Desc:
small energy range, custom ships with a twist, make sure to use every ship, even your hq at somepoint. losing your hq will not result in defeat fyi kinda hard
Im not able to get past the first power zone.
I cannot cap the island. I have no access to blue particles, and with only 1 omni, I can't turn the island blue faster than the red particles turn it red.
Since I cant get the island, I have to go 1/3 the map to the next power zone and I run out of power by the time im there.
It's doable... You just need to use all the ships together.. as in the description.
Took me a while to work it out - look forward to the next installment:)
Yeah. Once you know the trick this map is pretty good.
Remember.
Spoiler
You don't lose if the Command ship goes down. Abuse that to backdoor the right side when the red particle's cap.

you might have to drop your omni let it mire a bit and let it retreat for a bit to repair. no simple afk-nobrain-omnidrops ;)

well did not thought about that method, i did brute force my way through the top with hauler and marauder sacrifices but first had to clear up the plasma with the piguppy

you capture the islnad just fine. you have to make the cannons on hq and the other ships focus land. the lasers can deal with the particle long enough to sneak in an omni and if you then take out the mire spawner your good.
the backdooring also worked better then i expected.
