    True, in fact, just looking at this, it doesn't seem to focus on just two players facing off. It looks more to me like two players on each side, at least, and they're just using the generic skin colors. There's at least 13 air units there, and I somehow doubt that that has a point breakdown that still falls into the 20 points permitted to a single player.

    Maybe the maps vary in point caps?

    Depends what system the game is using.
    In ammo based rts, aircraft ussualy carrying few missiles while land AA has huge missile racks that able them to counter far more air units at once, in some rts air units must even return to base for new payload.

    You must have one a fast ground unit to capture flags and powerful air army to destroy enemies + turrets + super weapon. And you're invincible ...

    Only if the other team doesn't show up with the same thing...
    People who say it cannot be done should get out of the way of those who are doing it.

    The question isn't whether or not you survived EoN 2012, but rather, whether or not you survived The Exarchs.

    Or they just put down a lot of AA and a few tank to kill infantry. Or they go all infantry themselves and hop from point to point.

    You had best hope that the enemy isn't a clan and sending a commander loaded with AA MIGs at you. Otherwise its going to shoot about a million holes through your 'Iron Curtain', no Soviets reference intended :P

    Sure air units can't capture flags but you could build buildings close to any point there were and the buildings could take over points...

    I don't recall if structure could capture points.
