Return of Fox

[ryker]

Help .. I have been playing level 5 for solid 4 hours with more than 3,000 enemy units destroyed but still couldn't beat this level ..

I even built new HQ location at top right protected with tens of towers still the enemy units appeared never ending ..

Is there a bug or something wrong with this level?

Please share your strategy to beat this level ...

[Verdagon]

This is not a bug. It took me thousands of units to get past it myself, and took three hours. I threw it in as a challenge...

But if it's too hard and if everyone wants it, i'll make an easy setting. Should I do that?

[ryker]

Any specific strategy to beat this level? or just waiting at three entry points at the bottom and wipe all the incoming enemy units?

I have destroyed thousands of enemy units, still never ending ..

Thanks

I downloaded these levels, but I still think they are too hard, especially #5 which I absolutely cannot beat. Can you make it easier?

[Verdagon]

ryker, there's a pretty good strategy. Here it is:
At first, build up your defenses in the three choke points. Then, make a huge cluster of rocket towers in the small mountain west of your base, and put andy in them (trap him in there, cuz he keeps on trying to get out). Build a huge army, and just charge up the left side, until you get to a mountain on the northwest (north of the mountain you have rocket towers on). It has two entrances, on the upper-right and the bottom. Usually it's best to charge through the upper right and sweep into it. Most likely you'll lose it a couple of times, but keep trying to secure it. Build a base in there, make a lot of rocket towers and rocket troopers and keep them coming. After all, you do have an unlimited supply of galaxite. From here, put cyclopses all along the northern edge of that mountain to snipe the units below. Charge with huge forces and break through; once you get to the top left corner you win.

Another good strategy is just to charge up the right side, turn left, and go straight on through with brute force.

UGMC, don't worry. I'll make an easier version.

Yeah Yippie .. At last beat level 5 ..

One good strategy I came up with was to divert all enemy units to the bottom right choke point by building power generators on the roads to other choke points (to be able to do this, first you have to settle a base nearby the road you want to block) .. the enemy units will not attack the power generator (they simply continue their way to bottom right choke point) if there is other thing to attack i.e. the choke point at bottom right .. build your defences (many many rocket and gatling towers) at this choke point .. then slowly move up all your units to top left .. build a base at the top left mountain (just below the enemy base) and build many many units cyclops and rocket troopers until there is lots of units waiting at the top left then sell (will destroy) the power generators blocking the way to top right and attack with full force .. once you are in top right area just send few units to cross parallel wall at the enemy base .. and you win ..

Wow .. 4 more hours spent .. to beat this level .. but really felt it as an accomplishment ..

Damn, I finally finished the buggar too. It was frustrating for the usual reasons: Like most of the other "Return of Fox" levels, the objective is not clear at all, so you can go on playing for an eternity. (It turns out that you have to get any of your objects, just a single thing, up to the top of the screen, referred to at the end as "breaching the wall.") Also, I'm not a fan at all of chunks of thirtysomething enemy units appearing out of thin air ad infinitum.

Anyway, here's my alternative strategy to those that have been mentioned: Build a base just below the very top of the screen, just below the endlessly appearing and re-appearing mass of enemy units. Then, build a few rocket or gatling towers inside enemy territory, to the left of the mass. This distracts the enemy to move leftward. Storm that mass with as many of your own as possible, from the right. Then, place Andy, with any one of your other items alongside, in the little cubby crevice (canyon) at the top of the screen just to the right and above the mass. When your horde dies out (because, yes, the supply of enemies is infinite), let the mass empty out of the magic reappearance spot as much as possible before the next one pops into thin air. Send out the decoy that's next to Andy down and to the right. Storm Andy as fast as hell down the canyon, left and then up to the top of the screen. You win!

Let me know, anyone, if this works for you. The big challenge is to stop Andy from getting involved in the bloody slaughter below him as he watches from the northern canyon.

I took the suggestions. Version 27 now has clearer objectives on every level. Level 5 now has difficulty support.

Any ideas for adding levels to the campaign? My original plan was to have 10 levels in this campaign, but 4 of the levels (The ones that aren't here) were built around the same concept, but unfortunately that concept will never work. I really wanted to have a long campaign.

So any ideas?

[UGMC]

I really like your campaign. By the way, you know that picture at the very start of this firum? Are you in computer graphics or something?

[Verdagon]

No, I'm not in any classes or anything... I just love making pictures with fireworks. There's more on my site (link in my signature)

[Verdagon]

Any ideas for the campaign?

[Verdagon]

Any at all? ... Cmon I have nothing to do here!

[UGMC]

I think I need to play through the campaign again. I originally started with a really old version from March or something, but recently I downloaded the new one. I haven't played it through since then. Anyway, you know OMNI wall? Talk about Extreme Makeover: Warfare Incorporated edition! The new one's quite a bit easier!
