This is probably the hardest event I have seen thus far. Kixeye has a base with two silos, five towers and so many plats that I know I wouldn't be able to place that many on my own base. That is wave 30 where I quit since none of my missiles could even reach the towers before being shot down by hover tanks, Hercs and everything else that you have put on the base. This is not really fair where when you attack a base it should be limited to the same as to what the players can have. I guess it all comes down to what people can spend money wise to repair quickly since there is a reset timer on those base because if you don't get through them than you have hours or even days of repairs before you can even get back into it. I wonder how are the low level can get anything that is worth getting since it so hard.
Laser beams. BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I am level 38 and could not get past level 40!!? without wasting every toon i have, wasn' t going to give you the satisfaction. Prizes way beyond the non- coining level. worst event in a year. you have to make events challenging, but come on!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO1111 waste of time to play for non coiners, take my 37k of XP and shove it!!!
I am Done... Level 71 and not going any further... VIRTUALLY NO SKILL TO THIS OPERATION WAS NEEDED... Just charge and spam... large losses and for what? A suicide type units that are not much different than a glorified weak Herc + Missile combo....
Nope... this operation was a bust for me.... totally not worth the effort or time. Stop coming up with these lame operations that give nothing and take more away from the game than they give...
So why then did you participate in the event if it was " totally not worth the effort and a lame op " as you said?

Hi, I am Maged sector 359 level 38 , I don't have titan or spectra or Banshee or Vanqusher ,
first I reach to wave 62 by using Valkaries ( a lot of Valckaries + BFG + Prime + viper) I stop on Wave 62 , the wave is extremely difficult , how can I hit the Hover by cobras or Hellstorm so please when design game make it possible to every one or even possible by coin , in last event Cerberus 2 I reach to wave 64 with the ability to complete but unfortunately I was have no time to play , but this event I have all time ( I take about 5 days off from my work to can play ) but now I can't play or exceed wave 62
second , there is no good prize to give us the desire to complete the event , before when I was see the puzzle , I think we will have a very good prize like titan , but we have nothing , nothing , nothing
thanks for reading
You took time off from work to play this game? Did you get hit in the head lately by any chance?
not only that,, he's a LVL38 with hs or cobra as best airunit lol if he had coined the money he lost by taking days off work he'd actually be a real 38
1- I start the game in 1/1/2014 with no stop time for upgrade so most of my building is upgrade till last thing but about my platoon it need more time for upgrade like for example ( hover need about 71 day )
2- I do the best in short time all my friend level 38 & 39 & 40 , they at least playing the game from more than 2 or 3 years so that is the reason for I didn't have Titan or Banshee or Vanq till now as I said I start from 7 or 8 month so all event that I was attend is 4 or 5 event
3- I use web site ( http://warcommander.wikia.com/ ) that help me to know upgrade time & also every upgrade I do before it end , I waiting it with resources need it for another upgrade ( there is no time to stop without upgrading )
so at least you should respect that not to say what you say
as a level 31 who has missed at least 6 months worth of events for numerous health reasons i struggled with this event. wave 20 was the furthest i got with what units i have. seems to me kixeye is focusing more on the higher level players who have all the best units than the lower levels who have very little
Ok was the event hard yes it was I think you over did it with anti air a bet to fast but maybe that's just me next ok valks custom valks where the only way to make a hole for me an that's gets old wave after wave next the prise well there just not my cup of tea but for free that's ok I only got to 54 this event just had 2 much to do was the event fun for me no am I happy with the new toys no am I happy with what I got from this event yes
im a level 36 with maxed titan and it gets crushed in 40 i can take out maybe the side with the laser thing but cant do much else as my plats arent repairing either and yes i sent in a ticket i have vanqs was gonna try for elite but with work and my plats not repairing im screwed this event made no sense you offer elite vanqs but not the schematic lol
it is honestly the worst event I have ever played it is also the most unfair vent prizes wear nothing I feel that kixeye has changed it owe cord of fair play to nothing but coin play very sad kixeye you should be ashamed of your selves
Island Bases prevent any ground forces from being used.
