Quick notes
- Choose the faction for its complete roster. UEF, Aeon, Cybran and Seraphim share the main economic tasks but differ in their specific units and technology.
- Separate the campaign from skirmish. The single-player campaign lets you select UEF, Cybran or Aeon.
- Treat builders as military infrastructure. Engineers repair, reclaim and create forward positions.
- Check the rule set before copying advice. Forged Alliance Forever and other mods can alter units, balance and interface behavior.
