Do-able, but prep time insufficient

I sorta took Phillip’s route (I don’t read reviews before I play).

With no medkits, I can’t see a way for *me* to win this outside. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t better players who can do it–as is apparent by WhiteKite and Jasper’s comments.

If there were more than 1 minute to prepare, I might try it the hard way.

Defend base map – my favorite. Pretty entertaining. Would be nice to have more than 1 min to prepare the defense

this “sunshine” is annoying. besides that there is nothing bad or good to say.

I enjoyed this. The challenge is to site the turrets correctly (DO NOT put them in the room as seen in images 5 & 6;
I did at first and it is VERY boring). Isn’t crossfire so efficient?!!. Once you have your turret strategy sorted out, you can enjoy the map more.
Make sure you have some spare time mind. Getting rid of 600 antlions takes a while!

Like many maps of this genre, it gets tedious very quickly. Sometimes an author manages to make a map like this that encourages you to try different techniques, biut not this one.

I can’t say much more than that because it really is a simple map.

SPOILER
I just put all my turrets inside and various angles and enticed the antlions to come near the doorway. Occassionalkly I took a turret outside and ran around.
