Modern Command is the latest mobile release from Chillingo, an entertaining tactical action game where you defend your base from enemies using a variety of weapons. As you proceed through each mission, you'll be able to unlock new power-ups and tools, which will come in handy against tougher adversaries.
Here are some tips to help you crush the opposition.
From there, it's a matter of selecting which weapon you want to use and then tapping on the enemy's position - or close to it - to attack them. Chain guns will attack an enemy very closely, while with missiles, you need to allow for a delay between when they launch and when they hit the targets. Plan ahead and you'll hit them with no problem.
The key here is to continue moving around the map. Enemies strike from different directions, and if you don't keep up the tactical advantage, you're likely to get overrun. The goal is to keep your base intact throughout the course of the mission. If you lose too much energy, you'll lose the round.
The key here is timing your shots, as you have to reload each of your weapons after using them for so long. Fortunately, as the game goes on, you can stock more of them in your base and switch between them, so you'll never be out of firepower. Just don't wear them out, because that means you're likely to be overrun.
Meanwhile, you can also use Research to develop new accessories that you'll use in battle, including bomber jets and other power-packing weapons. Take advantage of these as often as you can, because it'll help you prepare for bigger and badder enemies later on in the game.
On a side note, you can earn an additional three stars free-of-charge by signing into Facebook. We recommend doing this anyway, as you can pass along challenges to fellow players.
