Both players starts at a vulnerable position on the center of the map, surrounded by three enemies. Bolster your defenses quickly by capturing neutral structures. Syckles are regularly paradropped around your base, harassing miners and melting infantry, build towers to counter them. An alternative is to move the MCVs close to the shore line for a more favorable position.
Latin confederation's flame weapons are more than potent in this challenge, as fire burns more fiercely and spreads quicker on this map. Their Borillos and Mortar Quads are equipped with napalm warheads too. As a result, all tech provider buildings must be protected from Motor Ambushes, one single shot can usually burn them down from full health.
To the offensive, naval siege is a viable option as always. Compared to other challenges, the hostile bases are not so heavily defended. A land assault is therefore possible so long as you stay aware of the burrowed Fury Drones all around the map. The Confederation's lack of a real advanced AA weapon can also be exploited.
Epsilon factions are especially useful for this map owing to their stealth miners and submerged siege units. While a AI teammate can buy you time on lower difficulty, a human co-commander is really recommended on mental.
