Round and round the particles go... a bit of a slugfest and certainly a time consumer. Not everyone's style

Wow. How do you get one of the 4 center emitters without sacrificing your entire fleet?

Wow, indeed. I think this one takes some patience.

I waited until I'd built every ship available, piled them all in the lower-left corner then massed them all together by overlapping them and kept everything in the center until stuff died. Be sure to set your lathes to target emitters first, then take out the mine & other things.

I think I lost maybe half my fleet in the process, so not the entire fleet.  ;D  >flexes<

Not really my kind of mission, but I do feel like it is very well designed. The ships are very useful and everything is definitely manageable. Tough mission!

And even though it's not my favorite kind of mission, I must say that I did enjoy it. Mainly because of the challenge it presents - well done!

Thanks for the mission!  ;D ;D
