I would like some advice for SC1 here in this thread (I’m talking tactics, etc…)
If your mass storage is full, any excess is wasted, so you should always try to make sure that it is being spent on something useful. SC1/FA incentivizes a constant balancing of your economy.
You can reclaim mass from dead units (even civilians), buildings, rocks, trees etc. Trees also give a bunch of energy which can be useful very early on. A failed attack will quite often turn out to be a mass donation that gets recycled into an army for realiation. All of this might be balanced differently between the different versions of the game, so I can’t be sure that it applies all that well to base SC1 vs. FA or even FAF.
Don’t build all your energy reactors in a big cluster if you can help it. One well placed attack will blow the whole thing up in a chain reaction. On the other hand, sabotaging your opponents power grid is often a solid strategy.
If anyone is interested in FAF and wants to take a look at some different levels of gameplay, check out GyleCast on YouTube.
Any good let’s plays/Walkthroughs on SC1 ?
Sorry, no idea. I think I’ve only ever watched other people play multiplayer supcom and the few tutorials I watched were for Forged Alliance Forever. This is the kind of stuff I was watching a decade ago. Check it out if you’re into old gameplay videos with a crusty mic track. :D
