Cheat Codes:

Giant Ant missions:
————
Hold [Left Shift] and click on the round speaker at the title screen to play
the four bonus Giant Ant missions. To kill the ants easily, use Rocket Soldiers.
However, use Medium or Mammoth Tanks for the Fire Ants. If your units are
standing still, they will have a much better chance of killing the ants.
Telsa Tank:
———–
Start a multiplayer or skirmish game and play as France. Make sure there is a
tech level of at least 7. Hold [Shift] before building a Radar Jammer. The
unit is now a Tesla Tank, although it looks like a Radar Jammer.
Low power strategy:
——————-
When you have low power, your defense (Turret, Flame Tower, Pillbox, etc.)
can still function. But structures such as Tesla Coils, AA Guns, and Radar
Domes will go offline. Your radar will not appear until the power is back
to normal. However, your other structures will still build or repair
depending on how much power is available to you; the less power, the slower
the construction.
Free men:
———
Build a missile silo. When the missile is ready, sell the silo and immediately
launch the missile. If this was done quickly enough, the sale will have stopped
and some troops will come out of the silo.
Tanks vs. spy:
————–
Although you may think your spy is safe if no dogs are present, tanks are
still dangerous. They will not shoot at your spy, but will instead try to
crush him.
Cruisers without protection:
—————————-
Cruisers can fire at water-vehicles by force firing on the target. However,
it will not do as much damage as if normal target was attacked.
Create ants:
————
