Start that kinda works:

-1) Keep your HQ safe - don't let it get destroyed, as it keeps your omni techs offline for 20 seconds. That can be counterproductive.
0) Techs - omni reactors and cannons, mine and land production, and defense struc. Omnis and production are obvious choices, struc gives you lathe on mines and it can speed up getting omnis in the beginning.
1) Spawn HQ next to center energy source. Pick omnis and place them on the piece of land on the left of energy source. You need to build at least about 4-5, more is better.
2) After central mine dies to particles, move HQ to left enegry source. Park HQ somewhere safe - as far from roaming enemy ships as you can. HQ will take occasional hit from stray enemy shots, that's annoying, but you can't do anything.
3) Build omnis in space, land them on unmired land, get more omnis. You need to land omnis on the same piece of connected land - ignore small unconnected islands.
4) Once you get 13 omnis (all you can get from this big connected piece of land), they will eventually mire all connected land and blow up enemy mire spawner, and spawner will leave energy source. I recommend sneaking HQ to capture it and use it to build omins next to fast-firing emitter. You'll need three omnis to take out this emitter.

Promising map, had to give it a low rating for making the start a big fat unforgiving mystery.

Wasted far too much starting over and over at different locations, not even sure if my opening was possible.

That is not fun, its a waste of time and an exercise in frustration. You at the least need to make it obvious what a viable starting point is.

This is "puzzle" game  and in previous post I attached screenshots how to start:
