Desc:
In our haste to conquer this sector, we have forgotten to bring Lathing vessels. Luckily, the Victor's cross possesses one. Protect the shipyard. And don't lose your HQ.
Three crows make a murder.
Not as hard as I first thought.
Spoiler
Start at the middle, work your way to the right with HQ while building your fleet near the middle.
Don't build that "deadnought" (sic), you don't need it, it's just a big energy sink. The thing wasn't even halfway done when I cleared the map.
The lack of lathe ship isn't much of a problem, in fact you could probably get everything done with HQ if you time it right. Or just wait for that big allied ship with lathe and charge along (or not, it's tough enough to get the job done on its own).

Are you playing in Beta 1.0.2b/c? The particle health should be easy = 3, medium = 10, hard = 30. A single hard particle should destroy your HQ. (Hard particles are found in the left emitter)
That version only recently became the main, Sorrontis.
Releasing maps from the beta thread is not advised, as they are probably broken in the main version (for one reason or another).

Yeah, I realized it after I pressed "upload."
EDIT: I've asked to remove it, we'll see what he does :)
Probably it will stay, as the update has been pushed out.
