#3790 : Naval Incursion

Welcome admiral. We have finished production of our Creeper assautling Destroyers. However, due to their very recent introduction to service, you will not have access to any missiles on said destroyers, leaving only their cannon for combat.

These Destroyers are not meant to be the lone ship on the battlefield but observing their performance on their own will provide valuable data.

Go clean up the islands, it will be the first time these Destroyers faced real action and their performance will be reviewed as such. Good luck.

If you are here to make a comment about the Destroyers having an issue. I am aware of many issues they have. This was a bit of a proof of concept mission for units that actively refuse to go up in terrain height.

After like an hour of retrying, I got all the spawners and units, except 3 remaining shuttle box units. No mission complete for me yet

This is a hard map, but pretty cool

Would be interesting to see how it's supposed to be done

would be nice if they were supported by a couple of actual close range units. it feels like if you dont beat this really fast you are in for a massive slog with lots and lots of micro managing. After a couple of restarts I ended up going straight for the blob nest after taking out a couple of the ocean emitters, then after trying and failing to get to the skimmer island, I retreated and started going after the emitters on the south side. Then the ocean is up to 2 or 3 depth, which is enough to overwhelm the ships, so I tried retreating up to the starting corner to push back along the west and bottom edges, but keep losing ships to skimmers. I dont think I'm beating this one. The lack of punch to the ships feels deliberate but also unbalanced too much in the creeper's favor.

Originally you were going to have VAU Fighters support but I found that would break the map a lot.
-And I did not have enough remaining sanity to make a 2nd naval unit for close range.

Totally fair, the naval units are extremely cool already
