And there we go. Hard badge down.
Step 1. Start the mission by charging up your mana. Don't train any troops until you see an enemy closing in on you.
Step 2. Spam a squad of archers or anything ranged. Speed and numbers is what you're aiming for.
Step 2B. Occasionally throw in a tanky class like a swordsman or a fighter. These will act as good damage sponges as your horde of ranged fighters widdle down the enemies' forces.
Step 3. Follow your unites as they charge forward and replace any units when they fall. Spam the poison spell like crazy if they hit a difficult road block.
Repeat these steps and you'll have the hard badge in about an hour.
Mother...f*cker...Game got cleared after I was cleaning my browser history and cookies. That was at least 40 hours of slow grinding over months down the drain...Well I guess this is a hard trophy I won't be getting. It was fun, but it's going to be awhile till I feel up for replaying all the levels again...
What. A. Slog. I played long enough to get all the badges, but HOLY CRAP did I NOT enjoy that game. It's grindy, repetitive, clunky, and not all that fun to look at. From the beginning where I watched other racers slowly crawl off the starting line, leaving my lazy bum in the dust to the very end where my stiffly animated racer zipped right past the finish line in seconds, the whole thing was so slow and tedious.
FINALLY! That badge has been haunting me for years! Like others have said: the key is to juggle the huge asteroid as long as you can. While that's on screen, no other asteroid will spawn. For better control over your juggle, try avoiding picking up any mini-turrets. It might also be best to put some music or a video that's about 10 minutes long to help you keep count.
So....anyone else having issues with the game loading? The play button works just fine, the opening logos play just fine, but then after that the screen's just...black. Am I missing something here? Is the game just dead because of age?
That "End Now" button at the end of every hole has finally won me over. I'm ending it now. I have two of three badges. That's all I'm going to bother getting. It was a ballache to get this far. I'm done.

Given how this game is almost nine years old, it's very unlikely they'll be changing much. However, lockpicking is incredibly easy. You hold and release the 'W' key and listen for a faint click sound as the selected pin goes up all the way and then all the way down. It will click somewhere in between and all you have to do is hold and release 'W' again and then press 'D' at the point of the click.
"Error Connecting To Server. Please Try Again" I've tried multiple times throughout this past week to get this game to connect to a server with no luck. I don't know why a game like this would need to connect to anything other than Kongregate itself, but I can only assume that the server has long since been converted into space for another game and will never return. I'm just gonna remove this game from my Playlist and be done with it. A week of non-connecting is enough for me.
Man, I should just get the Hard Mode playthrough credit if I already went through Medium without removing items! I really don't want to go through all that over again for completionist sake.
The game has always been live and final. We'll eventually remove the beta tag. Right now it's just standing in for "game receiving constant live updates, bugs may occur."
I played the game for the final badge and not a second longer. Although I use the word "played" rather loosely. Since the character that allowed me to click on enemies was the weakest and quickly became obsolete as other characters evolved faster, I quickly removed him from my party in favor of more DPS. Removing that character revealed the true nature of this game. Its a freemium idler.
