Is it worth it to experiment with a superweapon that might backfire, if your enemy might already have it? Spoiler: Ticon says yes. Just in a safe way.
As far as I know there's no way you're destroying that missile ship even with the ERN. It creates too much energy to be starved to death, next time I put it in a map it's gonna have less energy generation so that it MIGHT be possible to destroy.
Mistake 2: ERN can be collected without having to remove contaminated ground. As you still need the Omni I don't care.
Pretty simple mission overall.
Yeah, you can destroy it but it takes a while. Suicide your HQ right on top of the ship's two reactors, then hit the other side. You might have to hit the first side again, or maybe even repeat this a couple of times if your aim is a bit off.
Once you kill the ship's reactors, it won't repair nearly as quickly and then you can finish it off. ;)
Great to see ya making PF maps too, Trickycorp! Thanks for the mission! ;D
