Tough, but you can beat it!
Why is this described as "tough"?
The direct way, it takes 50 seconds.
The dumb brute force way "Berthas, masses of mortars, etc"...... it takes 1m55s
Yes, one can build a power network, plant some 200 Berthas, and have them firing in under 2 minutes.
Starting with oodles of power, megaspeed packets, and huge territory to build unlimited reactors is way too potent.
Tried this with restriction "no reactors, no Berthas, no Mortars": took 3m45s
hm ok, tried it with rules:
"Destroy all weapons at start"
May only build collector, reactor, neutralizer, strafer and bomber.
(note, not even beams allowed)
.....still easy, still took only 4m31.7s
Ah, finally a variant that is a bit more challenging:
Start: Delete all weapons. Delete Forge. NOT allowed to rebuild forge, ever.
....6m17.3
