I like to rush a rebel base, make one base a supply base and then build up defenses, amassing a huge army.

silly rush tactics.

Red Son Rising
Strategy
Arbiter + early recon = hunters for warthogs or jackals for flamethrowers /leader rushers.
kill everything theyve got then start on the buildings.

John Ryan @ May 19th 2009 12:36PM
Be covy with the arbit build a few units and send them out minutes after the game has begun.
joeybeast @ May 19th 2009 12:40PM

Who doesn't like free DLC? :)
RazorD @ May 19th 2009 12:46PM
Gotta be the rush!
iblpredator @ May 19th 2009 12:48PM
wolverine rush. pretty powerful stuff to be rushed by 15-20 anti-airs. they never see it coming
Jon @ May 19th 2009 12:49PM
Personally, I enjoy the co-op multiplayer the most. It's great when you have one person base building/defense and one person offensive. For regular multiplayer? I'd say Uber Hawk's "rush".
gweedyj @ May 19th 2009 12:49PM
in for one.

Danny @ May 19th 2009 12:50PM

SAVUK @ May 19th 2009 12:52PM

DanyDanman @ May 19th 2009 12:52PM
Gotta be the rush!
Neorev @ May 19th 2009 12:58PM
warthog rush, its so cheap but quick
DaRabidDuckie @ May 19th 2009 12:54PM
Prophet of Truth stealth rush, woot! Lasers + fast melee elites + teleporting behind the base to the Prophet = destruction
koolin @ May 19th 2009 12:58PM
tank boom ftw
VedicHymn @ May 19th 2009 12:58PM
I like blowing the shit out of stuff with Locusts, does that count?
Hybridenishi @ May 19th 2009 1:17PM
Not a fan of rushing unless it's a Zerg rush but leader rush with heals is good too
Chris @ May 19th 2009 12:59PM
My favorite is to rush!
haukke @ May 19th 2009 12:59PM
i usually do co-op and gather all resourses
DjDATZ @ May 19th 2009 12:59PM
Hog Rush FTW. Literally. :P
Chuck Jacobson @ May 19th 2009 1:00PM
Brute chieftain with brutes and banshees as fast as I can get them out. Almost a "rush" but not quite.
BobTheMonkey @ May 19th 2009 1:00PM
SP+hog, SP+hog,SP+hog, R+hog, SP+Gunner,R+hog,Grenadiers, rush.
pkort @ May 19th 2009 1:01PM
warthog rush while defending with gremlins. slowly pump up supplies until hawx, and victory is yours!
wargamer17 @ May 19th 2009 1:01PM
I haven't really played multiplayer but probably getting as many units as I can then rush
Zerokku @ May 19th 2009 1:01PM
Zerg rush
matt @ May 19th 2009 1:03PM
free stuff
Dan the Man @ May 19th 2009 1:03PM
Using Professor Anders and building a bunch of Hawks.
Sunny @ May 19th 2009 1:06PM
I'm quite fond of the Zerg rush, tbh.
Oh wait... wrong game. :[
Phawx @ May 19th 2009 1:07PM
I'm actually quite partial to the chieftain+Brute rush. Brutes are quite effective against buildings.
Gemini Ace @ May 19th 2009 1:09PM
Warthog rush with a peppering of MAC blasts.
Syniz @ May 19th 2009 1:10PM
A good offense start with a great defense.
John @ May 19th 2009 1:11PM
warthog rush
UndefiledRage @ May 19th 2009 1:13PM
Run and hide
JohnnyRnR @ May 19th 2009 1:14PM
The high fives rule!
holapenguin @ May 19th 2009 1:15PM
In 3v3, my 2 teammates will build units while I upgrade to max MAC cannon, asap. Then we rush with MACs and tear shit up.
DaRatt @ May 19th 2009 1:15PM
I popped HW in my 360 last night and forgot how fun it was.
wrog @ May 19th 2009 1:15PM
Rush with Prophet of Regret :D
Larry @ May 19th 2009 1:16PM
Build up my defense. Do some early scouting. Eventually rush with tanks
Deezul @ May 19th 2009 1:19PM

Latin_Trident @ May 19th 2009 1:23PM
strong home defense, massive mother offensive
Stephen @ May 19th 2009 1:25PM
Going to go with the Warthog rush.
Turchinsky @ May 19th 2009 1:26PM
Raping enemy's army with Arbiter while preparing a scarab attack.
Syed Haque @ May 19th 2009 1:27PM
