Some Hints:

Spoiler
- first Energy:  3 Collectors, 4 Reactors
- 2 x guppy 2 eliminate 4-5 Sporetowers (micromanagement the Guppies)
- take the nearest Island in the west with 3 Pz's
[close]

I tried several different starts and didn't like any of them.
What did some of you do?
Thanks,

Indeed! Clearly great minds run in like channels.

I was trying to figure out that last line in the Spoiler, but don't think I did.

Just got round to this one, been looking forward to it for days. Didn't disappoint!  ;D

H - I did the same but built a forge a lot earlier and those bottom two guppies can take out a nest and the spore together. 2 for 1 special offer, roll up, roll up!!

Obvs then clear the island you are on and then go for those Berthas ASAP.

That's going to call for a replay.
Amazing how obvious somethings are - after - someone points them out to you.

One other really brilliant move I made was to let the Guppies sit there after they finished their assaults.
Not like I could have flown them down to the bottom left to generate some Aether, or anything.
:o

Thanks,
H

Schoolboy error H! Once all possible spores were down I had two guppies keeping that well fed!

Go ahead and rub it in.
I deserve it.
