My first post!

 

I just reached Rank 15, and since I've been hearing about all these no-wall strategies using the Commander Hero, I figured I might as well give it a shot.

 

...and I died in the first ten minutes. On Easy Mode. Whoop-de-doo.  :unsure:

 

So I'm clearly missing something. Could anyone give me some pointers on winning with a no-wall strategy, or at least using the Commander properly? He seems like such a fun hero, and I'd hate to miss out on using him well.

To make that work, you have to use paratroopers to tank the enemies for the most part.

I'm not sure about this, but I think having Elemental Stone is pretty much a requirement as well.

 

Also, I wouldn't necessarily get used to this (as your main strategy or one you'd go back to often), as it's just about impossible to do no-walls with Commander in 6.44 [which isn't quite released yet in case you ask].

6.44 is going public pretty soon I would say and no walling isn't really going to be possible at all. Don't get used to it as Dwarf suggested

Ah, thank you both. I'll keep trying a few other things, but if Elemental Stone is needed, I guess it's a lost cause.

 

Onward to 6.44!

6.42 cdr paras are OP there is is possible.

also some units are free to train from merc camp.. with some effort you could rly mass them easily and make a wall of flesh..

Just mass Gladiators and with Commander, you will win easily even on nightmare.

With a bit of practice, I've been able to beat Mad mode with minimal walling (just enough to get Commander's Paratrooper ability to level 20). Nightmare mode next!

 

Although I don't get three lv7 mills until 5:00 left, so I guess my form still needs work.
