Wow, that was quite a battle. May be a bit tough for many palyers, def a hard map.

Spoiler

The top left two emitters and the bottom two are both flip emitters and can be easily taken.
The 4 little sqaures of land are for Omnis, use them!
I held the centre with the big fella supported by a couple of Wolfs. I sent everything else along the bottom edge, don't try to push up, just across until you can get omins on the island bottom right.
I used Cruisers as snow ploughs to get the omnis to the island. Once on the island you can take out 3 more emitters and the map starts to get easier.

Haha, I did the same but managed to lose my "Star Base" and it takes forever to rebuild, Also for all those that say Omni's are overpowered I must have lost 50 of them trying to get 1 piece of land.

Yeah, to take it over - you could lose 50. But you only need 4 to get each emitter, after which taking mid gets easier. Omni still OP. Ship with 6 lathes super OP, even if it's that slow :P

Wow i'm impressed, that you managed to survive there  :)
Anyhow i'm glad you liked it. Il try to make even more harder map next time  ;D

That was a battle and a half and I obviously missed some easier way of playing it!  Great map!

I don't think any more balance needs to be done at the moment,

But I still think the omnis are where they need to be at. They are extremely vulnerable when flying anywhere. Mine cannons, missiles, enemy structure and emergents can still kill them very easily.   Once landed if there are any particles hitting the land, an enemy mire or I believe even an enemy mine it takes a while with many destroyed before they get to mire a landing spot, For those map makers that feel they are overpowered then limit how many you have on a map but to nerf them imho in any way would throw off the balance unfavorably especially for those players that are at best mediocre. (yes I include myself in that category)

I have seen an Omni take multiple (depleted?) MK7 hits to the "face", flying, and survive...
