Some overall
things to keep in mind regarding attacking:
Pre-Attack Stage
- Scout your target before an attack.
Look for the structures they're building, the type of units they
have, and where they are trying to expand..

Recon
- Surprise the enemy with your
attack.
Think of what the
enemy will do to stop your attack; catch the enemy off guard. If you have
an idea what the enemy might attempt to counter with, find something to
counter that.
- Determine which
units are best suited attacking enemy defenses; attack units that cannot
counter attack when the opportunity arises.
- Have a mix of armies.
The more of a mix you have, the more bases you cover; you will be more prepared
for unexpected counter attacks.
- Start attacking when you get a good
sized group of units.
The longer you wait the longer
he will have time to get ready for it.
During an Attack
- Attack as many
times as possible; keep the pressure on.
- Expand while you attack.
Keep the enemy too busy to worry about attacking
your expansions or starting any new ones.

Method of Attack:
- Double team the most damaging units as much as possible to kill them
quicker.
Try to outnumber the attack/counter attack ratio by 3 to 1 (this does depend
on circumstances).
- Know when to retreat; know when to cut
your losses and run.
Targets:
- Miners!:
Stopping the enemies income always has a crippling effect.
- All enemy expansions.
Keep the enemy from expanding to cripple their economy. If you
see the enemy constructing a base without first building a defense,
attack them after they've spent the money for it. Take every
opportunity to make them waste money.
- Defensive structures.
- Supply "Farm" structures.
- Detection units.
- Spell casters.
- Enemy bases (when you know you can
win or at least cripple their economy).
- Enemy outposts.
- Enemy recon units.
