Primary objectives:
- Eliminate all of the enemy forces on the map.
Secondary objectives:
- Build four turrets of any type.
- Secure two Fabrication Matrixes.
- Develop an economy technology.
First of all, build a refinery and a factory. Ignore the enemy units roaming around, for the time being, because they will not attack. Apart from that, they are scouts so, damage that they deal is low. Build several light units and eliminate the enemy. In the meantime, build a silo and develop any upgrade. Also start building turrets. The enemy attacks will be weak so, it does not matter where you put them.
Form an army of, at least, fifteen units and head Eastwards. At the shipwreck, you find the first Fabrication Matrix [2], defended by the Mother Goo. After you get it, you will be able to build factories Tank Attachment.
Seize the opportunity, which will allow you to build Gladiuses. In the meantime, build the second, and then the third factory. To obtain more resources, mine for them near the shipwreck. You should have enough resources to make the three factories work continuously. Also, remember to build turrets to the North of the base. It is possible that the enemy will arrive over the hill and attack you from the North.
Increase your army to 30 units and head North, along the only path. On your way, you will encounter some resistance. At the next deposit, you encounter the second Mother Goo [3]. Eliminate it and head Westwards.
In the Northern part of the map, at the river, there is the second Fabrication Matrix [4], thanks to which you can build an Artillery Attachment.
At the last resource deposit, you find another Mother Goo [5]. Gather a big army and destroy it, as soon as possible. Otherwise, the unit retreats and you will have to follow it. Also, it is possible that the Mother builds another one, under way, which heads then towards your base.
It is turrets that should deal with the attack, then. Make sure that there is a mine within reach, If not, move several Gladiuses over there. After you have destroyed all of the Mother Goos, and Goo units, the mission should end in success.
