@jasondeegan Collectors don't do anything on the green terrain. The only way to get more energy out of collectors is to put them on gray terrain. Drones need to be manually targeted each time they recharge, otherwise they just sit there. There are no upgrades for singular buildings in this game series, because it's an RTS, not a tower defense game. Blasters are only good against light creeper, and are typically used to hold a line, while mortar towers are better for taking territory, and SAMs are there to protect from spores. Please play CW training Sim. It's a good way to learn how to play the CW games.

18 Sept is without a doubt the best map generated so far. I was starting to wonder if there was a map that was truly difficult. Because the maps are usually fairly easy I set myself extra challenges such as don't move Odin city but I can't complete this map unless I move the city. The bluesummer technique works well but I can't help feeling it's exploiting a weakness in the game.

If you're only here for the BoTD, I think the May 15th, 14th and 12th maps are the easiest currently available. My top tip = move the city. Click it and you can put it in a more suitable, safe position and build up from there.

@Pedro: You do know that you can turn off the generation of totem packets, right? Try clicking the green orb on Odin City.

What does RFI stand for anyway? NBM I could figure out that it's no base move, but RFI?
I tend to not bother with speed runs either, only when it's a too easy map. Didn't take the win on today's map (9/15) till I had blasters set up to prevent more creepers spawning.

I don't go for speedruns because there's something deeply satisfying with dominating the crap out of the creepers. I'll purposely avoid connecting the totems just so I can fill up the screen with reactors, storages, and speed.

So this is it! Jan 12 2021, Flash blocked. No more Creeper on Kong. I'll probably check back here for the comment section. Maybe some of you will report here on your progress in the offline version at bluemaxima.org (see my other comment). Until Kong in its entirety dies as well. Feels weird, this day, and sad. Crazy times anyway.

so, we arrive on a new world. We fight through the desperate start as we race the creeper to establish defenses. We push the creeper back, take over the map, and force the creeper to hide in its little corners. Then, we leave our safe, fortified world to go to a completely new one where the creeper will try to annihilate us...

kennycjr: About once a year I'll delve into the Survival arena. It's my least favorite way to play the game, but has its own rewards. Thanks for the comments.

UgAhgItHurts: The main acronym used is RFI (Room For Improvement). Sometimes LTP or FTP (Lowest or Fastest Time Possible) comes up. Of course anything by MTargaryen should be ignored. As long as you're having fun, you're playing correctly.

12/10 84:51 seemed like it'd be interesting as an ocean challenge, not really so hard at all. So I started it again and bumped up to survival. About 10 minutes into it I started to wonder how much longer I could even survive, at 15 minutes I realized I might actually be able to win, and did. Definitely hafta say that was the most challenging game I've played. Did nicely for my stats too, killed nearly 800k creeper, nearly tripling my previous accumulated total. Didn't think to check my totals for reactors or mortars built, but I sure built a ton, and more relays than I've ever done before.

Quoting LukeTheFish
“For some reason this game isn’t recording my progress on any badges. Any ideas?”
It wasn’t for me either, but I use a flash blocking add-on for firefox to get rid of annoying adds and things. I fixed it by allowing the kongregate "Konduit" .swf to run. One .swf is the game, Konduit in the top left corner (using Flashblock) I think is for the chat/stats/achievements – allowing it to run fixed it for me – hope it helps anyone else

@joebeats, try building a mortar ASAP, after transferring Odin over the plateau near the emitter... Build just 1-2 collectors, just to pick the upgrade (I chose to increase fire range)

And here's a game to play; whenever you see a troll post, instead of giving them feedback, find someone else nearby and give them a positive response (like upvotes, or a nice comment). And don't even say if it was because of the troll, or just you deciding to be nice; leave them guessing.

I've never had so much fun playing these games, it's so anticipating crazy waiting for the next day to arrive for the next mission. I wish there was a way to play earlier missions so I can keep playing. I just love the diverse challenges given to overcome each mission.

I wish i could watch everything be destroyed after leaving through the portal, just to see how long it lasts and how it fails.

Today I got to all three teleporter things pretty easily. But I decided there was too much creeper laying around. So I spent another 10 minutes wiping out all the creeper before I left

In the description it says that odin city may be lost but history will remeber your valient stand. If odin city is humanity's last hope for survival, how exactly will anyone remeber anything.

I do not really understand what the upcoming end of adobe flash means, will this still work or is there another page with an HTML5 wrapper that I should start using? (Unrelated, are there pages with HTML5 rappers singing about tags and stuff? ;)

If there could be a particular day in the week, no matter which one, when the upcoming map was dificultier - isn't that a good idea? I mean the game is great but after few maps there is nothing that could surprise you or challenge you..
