Baloogan Rush

A very effective, low micromanagement horde tactic. The most important part of a Baloogan Rush is prepairing your forces beforehand.

Baloogan Rush in action.

Materials

• 50% armor/infantry
• 35% artillery Must be the slow type. Not self propelled
• 5% aa
• 10% support

So if you had 50 units (about average for a Baloogan Rush) you would need:

• 15 light infantry
• 10 tanks
• 17 non self propelled artillery
• 4-5 AA units (you can add more if your enemy is using heavy air support)
• 2-3 supply trucks (for the artillery)

Method

A 'mature' Baloogan Rush, note that the artillery is protected by a ring of tanks.

Turn off military initative.

You mass your forces inside your own borders then select a good portion (about 30-50 or so units) and then order them to move to one hex infront of your most furthest unit. While the faster tanks and infantry move forward the artillery is free to fire without being fired upon as the tanks and infantry are faster. When the tanks and infantry arrive on the designated hex they begin to spread out as to not over stack. Because your forces are following behind you the units that are being redirected to the rear of the formation get redirected further, which means that your covering forces are weaker at the rear of the formation. As the artillery and support nears the designated hex they spread out which forces the already spread out tanks and infantry to spead out futher. This means that your artillery and AA and supply trucks are surrounded by your tanks, which is why this is a very nice tactic.
