A little harder variation of previous game, but with particles. #GoodLuck
Hint 1:
Spoiler
Under 2 ROTARY SHIPs at the right - totems!
Hint 2:
Spoiler
To reach TOTEMs very useful NEEDLESHIPs and OMNI.
Good luck! :)
Please mention any totems in-game or make them visible. Though their presence can be inferred from the unlatheable mire spawner on metal.
Ships are entirely unnecessary, save the HQ. This map does make it clear that Omnis cannot fire "upward" at particles or ships, though mire of any elevation can be targeted (even through/past ridges). Miring metallic land in such quantity is not a trick I would reuse, though a small (one-Omni) puzzle might find it helpful.
