Galaxy 3

[good_dog4]

I'm having problems completing the final step/base in Galaxy 3. I've upgraded all the nodes and dont have enough resources to even touch the final base.

Is there a build order or suggestion someone can provide?

I'm assuming you're still sitting at 100 base fleet resources. If that's the case, you will likely have to max out the artifact upgrades, so the artifact nodes stop costing resources.

I didn't really have a problem killing it once I had the recommended Fleet Resources, which you get by Reinforcing at IIRC Sector 105.

some suggestions:

1) reinforce at a higher sector so you have more base fleet resources
2) beeline for the end and experiment with skipping unnecessary nodes, including the temp power amp nodes
3) redo each battle node and experiment to minimize the resources used (try to use cheaper and/or less ships, try different ship mods and positioning)
4) max out artifacts so the nodes don't cost resources

#2 - really? amp is not needed? what are they used for then, #3?

I'm assuming you've already gotten the one which reduces your in map fleet resource usage?

Here's the loadout I used:
Row 1: Corvette, nothing
Row 2: Corvette, nothing
Row 3: Cruiser, nothing
Row 4: Nothing, Frigate
Row 5: Frigate, Frigate

Modules:
Corvette: Nothing
Frigate: Armor module
Cruiser: Nothing

Require 80 fleet resources and the two temporary power amplifiers.
The base is long gone on my save but I just ran the battle and after dealing with the enemy ships I still have 3 corvettes, 3 or 4 frigates and two cruisers on the battlefield. That should be enough to deal some decent damage to the base.

The total amount of resources used being 309.41. I don't remember the cost for artifacts but expect something between 400 and 500 total.
