how the heck is the “penny pincher” achievement even possible against a Heroic AI? are we only allowed to make 10 squads at all or we can only have 10 squads out at any time? im confused?

Hey Ricardo, you can do this easily. Just play as the Prophet vs. Cutter on Deathmatch on Beasley map idk the name, but once the game starts build a temple, a shield and the rest supply pads, take your ghost and send him directly to a spot where you can build another base without having to kill rebels, then once that base is complete begin make a Scarab (By this time you should have the Prophet planet-side. Once you have the Prophet and the Scarab charge toward Cutter’s base, dont worry with the rebels, you will be able to destroy the base easily, be sure to use the Prophet’s Cleansing ability, If the AI has another base(s) the won’t be that well constructed yet giving you an easy win.

Chasms is a great map to do this on you can also get the Big als Scooter achievement here with ease to, using the same method I just warthog rushed the guy, but a few scarabs would work great

Just do a deathmatch on a 1v1 map with you being Cutter, and your opposing AI being Forge. Then, when the match starts, you immediately send your warthog to the opposing base and spawn 9 more warthogs and set the rally point to behind his base. When your warthog gets to his base, destroy the building he is trying to build and destroy his base. Have the other warthogs help until the base is destroyed. Then you play cat and mouse with his warthog. Easy as making pie! Plus, two achievements in one! (Big Al’s Scooter and Penny Pincher)

What I did, is I got the ‘Penny Pincher’, and the ‘Big Als Scooter’ achievements both in one game by going on 1 on 1 against a Heroic AI in the Deathmatch game mode, on the snow-filled 1 vs 1 map with any UNSC leader, and making the enemy Sergeant Forge. When you get into the game, you first send your warthog to the enemy base and attack whatever building the enemy starts building first, and then set your global rally point at the enemy’s base (you can do this by double-clicking the left thumbstick). You then go back to your base, and build supply pads, and build ONLY 9 warthogs to join your other warthog. As they go to your enemy’s base, keep attacking the enemy’s buildings until you have about 5 or 6 warthogs, then attack their command center until their base dies. You will have to then go play cat-and-mouse with the enemy’s warthog, and then defeating that and the rest of the enemy’s units will finish the game.
P.S. The enemy will train weak units to try to retaliate, and you will want to destroy them if they start attacking your warthogs.
I got the ‘Walk-Off Winner’ achievement by destroying the last units on the advanced tutorial with The Prophet of Regret’s Beam of Cleansing.
