So, I've been playing a lot of Dogfight, and I've noticed that there are a lot of people who don't really know a good build order. I will post what has been working for me, and it lets me build infinitely sustainable Scouts.

Note: Dogfight is the game mode where only air units are allowed. The way that these are won is with mass Scout camping/rushes.

Steps:
0) Choose Fascists!
1) Build a Bank.
2) Upgrade Bank to Treasury.
3) Build a Generator.
4) Build a Forge.
4a) DO NOT WASTE TIME/MONEY UPGRADING FORGE.
5) Turn on Rally Point.
6) Auto-build Scouts.
7) Once you hit 50 cash while building Scouts, upgrade Generator.
8) Once you hit another 50 Cash, build another Generator, and upgrade it at your leisure.

Micromanagement:
Set your Scouts to Hold right outside range of their base gun, which will let you kill each of the enemy's Scouts as they spawn. When you amass another 10-20 Scouts, send them up and put them on Hold with the rest of your scouts. When you have 50-60 Scouts, send them all to attack the base. You will take out the base in 5 seconds.

True story: I've been accused of hacking for microing like this. "How do you get my Scouts to die once they spawn? Hacker." Priceless.

Hope this helps.

If you mean Dogfight:The Great War or the german campaign, then heres some tips for you: First of all use the "ace tactics", then, if you have bombs, here s an easy way to take out an ace: fly all the way up, the ace goes after you and once hes right under you drop the bomb. Note, dont do this if theres alot of planes and enemies as you will get damaged before the ace is eleminated he will do some damage to you. Good hunting...


Lol wow. No we mean Colony set to the mode of dogfight.

In the case of mass Scout camping, one of your allies will have time to set up BQs or Saints. It might not work against an experienced enemy, though.

It probably won't. Experienced dogfighters lol i just made that up i think will wipe you out no matter what you do. Glitchers, the best thing to do is to glitch back lol or if you cant you should do phantoms.

The best way is to rush them with scouts and saints and black queens(optional) then they will lose to this tactic

If you blockade the enemy, that would be a good plan against them

The second this has been done, you have pretty much won 100% as long as you continue making scouts enough to handle whatever the opponent makes because saint can't beat like 10 scout and it takes ages until you are able to even make a saint in comparison to 20 scouts and same goes for bq or any other air unit.
