HOW TO PLAY IT

Key timing: Shipyard by 3:11

  1. Take mex and wind, start bot lab first for early defence.
  2. Finish bot lab, then build shipyard in the cove.
  3. Push first submarine out to contest the sea.
  4. Add destroyer as the main contesting force.
  5. Transition into geothermal plant and advanced metal extractor.
