Amon is determined to destroy Sgt. Hammer’s Fortress at all costs. Explosions rock the compound as nukes rain from above and Amon’s minions detonate themselves upon death. Do what you can to mitigate your own casualties as you take out the Void Thrashers.
Going Nuclear - Nukes are launched at random throughout the map.
Mutually Assured Destruction - Enemy Hybrid units detonate a Nuke upon death.
Self Destruction - Enemy units explode and deal damage to friendly player units upon death.
Mutually Assured Destruction detonates nukes after the Hybrids’ death animation, which is almost instantaneously, and deals the same damage as a regular nuke, depending on the size of the Hybrid.
The warning spot for nukes is the large targeting area. However, you only have 5 Blizzard seconds of warning before the nuke hits.
There is no indication on the minimap, nor is there a “Nuclear Launch Detected” sound, so babysitting your units is advisable.
The nuclear strikes begin at the very start of the map. They seem to be placed randomly, but there are only about 1 or 2 nuclear strikes at a time, even on Brutal.
The nukes CAN hit the side of your expansion.
A red circle will appear where Self-Destruction will occur.
Uhm… If you have Swann P2 or Karax P1 last week should be a joke.
This week is even more of a joke if you play Artanis mass dragoon.
Got it on first try on both NA and EU accounts.
Just pay attention to your army so it doesn’t get nuked and simply dance your goons around the big red circles and this brutation is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
What part of “LAST WEEK” you failed to recognize? Which was on the Temple, btw.
Person I was talking to complained about previous week being Brutal+1 and this week being Brutal+4 and how hard the previous mutation was. This week is much easier with Mass Dragoon Artanis and previous was trivial with Swann P2. Any further questions?
Ended up using Karax P2 for this… got it on the second try because on the first try I had a level 2 Alarak ally with a grand total of 39 kills. He built mostly supplicants and a few havocs and stalkers, then got that all nuked by not dodging the red circles. As hard as I tried I could not solo it, came close… but couldn’t do it.
Second try I had a P0 Tychus, and that run went a lot smoother, even though my build was less optimal that run. Got the bonus too. Unity barrier shined this game.
