Tip: Use formation move hotkey like your life depends on it.
Lay out almost everything in advance, and turn things off until you need to build.
7 or 8 BLIMPS minimum. And a shitload of TERPS.

This was fun, got me to think a bit more than usual.

Terps aren't needed - only a few for the erns.
Tons of airships. 8 is minimum to take care of any threat.
Ended up having around 30 of them before finishing.

Was there an indicator that there is a time limit ahead of all my nullifies exploding?  I had no idea, kept trying to regroup and retake territory and it finally occurred to me that the nullifies were just exploding by themselves.

Well, knowing that I had a time limit I had another go. Wasted a lot less time with Terps,. and just ran for it. Pretty cool really. Thanks for a cool map!

Now at least I will notice that time limit. Don't know how I missed it, I guess I'd just not noticed one before.
