Last portion of "Good Advice" mission on Titan
I was able to make it through the dreams and the underworld, to where you assault atlantis. I am getting completely slaughtered no matter what I do though. Am I supposed to rush for their center immediately? I try to build up but I always get swarmed under after about 10 minutes from the fully upgraded units. I collect all the relics early and build a fortress quick, but nothing lasts long againt the AI units. What is the strategy here?

None of the god powers are very helpful in fights except for pigs, which is expensive and random. Am I missing something?

I'm not sure if it is a bug but in my menu I can now skip this mission and go on to the next, despite never finishing.

Built catapults and be aggressive with them - they annihilate the statues, watch towers, fortresses and can even snipe some production buildings without even entering the walls.

There's no reason to sit back and defend because the waves are very chunky and only get worse. Never fight the statues straight-up, leave that to your catapults. You get a free Earthquake which you can either use to break open an entrance or destroy production buildings that you don't want to deal with - I prefer the latter myself but its your choice.

If you want to cheese it, you can actually land an army on an "island" near the back of the base via sea, and snipe the wonder either by ships in the pond you reach from there or via catapults.

I got all the relics and spammed Cyclopes and heroes to defend, while later using Hades’ crossbows to attack their statues and buildings. I kept my economy stable and defended the beach town center until I could mass-produce Cyclopes to overwhelm their base. A well-placed earthquake on their main base crippled their troop production. I sent some units to the northern corner to raid their backline town center and economy, then finished their wonder. The hardest part was preventing my units from being auto-kited to their statues.

Honestly, for any mission on Titan difficulty that I struggled with, the solution boiled down to focusing on favor and economy, then spamming as many of one type of myth unit as possible. This almost always worked, no matter how many waves they sent, unless it was a very specific mission where an even better strategy could cheese the win.

You can defend indefinitely by spamming hoplites and using all the heroes. After that you can use siege to destroy the statues so you have some room to maneuver around.

You can build ships and destroy the dock and go up the hill on the east side of the harbour. Build a fortress and make petrobs and build another dock to transport the petrobs to the other northern side of the river. From there you can destroy the wonder without disruption. Then you just need to activate the "destroy wonder" quest by landing at the flag area. Victory.
