Nice tip, i only waypoint scout with China, beccause your first unit (if you worked out yur vs usa) could easly suprise the player.
With GLA I tend not to but should really, i lost to quite a few china players cause of supply trucks in middle slowing down economy at start with supply trucks and stopping flanking workers etc.

But also, when your playing as the USA then you won't need to waypoint scout because you scan their base at the beginning of the game, thus seeing their army, thus not needing to waypoint scout.... frusty.gif

Excellent tip again, obviously you put some effort in it. Thanks! I once saw a gamecam-video of XeoNeq (CCG-player) doing this trick. I did understand that his purpose was to determine his opponent or maybe even structure locations, but didn't understand how he did it (it went extremely fast...).

I think you're thinking of box trick, which is only in CCG. Works the same kind of way except you can tell exactly what's there by dragging a box over it smile.gif

Oh I only usually waypoint scout the unsafe supp on FE or the middle on TD in China mirrors with certain strats.

i played zh just a few times , im a ccg player , no wonder y i couldnt find anything with my box trick on zh in a RvR biggrin.gif , didnt no it doesnt work on zh

well u just select the opponent base , or every place u presume he can build ( like u select units with a large box ) , then building or units reveal on the bottom right of ur pannel

In CCG you make a small box selection (small as in about the size of a tank) and if a building is in the spot you boxed, the portrait will show up. Doesnt work in ZH though

Yes, the hoster is maybe not longer active.
Would be good to make new pictures, ask the GR staff!
