Has anyone been successful in a 2 human vs 2 computer opponent game of
armor alley? If so, how do you do it? We have been trying without
success for months (in the meantime, one of us has completed level 10
of the single player game, the others are on level 8 and 6).

We seem to do well enough in dogfights, but every game is the same. We
immediately take over almost the entire length of the field. Then we
send convoy after convoy (tanks, missles, and vans) without success.
It seems that if we destroy the computer, he comes back fully armed
and eventually destroys all the vans. If we don't destroy the
computer, he commits some sort suicide and then comes back and kills
the vans (although we haven't spent so much time on this second idea).
