erichswafford -> How I play Command (now) (3/29/2015 9:40:49 PM)

For the longest time, I would blow through scenarios at high time-compression, the little icons would swirl around and basically stuff would blow up and I wouldn't know exactly why or how it all happened. So, about a month ago, I decided to *really* slow down. You know what? The game is just way more fun like that. I still use time compression (usually 5 or 15sec with no-pulse) until I see something interesting about to go down. Then I will drop back to real-time and just...watch. This has allowed me to achieve a much better understanding of how everything works, but it's also just way more *fun*. Playing a scenario is now more like a collection of small stories where most of the entertainment comes from watching these little dramas play out in real-time. It also allows me to fine-tune what's happening and, in general, feel more invested in the action. My imagination provides all the explosions and frantic radio-calls :). Anyway, if you're like I was and find yourself just blowing through scenarios to get to the end, try playing this way instead. I think you'll find it's a lot more satisfying and plus you get to appreciate just how hard your AI-controlled units are fighting for their lives.
