Hint: Quick attack:
When you are parachuting or just jumping out of a plane, wait until you are about two seconds from hitting the ground before opening your parachute, This is useful when making a quick attack on the enemy.

Hint: Jeep bomb:
When playing in any level, get into a jeep. If you see an enemy tank nearby, ride the jeep at full speed into the tank. Jump out immediately before it hits so you do not die. If you do this to a light tank, it will only have about three bars of health remaining. If there is a friendly tank nearby, they will finish the job. Note: This only works with the jeep, as it is the only vehicle that can go fast enough.

Drive a jeep to a opposing team's base. Exit the jeep and put a explosive pack in it. Then, hide so that the opposing team will not see you. Watch to see if the opposing team gets in it, then blow up the jeep.

Hint: Easy win:
Take an airplane, fly it to the other team's side, then drop out and land on their side of the map. In there base, hide in a building and kill them as they enter.

Hint: Secret airport:
Play the Gazala level and start at the main base when you begin. Get into a fast vehicle (plane or jeep recommended) to get there before of any bots. Go to square 1-B, or just go to the edge of the base facing the nearest area boundary then follow the boundary all the way to the left until you get there. On the map, there should also be a small gray dot signifying an AA Gun at the secret airport to point you in the correct direction. Once you get there, you should immediately see two British planes and two buildings, one with the repair, and one with health for you. There should also be an ammo supply.
