Chapter One: Mission 3

[tk1912]

Is anyone else playing the campaign? Any hints for Mission 3 in Chapter One? The blobs are kicking my rear end and I can't seem to get past them.

i think i beat it on my second try.... i can't remember how i did it lol. i think i just went super agressive. i am pretty sure i went heavy blue and kept on breaking their bases. you don't want to let them get their base bonuses. you can do full defensive, you just have to make it 20 turns

You can go in two directions here. Either you go very aggressive and try to destroy them before they destroy you, but that's pretty tough sometimes. Generally, hiding behind some bases and gaining authority with Trade Federation cards seems the easiest. Just make sure to pick up some ways to deal damage, because you don't want to have the opponent keep all their bases!

My solution is to get enough attack to constantly knock out their bases. Their deck has no purchasing power so you don't have to worry about it getting stronger, what typically kills you are the blob stations with high attack (like the Hive) coupled with their "Draw Card" ally abilities.

Hive + Hive + Blob Wheel + Mothership + Ram = death

Yeah this mission seems WAY out of balance. I've tried it like ten or more times and I just keep getting hammered no matter what strategy I use. It feels impossible and is really killing my desire to play this game.

I dunno, I've played that mission twice now following my strategy of knocking out their bases and it's worked very well. In fact I think killing the enemy outright is harder than surviving 20 turns.

I did make it past it finally. Wish I could remember what strategy I used. I think I went with a Blue+Green deck, basically focused on getting all of those cards that I could.

I can't last long enough to do anything. I'm always killed by turn 3 or 4 before I can get enough attack power to destroy their bases or draw a base of my own to help shield myself. It just feels broken.

This. Just always kill bases when you can and this mission is very very easy. They can only play 1 card per turn and it will do something like 6 to 8 damage to you worst case scenario, which is nothing. Without comboing with bases in play, the deck is weaksauce.

Buy a few ships with good attack, get a discarding card (Trade bot) and start to discard all Scout ships. Destroy enemy bases as they appear. This was the only strategy that I found to actually kill the enemy (at about 18 rounds).
