meh, it was a decent try, but the varros going to your base at the start were complicated but nothing hard. However the turrets were super anoying, insane rate of fire, range or one shot capabilities. I didnt enjoy that, i ended up just rushing lathes over and over again to slowly mire those turrets, after that they killed all the enemy ships by themselves,  so yeah.. that... not quite my tempo

I'd agree. A good attempt, but the balance of power is slightly tipped too far.

It was tricky to get a decent foot-hold, but I enjoyed that challenge at the start. I also managed to clear one of the turrets on the right, plus the set of three dopple spawners. Then I got bogged down with the remaining turrets which were, quite frankly, over-powered. Once I ran out of swear words (and believe me, I have a very deep well of them) I gave up on it.
