You must gather your weapons to fight this battle. Use your resources wisely and your enemy will fall beneath your feet. If all else fails, you can call upon the mighty thor... However, everything comes at a price.

Very rare that I don't bother to finish a map but this is tedious, why limit the fire rate and range? 3 of 4 upgrades can be collected easily at the start but with no immediate PZs it is a very slow start and it does not speed up much once you get your first PZ!

It would improve this map a lot if there was some resources or tech in each corner so you had some reward for each slow battle out, at the moment it is just a slog. Sorry to be harsh  :-\

It didn't feel too slow to me, but small maps like this are easy to run at 10x speed and it really looks funny when 30 mortars are firing that fast. In actual time, the map took about 8 minutes, including pausing during set-up time.

Spoiler

I grabbed the ore mine then headed for the mortar and built a bridge across using collectors for power and relays to go from high point to high point. After I had enough reactors built, I built close to 30 mortars and pushed almost all of them with sprayers to the left side (not sure why... I wasn't thinking about getting the blaster tech I guess).
