Im guessing you wont need to know the rest of the hotkeys
Now lets start:

Tatics: (Just Remember there is no TRUE tatic!!! And Also these are my tatics so people may have others thats what i mean by No TRUE tatic
1.Hybrid Grenediers,Infantry and maybe tanks.
Sprint past the infantry get to the grenadiers and use NANO BlADE (I found it much more pleasing then the gun) then use NANO BLADE on the tank maybe rocket if you unlocked it and then use your gun again at the infantry but keep walking towards them and if they dont die before you get to them slash them with NANO BLADE it was also more effective but if you just ran to them with Nano and they were full Hp it wasnt really tatical or effiecient.
2. Spike Dogs,Infantry and Grenadiers this time leave the grenadiers take out the dogs first with your gun NOT THE NANO BLADE AS SPIKE DOGS ARE ALSO CLOSE COMBAT and then kill the infantry with the same tatic of gunning them then blading them concluding the battle with a nano blade from you and watch the flames go up and kill the Spike Dog.
3. Under all weapons well there is no way to actually do it without dying or running out of battery from healing, so you need your army and use TATIC 1 then Spike dogs after that what ever you like! Just becareful to heal often when you get behind the enemy infantry!

Ok one my Time There is no True Tatic these were just what i think was most effective and pleasing.

Stage 1:
You will land in a few paces from the guyz you are to meet, you will find that there is 2 Barrels they are EXPLOSIVE so they can be usefull if near a enemy grenadier as if they the grenadier is killed by a explosion the spike dog will die as well. Just keep running right( Shift + &gt you will meet some enemies for the first time. There will be a dialogue on hybrid cruellty Use tatic 1 without hybrid grenadiers.Then 2 Spike dogs will come your way, just kill them with your standard rifle. Now keep walking
and them youll meet some people - Dialoge -
Now Hold Q and drag your mouse across them then press E and then Click F0LL0W. Then kill the enemies just right of you.
Use Tatic 1
Congratz you have passed Stage 1 and that wasnt so hard was it?

I will finish the rest of the game in a different one ignore my old one it was very dumb. But if you havent played this im sure you will love it espcially with a good storyline and RTS.
