Warcraft II was an unusual game for the time because a large number of third-party utilities were written for it.

Strength in numbers is a key element in Strategy games like Warcraft 2. Also, go for the powerful units first. In battles on land, that would generally be the guard/cannon towers, catapults/ballistas, the paladin/ogre-magis, and the knight/ogres.
