As a beginner these rules of thumb are extremely helpful.
Some more questions from me:
What are some good army compositions for each faction/tech?
At what point in the game (both for 1v1 and large map team games) should I retreat my com to avoid getting sniped?
When and how to use tactical missile launchers? Are they worth it for sniping T2 mexes?
When should I go for a gun upgrade, when for T2?
