I am really missing something here.
Started bottom left, attacking up, and building power grid along the bottom to the right.
Took 17+ minutes to take out the targets in the upper left, yet four of you finished the whole thing in under 20 minutes.

Any suggestions or do I just need more practice?
::)

Thanks,
H

Just need to pull your socks up H!

I went the same, up the left and then along the top. I am looking at Warrens score and now thinking going up all the legs at once would be better!

Doggone it!
I lost my socks in a poker game.
Let me go find some more and give it another go.

Thanks for the response,

so i went with taking the whole bottom third with collectors, setting up mortars and cannons in the lowland areas.  mortars are very useful in keeping digitalis under control when it is in thin strips, and a couple of cannons per "channel" was enough to keep the collectors and reactors safe.

once you have a range upgrade on the mortars keep the runners far enough back to stop them stunning your units.

then more power, large groups of strafers at the most powerful emitters and some smaller groups to hit the other emitters and suppress the digi and you are laughing.

guppies and the singularity will help with the clean up.  i attacked from the top left and right simultaneously but i think perhaps a single attack might be faster...  worth a replay to find out anyway!  8)

Thanks for the thoughts.
This might be just one of those maps that I won't be able to play well.
Good thing there are so many that I haven't tried yet.
Back to the maps of yesteryear.
Thanks,
H