REP*** island wave are super cool to play, we have a variety of tactic to use to be able to land some missiles. the proper use of the hangar is required as long as farming skill to be able to gather the colossal resources needed to complete those waves. the best part was the viper that run on water, i really like it. its fun and challenging. there is many way to counter this and i have a lot of fun in those waves.
ORBITAL LASER BUILDING
Building with near infinite range.
Dynamic targeting
When a unit location is targeted, a large area decal is painted on the ground and an AoE explosion is triggered at the location dealing damage over time to all units in the area.
The explosion cannot be prevented by destroying a projectile and instead must be avoided.
REP*** orbital laser is a really cool building that bring a new dynamic to the game. its really fun and cool looking. but sadly its a great idea that turn bad cause instead of bringing more tactic in... that building instead encourage for more spamming. its fire too fast and dont do enough damage to my eyes. since most of the unit dont have the time to avoid the laser... those unit that are slower are pretty much useless until the orbital building is down. that building alone cut close to 50% of the unit ... tactic again that building is pretty much spamming... its will be way more fun and entertaining if the beam fire slower... and make more damage if we got hit. but if a hellfire cannot even avoid the beam what so ever.. that pretty much say dont bring hellfire... if you cut down hellfire... the hellstorm missile alone is not enough to land... all that to say at the bottom line... the only ground unit that can survive is the one worshopped with full speed and sooner or later you will still get hit.... a good unit to bring to the game to counter this orbital laser will be a unit that will attract the beam and be immune to that beam. (i think of the schematic for colossus... that can be immune to the orbital beam) ... that building is necessary in PVP to avoid player to (hold base) if we have an orbital building inside base the PVP will be way more interesting.
EVENT PRIZES
MERCENARY CAMP
The Mercenary Camp Building is unlocked after beating Wave 1.
This building houses all of the construction/upgrading of Mercenaries units.
REP*** giving that building in event is way more interesting that simply giving the building to everyone.. at least we need to participate in event to get it so that part is cool. being able to build it on wave 1 and actually use it during the event is super cool. its really cool looking the art work is great and the size of the building is proportional with the use of it. i expect a building that produce mech to be that size. the best part of that building is the full autonomy of it. the production and the upgrade of mech all in the same building so we dont overflow the academy or the tech center... the upgrade time seem to be lowered in real game cause in preview those thing needed same time to upgrade as the mega tank and that was bad... so now they required less time to upgrade and that will make us be able to use those mech faster. as far as the artwork is concern i will like to see a cannon on that building (the cannon that shoot mech pod) those mech unlock a new world of possibility and i like that a lot !!
MARAUDER
Unlocked with the Mercenaries Camp Building at Wave 1.
REP*** great versatile unit... to me it look like the baby of jack rabbit + Hercules. all player that enter the event should have this unit... so everybody is able at lest to use mech.
ELITE MARAUDER
Unlocked at Wave 41.
REP*** wave 41 is a free gift i think .. the marauder is owned by all decent player for sure. since its immune to shock it will be a great add on to any army. any player that use this will have a life way more easier that for sure.
WRECKER
Unlocked at Wave 61.
REP*** wave 61 start to be some real wave.. so that make the wrecker a unit for med player. its super great again building and it shoot over wall its not too strong just ok ... for the wave base 61 i think its a real good price.
ELITE WRECKER
Unlocked at Wave 71.
REP*** wave 71 now that is what i call a wave... real player start from there to have some fun. the lower lvl player (or the bad player) will not be able to reach that wave that easy so we will not see this unit unless you face a good player. the elite version fire much more faster speed and dps. since its immune to shock also it make that unit a good way to punch a hole in any base (especially island wave) if you pair this unit with the elite marauder... you got a deadly combo that worth it.
STRIKER
Unlocked at Wave 81.
