Objectives

  • Eliminate the enemy colony.


Settings

Your gene-thief ant colony must fight another gen-thief ant colony in an arena.

Eggs are automatically spawned for free on available brood tiles. The inbetween time starts at 25 seconds and increases by 1 second after each spawn.

You receive food every 30 seconds until storage is full. Food income is calculated based on the following formula.

Food income = 35 + 0.01 x combat score

Food income increases when your colony is taking control of the halfway point.

Food income (bonus) = (35 + 0.01 x combat score) * 1.1 + 2

Your ants are automatically put in the first pheromone group after the respective brood tiles are built. Pheromone markers are fixed in the enemy nest. You can only toggle attacking and reviving.

You have 37 level 3 food storage tiles at the start of the mission. You can't delete them. You can only build brood tiles and highway tiles.

You have access to anesthetist Matabele ant medics, Matabele ant soldiers, bullet ant soldier, driver ant workers, medium driver ant soldiers, large driver ant soldiers, African stink ant soldiers, termite minor soldiers, termite major soldiers. You don't have access to actual workers.

The mission uses custom-game-mode stats.


Non-player colony

The enemy colony has access to the same units and uses the same mechanics as your colony.

Food income is calculated based on the following formula. The value of difficulty multiplier is 0.8/ 0.95/ 1/ 1.2/ 1.5.

Food income = (35 + 0.01 x combat score) x multiplier

Food income increases when the enemy colony is taking control of the halfway point.

Food income (bonus) = (35 + 0.01 x combat score) x multiplier x 1.1 + 2

The enemy colony randomly chooses a unit composition and the correponding nest design to build each game.
