47:35 I like the use of Carbot music here.

[@kage-rts]

I though it might be out of place, but glad it worked out.

Fun fact about this mission - you can "save Grom from himself" here. What I mean is that you can fully wall-in Grom in his base with structures, which will make him unable to go out and aggro Human bases. Another fun fact - if you keep friendly firing Grom and his base he turns against you and attacks you for the rest of the game heh.

[@kage-rts]

Ally wasnt really attacked at all. They mostly came for me.

[@Jedrex899]

@@kage-rts yeah but enemies only begin to attack you AFTER Grom attacked them. So by preventing him from suicide-attacking enemy bases you also save yourself the trouble of defending.

[@kage-rts]

Hmm... Thats a great insight.

It's a nice and relaxing macro mission, as it should be for the first macro mission in the campaign (there will be exceptions to this in the future). As per usual - you struggled here due to poor decision making. The moment you saw 4 enemy bases the very first instinct should have been "I need like 20 towers before I leave the base". With some foresight you can also build all your towers at the crossroads in the middle of the map - that way those towers would intercept all incoming attack waves and you would have a forward position to strike from/retreat to when attacking the enemy. Another thing - you realise you had an ally here right? It's best to just join in with him to attack a base (once you have defenses in place and solid army ofc) rather than attack alone and have allied troops go to waste. With two heroes and two armies you can EASILY crush a base.

If I were to replay this I would try stealing allies gold mine. It only came to me after I played. I could try destroying some of his base to make room for mine. Hehe I should have indeed towered up, but I say they didnt have that many defences and I though, I could steamroll it. Oh boy i was wrong. So if I keep attacking him, he aggrose on me. Interesting. Could be a fun test. When I wanted ally to attack one base he went to another, so U kind of gave up on going with him. When we were attacking the last base, he was in front and I thought I can clear the back... Boy that was a mistake.

[@Jedrex899]

@@kage-rts ally will attack bases at random, so YOU should follow him. Most bases have about the same level of defensive power so it really matters not which you destroy first, as long as you leave your base with enough towers and maybe 2-3 units just for enemy Mortar Teams. Otherwise Grom gets wasted and you take unnecessarily long to clear your own target base.

[@kage-rts]

It could have, I should have, but I didn't lol. I am my own man. And I will take the most 8nefficent way to deal with stuff. :D