REP*** that unit is definitely made for higher lvl player. since he require thorium to be build that unit is good only if you have an easy access to infinite thorium. if you have difficulty to get thorium that unit will be super costly. the original striker is NOT good enough for the cost... so anyone that can achieve that wave should be able to get 10 more wave to go for the elite version that is way way better.
ELITE STRIKER
Unlocked at Wave 91.
REP*** now that what i call a price i really really like that unit. its highly versatile and can punch a hole in any base what so ever. any TOP player will greatly appreciate that unit. the higher lvl player have sweet nothing to do with the resources they collect.. now they do ! cause that things at max lvl required an insane amount of resources... you can use that thing once in a while to punch a hole in very ultra difficult base and that will make you able to be a top dog that for sure !! anyone that use this unit on a daily base will lvl up super quick. you need to be a master farmer to be able to keep up with the cost of that thing. to my eyes that unit die way to quick for the cost .... but since no other unit in game can do what the elite striker do ... its nothing more that the highest toy for the highest player. anybody that dont like this unit and cry this event got no valuable price to earn... well those cry baby will cry even more in next event cause that thing will make the cut in between the best player. this unit is a game changer. the new mech is a 3th kind of unit you can bring to the battle and that make a HUGE difference.
EVENT SHOP PRIZES
IRON MARCH TROPHY BANNER
Unlocked in the Event Shop for 135,000 XP
REP*** well player cry that we cannot use our xp on anything ... so instead of addressing the issue the good way kixeye just swipe the dust under the rug with this (useless price) once again its a banner that do sweet nothing... no boost of any kind (+2% dam boost, +5% heal faster -50% reduction on gold purchase...) no no ,... that banner do none of those cool thing .. its simply does sweet nothing !!!! this banner was way to easy to get to my eye... all high lvl player that have nothing to do with their xp will get that banner. so therefore if this is a bragging tool that everybody can get ... its totally lose its purpose... the ONLY real value of that things is the fact that very very few people can get it... but at 135k xp you can achieve that amount of xp by doing wave 100... meaning this banner is 50% easier to get than the previous banner at wave 151. many people can claim that this event was more tough than other event but those people that say that are people that cannot get the banner anyway... the banner is made for real hardcore player and NO hardcore player find that event difficult at all. like i said the ONLY value of a banner atm is the fact that few people get it... but in fact that banner will be earn by so many people now that it just lose all purpose. the player that dont have that banner should be really ashamed cause it was the most easiest banner to get so far. to me a banner should say (wow this player is great) but this particular banner say instead (if you dont have this banner you really suck) its not a trophy like it should ... its more like a shame status to NOT have it... so basically im disappointed with that price cause it was to easy to get
BANSHEE
Unlocked in the Event Shop for 60,000 XP
BANSHEE SCHEMATIC
Unlocked in the Event Shop for 40,000 XP
REP*** the banshee+schematic at 100k xp is a good price for a unit of that calibre. any player that dont have those must aim for it that for sure. the banshee can do many thing that other air cant.... and it heal super fast that make you be able to play more.
-----------------------------------------------
overall i had a great event, i get a lot of fun and i learned many new cool tactic. the best was the new dynamic that bring the orbital building among with the mech. those new thing will bring fresh air to the game. i expect more thing like this in near future. i personally had a terrible lagging event (the lag was humongous as it was in zombie event !!) i had terrible bug that prevent me to play but kixeye answered my ticket and i was able to finish event. i give that event an 8/10. if the lag was not there i will be able to enjoy way more that for sure.

It is absolutely ridiculous that someone can get to level 38 in less than 7 months - that is part of the problem with this game.

Exactly AA-82 I took me going on 2 years to get to lvl 38.
you have seriously lost the plot, i dont know why you bother with the forums as you never listen to the players, this event is for coiners only, as it virtually impossible for anyone not coining to get to 91 let alone the trophy, we get 1 toon of air and, you decide you pt all those towers in scehmed hercs etc.. i would to see one of you get to 91 with no coining as the only way i can see to do that is keep suiciding valks and i see no skill or pleasure in that its supposed to be a game where to get to know your units use them wisely, take some damage and eventually win this event is just a **** joke !!!!

I agree with most of what you said but I think the price of the Banshee+Schematic is slightly too high priced. It's a brilliant unit indeed, but to be better than say, the custom HS, I've heard you need the schematic as well, so 100k XP is quite a lot of XP to get, and anyone who can get the banshee and schematic, probably already have it. It should've been like 50k XP for the banshee and 35XP for the schematic. Remember, 60k XP is the highest price ever charged for a unit, especially in an event as hard as this. I'm not complaining, but I just think it should've have been scaled down a little.
... to me a banner should say (wow this player is great) but this particular banner say instead (if you dont have this banner you really suck) its not a trophy like it should ... its more like a shame status to NOT have it... so basically im disappointed with that price cause it was to easy to get

And the content and tone of his posting shocked you why again
The only thing that shocked me want he didn't work the words skill or skillful more often ;-)

Make_Me's dumb posts can actually be hilarious at times. I'm not sure if he's a troll or being genuine with some of his bizarre input.
My favorite one was when someone made a thread about long term players getting some kind of loyalty bonus. Make_Me suggested that the loyalty bonus be dependant on what level units like Vanguard, Honey Badger, Jackrabbits were at. Totally derailed the thread and killed it as he does with most threads he comments on.
His posts about making it to wave 150 with some ERM, Razorbacks, and Cobras are always fun too.
Yeah i was tempted to ask him how his elite mortar team and riflemen spam was doing against the orbital ladder but i was scared he wouldn't understand the sarcasm and post a video (made by someone else of course) about it
-reduce the AA defense - cannot see any ehf missiles reach the biltz on wave 20(the wave i gave up)
-less attacking wave(please)
prizes
-i like the prize. however, i think the maraduer should be offered on beating wave 5 instead as you are giving free units
-mercs should be used more than once and should not be deployable in caves waves
orbital laser base(olb)
-i think that the olb is too overpowered. you should isloate it from AA defense
overall, i think that this is is a bit better as i did not experience any lags at all but it could be better if there is less AA and i hope the future wave 1 will be attacking like you did on the cerberus event.
- Removed 2 hours run for 3-headed (Cerberus) bases . This
is good. I was tired to be stick for such long time in a single wave. Most of
resources gained was wasted.
- Returned island waves. I like that because one needs
different tactics - not just spamming with tanks
- Removed caves. They were boring and not enjoyable to
battle.
- New type of battle units - seems fresh and interesting,
despite some glitches. They allow new type of tactics.
- Orbital Laser Defence introduces another challenge, that is good for high level players but seems difficult for low ones.
Negatives:
- Bases above wave 40 are so overcrowded with defense units
that one cannot normally operate with Vanquishers inside enemy base.
- One cannot scrap (dismiss) mercs one by one.
- Well I've hired (produced) some mercs - I'd like to be
able to split them in groups and deploy them separately!
- Attacking waves above some level (40+) are specially
designed to be beaten mostly with new units (Banshees, BFG, Vanquishers) and
are very hard to conquer for players who have not yet unlocked or upgraded
those units.
- It should be possible (not easy, but Possible) to win all
wave battles using tactics. Air waves after 82 cannot be won without air losses
that require gold to repair AIR in reasonable time. We have not upgraded the mercs
yet!
I was not right about last observation. There are at least 2 easy ways (one quick and one slow) to beat WMP guarded islands without any loss.
If you know yourself and your enemies, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
This is probably the hardest event I have seen thus far. Kixeye has a base with two silos, five towers and so many plats that I know I wouldn't be able to place that many on my own base. That is wave 30 where I quit since none of my missiles could even reach the towers before being shot down by hover tanks, Hercs and everything else that you have put on the base. This is not really fair where when you attack a base it should be limited to the same as to what the players can have. I guess it all comes down to what people can spend money wise to repair quickly since there is a reset timer on those base because if you don't get through them than you have hours or even days of repairs before you can even get back into it. I wonder how are the low level can get anything that is worth getting since it so hard.
Laser beams. BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I am level 38 and could not get past level 40!!? without wasting every toon i have, wasn' t going to give you the satisfaction. Prizes way beyond the non- coining level. worst event in a year. you have to make events challenging, but come on!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO1111 waste of time to play for non coiners, take my 37k of XP and shove it!!!
I see unsatisfied people.
Time for reflection Kixeye Team!
wave 20 is too hard for me because it has blitz and rocket silo
So why then did you participate in the event if it was " totally not worth the effort and a lame op " as you said?
there is no prize
Jim Hartman just respect me when talking please

1- I start the game in 1/1/2014 with no stop time for upgrade so most of my building is upgrade till last thing but about my platoon it need more time for upgrade like for example ( hover need about 71 day )
2- I do the best in short time all my friend level 38 & 39 & 40 , they at least playing the game from more than 2 or 3 years so that is the reason for I didn't have Titan or Banshee or Vanq till now as I said I start from 7 or 8 month so all event that I was attend is 4 or 5 event
3- I use web site ( http://warcommander.wikia.com/ ) that help me to know upgrade time & also every upgrade I do before it end , I waiting it with resources need it for another upgrade ( there is no time to stop without upgrading )
so at least you should respect that not to say what you say
as a level 31 who has missed at least 6 months worth of events for numerous health reasons i struggled with this event. wave 20 was the furthest i got with what units i have. seems to me kixeye is focusing more on the higher level players who have all the best units than the lower levels who have very little
The event simply sucks... The prizes are not worth the effort.
Totally agree
To put it rather plainly, I don't play a game to have a god **** conniption and throw my computer across the room.
this was the hardest event i have ever done
Ok was the event hard yes it was I think you over did it with anti air a bet to fast but maybe that's just me next ok valks custom valks where the only way to make a hole for me an that's gets old wave after wave next the prise well there just not my cup of tea but for free that's ok I only got to 54 this event just had 2 much to do was the event fun for me no am I happy with the new toys no am I happy with what I got from this event yes
im a level 36 with maxed titan and it gets crushed in 40 i can take out maybe the side with the laser thing but cant do much else as my plats arent repairing either and yes i sent in a ticket i have vanqs was gonna try for elite but with work and my plats not repairing im screwed this event made no sense you offer elite vanqs but not the schematic lol
-
it is honestly the worst event I have ever played it is also the most unfair vent prizes wear nothing I feel that kixeye has changed it owe cord of fair play to nothing but coin play very sad kixeye you should be ashamed of your selves
WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT THIS SUBJECT?
ISLAND WAVES
REP*** island wave are super cool to play, we have a variety of tactic to use to be able to land some missiles. the proper use of the hangar is required as long as farming skill to be able to gather the colossal resources needed to complete those waves. the best part was the viper that run on water, i really like it. its fun and challenging. there is many way to counter this and i have a lot of fun in those waves.
ORBITAL LASER BUILDING
REP*** orbital laser is a really cool building that bring a new dynamic to the game. its really fun and cool looking. but sadly its a great idea that turn bad cause instead of bringing more tactic in... that building instead encourage for more spamming. its fire too fast and dont do enough damage to my eyes. since most of the unit dont have the time to avoid the laser... those unit that are slower are pretty much useless until the orbital building is down. that building alone cut close to 50% of the unit ... tactic again that building is pretty much spamming... its will be way more fun and entertaining if the beam fire slower... and make more damage if we got hit. but if a hellfire cannot even avoid the beam what so ever.. that pretty much say dont bring hellfire... if you cut down hellfire... the hellstorm missile alone is not enough to land... all that to say at the bottom line... the only ground unit that can survive is the one worshopped with full speed and sooner or later you will still get hit.... a good unit to bring to the game to counter this orbital laser will be a unit that will attract the beam and be immune to that beam. (i think of the schematic for colossus... that can be immune to the orbital beam) ... that building is necessary in PVP to avoid player to (hold base) if we have an orbital building inside base the PVP will be way more interesting.
