Our hero discovers a powerful Ticon military ship in his home galaxy will he be able to capture it? Find out in episode 3.I understand that the grammar isn't that great but this map has been a long time coming.I had intended this map to be alot harder than it is.It was so hard I couldn't complete it.I spent 6 hours trying to but it was impossible to get a foothold, now its easier.I hope you enjoy playing and let the thor class ships be your friend forever.Have fun and as always please comment.

I forgot to change space battle to episode 2.Also that was 6 hours of watching tv and other stuff while waiting on the only thor with no totems to build and 2 of those hours was spent getting a foothold before I gave up.

Wow! That was a ton of work on your part to construct this.
Frankly, I was overwhelmed by the size and complexity - and after parking the Thors to get fully charged...I forgot about them until right at the end. Dumb move on my part.

My personal preference is for smaller games and choosing my own options for what I build. I think a lot of players will enjoy this fight and will appreciate the work you put into it.

Thanks,
H

Thanks for the hint.  ;)

I found if I concentrated ALL my berthas, strafers, and bombers on one spot (Actually I spread the bertha aim points a little bit) I could knock a hole in the deep creep big enough for a guppy and a nullifier. (For the inhibitor or stronger emitters I had to back that up with a singularity shot or 4 to pull more creep away from the build point.)

Wasn't really that hard after I gave up on the idea of a frontal assault.  I charged up all 4 Thors and pile everything (thors, berthas, straifers, and bombers right behind the whatchamacallit.  dropped a nulifier and a couple of guppies and boom.  Then I had to continue playing until the map was clean cuz you just can't leave that much creeper lying around. :)

I did this map using the forge blackhole attack. Very powerful when all 3 titans combined.
