Another Sleeper Map, but brutal. This map has lots of Emitters, Spores and 2 Runners Nest. Almost all of the weapons are scattered in the world, better pick them up. Good Luck and have fun! #SleeperMap #Brutal
Brutal? I simply marched across the map as usual.
As I was preparing to attack the center the sleeper moved up, I built a pedestal on a PZ and put a sniper on it. While the sleeper eventually moved it moved to a spot still in range.
I really find it hard to like sleeper maps as they all require the exact same strategy, build snipers, upgrade range, shoot sleeper. All the other units make no difference at all as you don't have to address them.
If you want to make a brutal Sleeper disable Bertha and Thor and put the shiper tech as a pick up in the hardest to reach spot on the map and ensure it cannot be collected early. You will then have to take on a lot of the regular units plus the sleeper in order to get to the tech or fight the sleeper by other means.

I once got a sleeper kill with beams.
