Started playing the game yesterday. There are flaws in the AI that can be exploited.
For example, in the (6th?) harkonnen mission, I'm facing Ordos that start with a good dozen of siege tanks. There is no way I can build fast enough to protect against this.
However, you can herd the siege tanks and make them follow a small group of faster units such as tanks or a quads around the map. While doing that, I had another small group of tanks go destroy a couple buildings in their base until the siege tanks come back. Retreat, rinse and repeat.
Definitely not complaining (THANKS FOR THIS GAME!), just pointing out that the AI is almighty.
