Don't build anything, before all three drones have left the gateway [0:09].

strill trapped. i really wd like to say this's a good map

here's what i did
i built 3 shields attaching the upper left wall to take down the first 3 drones
then built a gun and take the beacon in the the bottom of the well while escape my base around to the bottom of the well.

but the surge of second wave always take down my gun, and there's no time to recover from it. >:(

You shouldn't attack the drones. Just run away in circles.

OK, I done the map in~~ haha~~

running away into the well while building defense gun is the only way out!

It seems to me that driving in a circle stupid drones very funny! :)

Step 1: move toward emitter
Step 2: set nullifier
Step 3: move in a square pattern to evade drones while nullifier prepares
Step 4: if you get hit by a drone but nullifier works, escape to far upper right, and build one blaster
Step 5: clean up any creeper, if any.

Good advice on not building anything before the drones have left - they won't know to avoid it.
My method was to

Spoiler

build 3 shields to block off the upper left of the tower. Then 2-3 more on the right after the first group is built.
Now you're moving right and down. Remove the block holding the Beacon tech and head inside the tower, building more shields to stop the creeper and drones down below by the beacon.
At this point you're out of places to put shields effectively. The goal here for me was to get safe inside the tower and get one blaster built. Then I just barely had time to build a couple reactors and a second blaster.
Once you've got 2 blasters built, keeping them as low and close to the creeper as possible, you should be able to keep building blasters and reactors. Once you've got three blasters going, you've got the game.

Seems like a whole lot of work. How long did it take you?

thanks guys, i could not have done it my way, taking the gateway and running was the only way i could get it done, and i bearly lived. i think 7 drones would be too hard. wont be able to take that much damage. thanks