EVENT PRIZES
MERCENARY CAMP
REP*** giving that building in event is way more interesting that simply giving the building to everyone.. at least we need to participate in event to get it so that part is cool. being able to build it on wave 1 and actually use it during the event is super cool. its really cool looking the art work is great and the size of the building is proportional with the use of it. i expect a building that produce mech to be that size. the best part of that building is the full autonomy of it. the production and the upgrade of mech all in the same building so we dont overflow the academy or the tech center... the upgrade time seem to be lowered in real game cause in preview those thing needed same time to upgrade as the mega tank and that was bad... so now they required less time to upgrade and that will make us be able to use those mech faster. as far as the artwork is concern i will like to see a cannon on that building (the cannon that shoot mech pod) those mech unlock a new world of possibility
MARAUDER
REP*** great versatile unit... to me it look like the baby of jack rabbit + Hercules. all player that enter the event should have this unit... so everybody is able at lest to use mech.
ELITE MARAUDER
REP*** wave 41 is a free gift i think .. the marauder is owned by all decent player for sure. since its immune to shock it will be a great add on to any army. any player that use this will have a life way more easier that for sure.
WRECKER
REP*** wave 61 start to be some real wave.. so that make the wrecker a unit for med player. its super great again building and it shoot over wall its not too strong just ok ... for the wave base 61 i think its a real good price.
ELITE WRECKER
REP*** wave 71 now that is what i call a wave... real player start from there to have some fun. the lower lvl player (or the bad player) will not be able to reach that wave that easy so we will not see this unit unless you face a good player. the elite version fire much more faster speed and dps. since its immune to shock also it make that unit a good way to punch a hole in any base (especially island wave) if you pair this unit with the elite marauder... you got a deadly combo that worth it.
STRIKER
REP*** that unit is definitely made for higher lvl player. since he require thorium to be build that unit is good only if you have an easy access to infinite thorium. if you have difficulty to get thorium that unit will be super costly. the original striker is NOT good enough for the cost... so anyone that can achieve that wave should be able to get 10 more wave to go for the elite version that is way way better.
ELITE STRIKER
REP*** now that what i call a price
EVENT SHOP PRIZES
IRON MARCH TROPHY BANNER
REP*** well player cry that we cannot use our xp on anything ... so instead of addressing the issue the good way kixeye just swipe the dust under the rug with this (useless price) once again its a banner that do sweet nothing... no boost of any kind (+2% dam boost, +5% heal faster -50% reduction on gold purchase...) no no ,... that banner do none of those cool thing .. its simply does sweet nothing !!!! this banner was way to easy to get to my eye... all high lvl player that have nothing to do with their xp will get that banner. so therefore if this is a bragging tool that everybody can get ... its totally lose its purpose... the ONLY real value of that things is the fact that very very few people can get it... but at 135k xp you can achieve that amount of xp by doing wave 100... meaning this banner is 50% easier to get than the previous banner at wave 151. many people can claim that this event was more tough than other event but those people that say that are people that cannot get the banner anyway... the banner is made for real hardcore player and NO hardcore player find that event difficult at all. like i said the ONLY value of a banner atm is the fact that few people get it... but in fact that banner will be earn by so many people now that it just lose all purpose. the player that dont have that banner should be really ashamed cause it was the most easiest banner to get so far. to me a banner should say (wow this player is great) but this particular banner say instead (if you dont have this banner you really suck) its not a trophy like it should ... its more like a shame status to NOT have it... so basically im disappointed with that price cause it was to easy to get
BANSHEE
BANSHEE SCHEMATIC
REP*** the banshee+schematic at 100k xp is a good price for a unit of that calibre. any player that dont have those must aim for it that for sure. the banshee can do many thing that other air cant.... and it heal super fast that make you be able to play more.
