Other times, the AI may send a swarm of units to attack a specific unit or structure, but they will completely ignore everything else in their path even if they are getting bombarded - ex. Or instead of sending an infantry unit to capture your oil derrick (a source of funds in the game), it may just have the infantry unit unload it's machine gun on it for 5 minutes until it is destroyed. The AI usually just sends swarms of units at whatever is in sight - for example it might send a Gattling Tank to attack your base defense, even though it is an anti-infantry weapon which is virtually useless against buildings. On the hardest setting the AI can put up a good fight, but only because the enemy is given a funds handicap and is able to crank out wave after wave of units. The game isn't perfect by any means however, and one of the most annoying faults is the poor enemy AI. Units and combat look great from a bird's eye perspective and the large diversity of units, each with their own special abilities and even voice work keeps the combat fresh and exciting. The core gameplay is streamlined and you'll be able to start cranking out units and engaging in battle almost immediately - the game has only one resource ("funds") and you won't have to spend inordinate amounts of time waiting to "do research" or build structures just to access later units and abilities, which in my opinion is a huge plus. However while these sub-factions offer the player a handful of unique units or abilities, they feel sloppily designed and unbalanced (The Chinese Tank General completely lacks artillery, while the GLA Stealth General completely lacks tanks for example) and feel like an add-on thrown in at the last minute. If you have the Zero Hour expansion, the game also offers 3 sub-factions ("Generals") which have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, such as the USA Air Force General, or the Chinese Infantry General. The USA specializes in powerful and high-tech, but expensive units China focuses on sheer numbers and brute force, while the GLA focuses on mobility and underhanded tactics such as toxins and demo traps). Each of the factions have an entirely unique set of units, structures and abilities, with each faction specializing in a different aspect of combat (ex. The game includes 3 main factions, USA, China, and the Global Liberation Army (GLA), a Middle-Eastern terrorist faction meant to resemble Al-Qaeda. And to this day, the game still holds up as a fun and satisfying experience with enough pizazz to appeal even to gamers who aren't typically fans of strategy or RTS games. Of all the games from my childhood, I may have spent more time on Command and Conquer Generals than nearly any other, with a few possible exceptions.
