Nice playthrough! As the title of this map suggests, there are many choices here so it's hard to decide on the most optimal path. There were a few important differences in our runs I noticed though:

Spoiler

All in all I only had to build 1 additional weapon, the pre-built weapons were mostly sufficient to accomplish the goals. First of all, you committed several weapons to guard the nullifier for the south emitter. With careful planning and placement you can actually nullify that emitter with no weapons needed for protection at all.

Your attack position on the other 4 nullifiers was great, but if you position your weapons more carefully for the attack you can clear the zone for both nullfiers more quickly so you won't have to delay the nullifier on the final 2 emitters. Ideally you want to blitz all 4 of these emitters as soon as the "free nullifier" in the south is finished.