-----------------------------------------------
overall i had a great event, i get a lot of fun and i learned many new cool tactic. the best was the new dynamic that bring the orbital building among with the mech. those new thing will bring fresh air to the game. i expect more thing like this in near future. i personally had a terrible lagging event (the lag was humongous as it was in zombie event !!) i had terrible bug that prevent me to play but kixeye answered my ticket and i was able to finish event. i give that event an 8/10. if the lag was not there i will be able to enjoy way more that for sure.
It is absolutely ridiculous that someone can get to level 38 in less than 7 months - that is part of the problem with this game.
Exactly AA-82 I took me going on 2 years to get to lvl 38.
you have seriously lost the plot, i dont know why you bother with the forums as you never listen to the players, this event is for coiners only, as it virtually impossible for anyone not coining to get to 91 let alone the trophy, we get 1 toon of air and, you decide you pt all those towers in scehmed hercs etc.. i would to see one of you get to 91 with no coining as the only way i can see to do that is keep suiciding valks and i see no skill or pleasure in that its supposed to be a game where to get to know your units use them wisely, take some damage and eventually win this event is just a **** joke !!!!
the most hard event ever
THIS TIME VERY HARD..... AND BANSHEES ARE VERY EXPENSIVE -_-
I agree with most of what you said but I think the price of the Banshee+Schematic is slightly too high priced. It's a brilliant unit indeed, but to be better than say, the custom HS, I've heard you need the schematic as well, so 100k XP is quite a lot of XP to get, and anyone who can get the banshee and schematic, probably already have it. It should've been like 50k XP for the banshee and 35XP for the schematic. Remember, 60k XP is the highest price ever charged for a unit, especially in an event as hard as this. I'm not complaining, but I just think it should've have been scaled down a little.
Wow, you are really too far out
And the content and tone of his posting shocked you why again
The only thing that shocked me want he didn't work the words skill or skillful more often ;-)

Yeah i was tempted to ask him how his elite mortar team and riflemen spam was doing against the orbital ladder but i was scared he wouldn't understand the sarcasm and post a video (made by someone else of course) about it
i think that this event can be improved by
prizes
-i like the prize. however, i think the maraduer should be offered on beating wave 5 instead as you are giving free units
-mercs should be used more than once and should not be deployable in caves waves
orbital laser base(olb)
-i think that the olb is too overpowered. you should isloate it from AA defense
overall, i think that this is is a bit better as i did not experience any lags at all but it could be better if there is less AA and i hope the future wave 1 will be attacking like you did on the cerberus event.
Positive changes:
- Removed 2 hours run for 3-headed (Cerberus) bases . This is good. I was tired to be stick for such long time in a single wave. Most of resources gained was wasted.
- Returned island waves. I like that because one needs different tactics - not just spamming with tanks
- Removed caves. They were boring and not enjoyable to battle.
- New type of battle units - seems fresh and interesting, despite some glitches. They allow new type of tactics.
- Orbital Laser Defence introduces another challenge, that is good for high level players but seems difficult for low ones.
Negatives:
- Bases above wave 40 are so overcrowded with defense units that one cannot normally operate with Vanquishers inside enemy base.
- One cannot scrap (dismiss) mercs one by one.
- Well I've hired (produced) some mercs - I'd like to be able to split them in groups and deploy them separately!
- Attacking waves above some level (40+) are specially designed to be beaten mostly with new units (Banshees, BFG, Vanquishers) and are very hard to conquer for players who have not yet unlocked or upgraded those units.
- It should be possible (not easy, but Possible) to win all wave battles using tactics. Air waves after 82 cannot be won without air losses that require gold to repair AIR in reasonable time. We have not upgraded the mercs yet!
I was not right about last observation. There are at least 2 easy ways (one quick and one slow) to beat WMP guarded islands without any loss.
Ah, and island waves should be good if Viper X don't walk on water!
Hard and challenging? Yes - but what I mind is that it was painful and not fun compared to the past events:(
If you are in the bussiness of game developement and managed to take the fun factor out... You fail and need to rethink your approach.
