Tips for the Cape Storm mission?
The final wave of enemies is endless and just bulldozers over me. I had about 60 soldiers (half were vets from clearing the map) in watchtowers backed up by about 40 Rangers.

I only have wooden walls which don't last long. I did a different mission for research points and now have the points to get a Great Ballista, but I don't know how effective it'll be.

Any tips for me?

On nightmare difficulty this mission is straight up not doable without some serious AOE in the form of Shocking towers or lucifers. My friend had 8 rows of like 60 ballistas in total. The command centre went down whilst the stream was still coming. Intelligent tech choices are super necessary.
Ballista spam isn't really practical here, Nightmare difficulty or not. Ballistas won't even come close to a blob of soldiers' DPM.

That is not true at all. I watched someone on Twitch earlier today beat it on Nightmare using only Ballistae, Soldiers and Snipers. He also is not experienced with the game at all. He only bought it when the campaign came out and is just figuring it out as he goes along.

He had around 60 snipers, 80 soldiers and 30 Ballistae and wooden walls. He also had no towers to put his snipers and soldiers inside. Instead he made a continuous retreat as they broke down the front walls, and kept building up new layers at the back.

U'll beat it, just get much more econ/units, Go for shocking towers, im on the last mission and didn't even get ballistas. You can upgrade shocking tower range which makes them op as hell.

200 snipers, 6 rows of walls on 100% difficulty, and they crushed me... IDK what was that :D

I played it before they nerfed it with Sniper and ballistaes tech. No stone walls. Got crushed. Had like 200 snipers and 150 soldiers.

Re did the campaign and invested my tech more wisely. Rushed to stone walls and shock towers. They didnt even break the first row of walls...

The tech choice is hugely influencial honestly.

Not saying it's impossible with only wood walls and soldiers. But it's going to be way harder.

I really see early techs as a huge trap seriously. Yeah sure you got that 20% food on hunters, an extra soldier at the beggining and some 200gold per train.

Compare that to stone walls and shock towers... not even close.

Snipers are much less effective than soldiers for killing plain 45 & 55hp infected. Snipers are good for anything bigger than that.

That only applies to Nightmare which is fairly common in all RTS games at the highest difficulty. You typically need to use the most efficient tech path to get things that make other missions significantly easier.

I'd recommend against Ballistas. I had 18 of them across three lines of defense, the first of which had multiple layers of walls and wooden stakes, and around 80 soldiers. I lost pretty hard on just 100%. The AoE kill just isn't enough to really handle the massive swarms. I'd have to agree with others here that you just need straight soldier spam, preferably with upgrades.

I did it! :)
200 Soldiers & 24 Ballista's. I would have made more Soldiers but I drained the map of food pretty thoroughly.

Shame you cannot see stats after a mission cos' I'm sure the soldiers did all the work there.

This really has been massively nerfed from the first time I played it. On 200% the first time through it was a complete zombie mosh pit, packed in tight from side to side. Now it appears the devs have slowed the spawn speed to about 1/4 and extended the wave, so what previously chewed through 200+ snipers and 10 layers of walls is now stopped at the first layer.

After I accidently found a screenshot with huge swarm storming the bridge I anticipated to play this mission.
Here, passed it at 100% difficulty with around 260 soldiers, gradual retreat and wood workshop only. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1779207653

Ballistas proved to be unefficient.
On the other side, tighter defences would force me to abandon soldiers at the front.

Had 7 Lines of defence and a sorta last stand setup at my HQ. The whole attack wave only managed to tear down one of my gates and a few walls in my first line. Was doing 100% and using soldiers , wood towers and balistas.

Never lost a single unit.

Just did it with about 40 Lucifers and > 100 soldiers that I didn't need at all. Didn't lose a single unit. The zombs didn't even reach my Lucifers after the initial giant wave had passed.

I just chilled and watched all those zombs burn to ashes. =D

Played on challenging difficulty. The game could have sent a constant flow of zombies all over the bridge for an hour and it wouldn't have made a difference.

i think this mission was nerfed. my attack wave was never that big. Was doing 100% mode. That screen shot looked like it could have took out 5 out of my 7 lines of defence.
