28 Years Later - Phase 09X (Lily of the Valley P1)

In 1 collection by POBmaestro

Description
This is the same map as Phase 9 but much much harder…

28 years have passed since a phenomenon known as the The Tempest engulfed the world. Following the events above and underground Kirkwall, ranger Ava and sniper McCauley departed on a boat to travel to Wales. They have now arrived on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park where they hope that they will find either a secret base, new allies or even Ava’s brother...

Difficulty: Nightmare - once again there is a different twist to this map. You cannot place new buildings so you have to look after and make do with what you can find and capture. You can only train basic units and have extremely limited resources. Waves start on day 5. This isn’t a traditional nightmare map – there is no end wave, just an objective you have to reach but that’s easier said than done…typically takes 35 - 42 game days. This harder X version contains 3 giants, twice the number of infected and less resources compared to the regular map. Speed of clearing the way ahead and exploring is key, as is knowing how to kite early on. Recommended for 500%+ players.

@ser Lagsalot - thanks for the feedback, I thought the bug was caused by the killing of the independent unit and then placing units in the tower, but it must just be placing the red health bar units in the towers. Glad you made it in the end and are enjoying the maps though :)

@POBmaestro I didn't kill the Shaman, not once out of 4 attempts, and it only randomly seemed to effect rangers in towers. Can't wait for the devs to fix it. Unpredictable bugs are less than stellar.

I did manage to beat the mission eventually though. Been enjoying the story so far, and the maps have been great, for what it's worth.

@Ser Lagsalt - or just don't put Rangers into Towers as that is what is causing the crashes. Or don't kill the Shaman ("push" her into the base so the infected don't kill her either) and you shouldn't get the ghost rangers spawn. It's out of my hands...still waiting for the devs to fix.

I've got ghost rangers hanging around. Three of them so far. Put a ranger in the towers and they split into two, one on the ground I can't click and one in the tower I can control. They seem to enjoy randomly crashing the game shortly after appearing. Guess I'll have to skip this and go straight to part 2...

Ah yeah of course. Cottage (I didn't know about that) and sniper... duh! Forget about part haha

@sunndance - thanks for the feedback. Some of what you have said is intended, some is just a mystery! What do you mean about the use of the research? The Wood Workshop is there to research cottages and snipers only.

Hey POB,

Yet another nice map (Yeah I somehow ended up playing some in different order.. sorry!)
HAH! Never knew you could upgrade the tents lol silly me. I simply deleted some mills to free up workers and get some extra snipers.

I had the same issue as UberVadok. 'Cept I only noticed it at the very end when I only had one giant to kill. Walked up to it to lure it and POP gone. Weird.

Great way to show everyone how powerful Luci is. With the correct use (chokepoints) it can take on quite some waves. I was slow again and beat this on day 40+ so the waves got pretty big, but Luci + the rest of the army behind him picking off the biggies + spitters held them off every time.

One other issue I noticed (Happened twice) is that the top tesla got infected (the one that is not infected in the north) and therefore I was able to walk passed it and unlock Luci before the 1st wave was coming.

Oh yeah, what is the use of the research? Is it tech to bring along to the next level?

Cheers
Sunny

@UberVadok - glad you liked the map! Strange about the infected dying by themselves - not seen or heard that before on this map and it's not intended. Not sure why that happened to you, but well take it as lore that "there purpose was over"...

Oh I also got bug with RED rangers, but they didn't cause any crashes. I noticed that they don't provide map vision, so u can order them to go into fog of war and lose them) U can still select them in this case. What a strange bug.
UberVadok 23 Feb, 2019 @ 3:52am 
wait WAT? u can upgrade tents???!!! Well bth it doesn't really matter if u would have 5+ more snipers in the end. If u don't know how to properly use Lucifer at chock points u will be crashed by wave at day 18 as its too strong to beat in opened field.
What an interesting mechanics with even more limited resources :D GJ on map as usual! Took me couple tries to succeed.
Also nice trap with barrel ;) It costed me game when soldier who carried it, died and Lucifer set it on fire :D Boom!
The only thing i dont get is why zombies start dieing on their own after day 25, including giants! Is this intended? I was making up big plans on how to get pass them with sick ranger kiting, but in the end didn't have to.
