The only available weapon is the strafer, but you'll have to reach it first. Get the forge soon and choose the upgrades carefully to make the most out of your dire situation. #LimitedTech

There's an ore patch in the bottom right that's on uneven ground and is inaccessible- this map is literally unplayable!

Maybe if you're cool enough you can go for the bottom left to start with but I just hung out near the middleish totem.  Ascending command nodes to spread anticreeper around is a neat gimmick

Some of the ore deposits may be unusable, but there are enough to get started and more than enough to beat the map.

Spoiler

I used "anticreeper rain" until I could use the eather and ore on the centre right, then I went on with the anticreeper until I could position a relay on the top right and get the strafer. The top right was the first emitter I nullified, but I suppose there are different strategies to beat the map.

I know, I was just being dumb for fun.  As for the map-

Spoiler

You can actually get the strafer tech at the very start.  A collector leading to a collector on the high ground gives you just barely enough time to snag it
