Video game tips-RTS-Micromanagment

When in the course of a RTS game, there is an extremely important decision to make: To what level will you micromanage.

Micromanaging is an art. It is very easy to abuse into a bad habit. In every single RTS that I have ever played you will have the opportunity to MM. The true test of willpower is to resist the urge to over MM. Often if you study the playing habits of other players you will see certain patterns of debilitating habits. Often even more experienced players can become vulnerable to this odd desire. I know that it is satisfying to watch your troops outnumber and crush an unimportant enemy army, but if you are certain that you are not in a good position to be ambushed, than you are really wasting valuable time that could be spent queuing up more troops and/or preparing a second wave. You would be amazed to see the difference that some MM moderation can make.
