Encounter an unkown ship....
Rush or die.
The small interdependent landmass/cannon/mine/emitter structures are nice, but they are easily captured. I suggest placing the Emitter further back, perhaps swapped with the Mine, so that they can only be easily taken from behind.
The map feels one-dimensional, essentially a race to take out the opposing ship. Easiest way to win is to warp the HQ out, take out the ship spawner, then warp out again, and Omni-rush the now-defended landmasses. It's also possible to sacrifice some time, and warp the HQ in over the bridge of the opposing ship. This is, however, a kill-or-cure style of remedy.
