I have beaten the August 10th mission. It was 15 minutes of surviving on the skin of my teeth. If anybody wants to know how to beat it, move Odin City directly south and build an energy network immediately. Seal off the tiny crack with a blaster as soon as the creeper comes close to it. Build two bombers, one to supress the critical mass of creeper in the Southwest of the map. The other to bomb the creeper in the northwest as it will rush toward Odin city and the blasters will need covering fire. Then make a beeline toward the island in the middle of the map and move a mortar there. This will prevent the creeper from flowing over the ridge and completely overwhelming you. The blaster at the crack will not have to fire as much. Build a loot of reactors and then get the totems.
I just completed the tutorial mission on hard mode:) Took a few hours but it was nice. I apparently sent the enemy fleet running in fear. It had 3X the strength of mine. Just spam scouts and probes at the enemy planet with some bombers relaxing in the back line.
MOO. Man I remember that game. One of the best 4x out there. MOO 2 was my favorite. Nice to know you liked that game also. Lets see if your game can compete:)
This game trolls me so hard. I use dimensional rift. It pulls me in from the other side of the map. So I use my temporary invuln to not die and it sends me away from the battle.
@pkercraft999: This is because a ship was still in route to the port. The longest time reported for a ship to be out at sea is 20 days. They consistently try to go around the entire world. I also have the impossible badge. Look at Solprovider's strategy guide.
@Ends Of Ends. Wow, your method worked. I could not believe it. The game decided to troll me by giving me the harmless trait when I infected every country. My disease was less likely to kill people. Won on day 99 and I am serious. I was super tense watching the united stats population slide down to 0 and watching the days pass.
heh, the tutorial map AI takes into account you are doing a tutorial.
