Your brood sister's colony is very brave and enthusiastic but not very smart, you'll want to keep them out of trouble.

Objectives

• Eliminate all enemies.

• Keep both queens alive.

Settings

A wood ant colony must keep an ally colony from getting in trouble.

You only have access to rapid-fire shooters.

Non-player colony

The ally wood ant colony only has access to rapid-fire shooters.

The ally colony will move to designated locations on the map in a strict order. It doesn't respond when the queen is in danger. You will be alerted on the minimaps when it chooses a new location.

It comes to help you only once throughout the entire mission. This is a scripted event.

Notable enemies

Enemies are on the same side and are hostile to the ants.

Woodworms, woodlice and devil's coach horse beetles live in your nests.

Surface enemies will engage the ally colony and invade its nest at designated time. They will invade your nest if you attack them first.

The first, the fourth and the fifthteenth enemy group remain in their territories. The second enemy group will invade your nest without being attacked first.

Trivia

• This level was originally called Brood Sisters during development. It was later changed to emphasize the amount of attention the ally colony needs.

• John decided to keep the uber hermit crab in after some viewers suggested it as a joke.
