Hints and solution[]
General hints and tips[]
| + Show hints |
| Don't get breached after the 1st turn. |
| It's not necessary to build more Tarsiers. |
| Perforators, Engineers, Nitrocybes, and Rhinos that have attacked twice are more efficient defense than Husks or Rhinos that have not attacked. |
| If you'll be destroying some of the urban sentries, you don't need to defend against all of them. |
Solution[]
When shield is down, click every unit unless otherwise noted. When shield is up, only click drones.
