missile(s) take out as many Artillery units as possible. I recommended to save three command points for Combat Stim or five command points for Medpack. Once troops deploy into battlefield and the opponent defensive units start attacking your troops, hit Combat Stim to boost their speed and damage ability to quickly destroy all enemy ground forces or to heal allied units on the battlefield. In this way you can save more troops from being destroyed and get more building destruction, in order to trade more command points for more command strike attacks to use.

If you unfortunately ran into a Domed Defense Alpha Configuration Aerial Defenses base ( I called it disco party), you do have some chance to survive if you have EMP on hand. Use it to shut down these domes attack, then click Combat Stim (If you still have command points left) to quickly destroy them.

Advance players usually don't break down troops in several teams, and control their path to destruct buildings. They will let them attack freely with command strikes to help clean out any impediment. There only one exception is CnC vehicle that you may want to drive it through the map to shut down defenders.  

   

I do not recommend players mix and match ground forces with air forces. Since there ground and air defenders you need to concern them all that takes too much work and energy in strategy. Plus your effort may not worthy because you split resources to develop, upgrade both ground and air units; while other players have developed couple high level ground troops then you might only have few kinds of average troops for your attacks. 

    

Remember, there are no fixed rules for victory, any way or style you fight to win a battle is definitely what you need in any strategy game. Always know what your limit is in each HQ level and try not to exceed that. As I said, you basically have an ability to win a base which has 10+ exp then yours. But since each player has different combination and level on their troops, you have never know what exp and hq enemies you can handle unless you do some experiments.

Observes how people (buddies and opponents) attacks is a great way to learn fighting skills. See how they use command strikes to apply into what defenders, where they start their troops deployment, and which method they use to move their squad forward. These information will be valuable as your reference before you find yourself best attacking style from achieving complete destruction victory.

If you have maximum upgraded your Weapon command and troops level, and applied all your command points into command strikes, plus strike forces on your troops with all attack strategies I mentioned in above and still have difficulty that keep loosing your battles. Then my final recommendation for you is choose the opponent bases which has equal or less Exp with HQ level than yours to attack.
