Easily selecting units:
To easily select units, first select a group of units and press [CTRL] and a number from 0-9 to assign them to that number. Then, press the number you assigned them to again to select them.
Defend base with Americans:
To easily defend your base or another location while playing as the Americans, put six Rocket Soldiers and four Sniper inside a building. The rocket soldiers will take down vehicles and ships while the snipers will take out infantry.
Helicopter pilots always eject with Americans:
To eject from a falling helicopter(must be ranked veteran, elite, or heroic) while playing as the Americans, use the green drag-box to select the helicopter. The pilot should eject.
Two for one armies with GLA:
To be able to construct another armies installations, use Jarrem Kell to kill the driver of an USA or China Constuction Dozer. Then, send Jarrem or another soldier inside the Dozer.
Honors:

It can be found in “c:my documents” or “c:documents and settingsadministrator” in Windows XP. Change the Honors line to “Honors = 999999999999999”.

Allied artillery:
Use the Strategy Center’s Bombardment. It will be same as the Artillery. Note: If you shoot very close to the Strategy Center, it cannot fire.
Flying man:
Destroy one of the GLA’s assault trucks (Technicals) and the rebel in the back will go flying. Note: Sometimes the rebel can get hit when falling if there area lot of Technicals, however this is rare.
Launch two super weapons for the price of one:
This trick only works with the SCUD Storm. Build a SCUD Storm. Once you can fire it, click it once. Then, attack a target like you would with a regular unit. You will not hear any message that the SCUD Storm has been launched. You must wait for the first nine SCUDS to drop before you can fire it regularly.
Faster Particle Beam Uplink movement:
When using the US Particle Beam Uplink superweapon, keep clicking the area where you want the beam to go. Note: You must still have the blue Particle Beam crosshairs to do this. The beam’s movement will speed up. This is a very effective tactic against weak or damaged structures.
