I have completed the campaign and the bonus level.
But I didnt got the 2nd achievement, too.
Tactics:
Be as offensive as you can.
Destroy all bases first. then you have won xD

i just beat level 4 on hard. it is certainly possible. the way notled adds and clarifies to RadarKat's strategy really helped me. the glitch is that I know have been level 4 and level 5 on hard but no check marks. I AM connected to chat.

people who are saying that level 4 is impossible...
Cammander, you say that you had to wait for three hours and you still had no attack opportunities. That just shows you are about as effective as General Mcclellan of the Union during the civil war, who lacked the balls to make even the most basic of attacks.
Venture, the computer never stops producing spiders, but it does slow down after a while.
renaisauce, you can't stop the money. When there is a lull, you move, and don't retreat. Use your tanks to knock out the spiders until you can move the mortar next to the factory.
and Tiza, you're just stupid, too stupid to strategize.

Yeah, I can get a lull for one turn, but the lull isn't long enough to get both the rocket and artillery across in one piece, much less camp out long enough to take out the factory. Is there a way to stop the money from coming in?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Yep, it's not picking up the hard achievment. At least not for me. It gave a check mark to everything but the last level.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i tried that and it didnt even skip producing a spider tank for even one turn that was for 3 hours before i got too bored to continue

::cammanderWho:
you have to do what RadarKat said.
Move all of your forces to the bottom of the screen, putting the rocket truck in the bottom corner, with the mortar truck in front of it. Both should be able to target the closest mountain. The spider tanks will come across the bottom, and you can take them out one by one, on that mountain. Once the enemy's money gets low, his spider spawning will reduce. You should be able to make a break for it, during the lull (after desroying the barriers with your tanks).

level 4 on hard not working for me either. I stay in the left hand side bottom of screen and they never run out of money, they just keep spamming spiders nonstop.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The way to beat level 4 on hard is to bring your artillery towards the bottom of the screen on the left hand side, have all your other pieces around it and then wait until the other side is low on money and then you can advance.

heyyy no fair I couldnt use jammer trucks as the Akadians so why can they?
@bobsacks, if you send a battlecruiser up each side of the river their warmachines are too stupid to avoid the ranged attack so its an easy win

It's a good game, but I've had it hang 2-3 times now, which is extremely annoying considering how long it takes to beat a level on hard. 3/5. Without crashes I would give it 5/5.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i thought the levels were pretty balanced, a bit easy imo...
my gripes are technical tho, it crashed a lot and the save function doesn't work..
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i can't get past level 4 on hard, it glitches an unlimited amount of spider tanks and i can't bring any artillery past a certain point...

Saving worked for me, but I found it's a one-time thing - once you load the save file, it erases it, so there's no going back to a save file.

@bobsacks, if you're playing on normal, it's best to knock out the hunters first, since if they're gone, your planes and subs will be invincible. On hard, same applies, but you need to play with careful strategy.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
cripsy, it's supposed to be like that. It's the AI's way of making up for it's total lack of strategic ability. By rights, Hard should be labeled "normal"
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Hard is just unbalanced! One hit from any enemy kills anyone of my guys but takes minimum of two for them...I like strategy games and I can beat them all but this is just not right...3/5
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I love these games! The only issue I had with this version was that the hard missions get easier as you play them!! After level 4, nothing challenged me really all that much. Make a super super hard campaign, kind of like the legendary Command & Conquer Covert Ops from back in the day.
