Do you even need to use the shotgun with that strategy?

Also, where are all the worms? I only saw one settlement where they were present. I would think that they would cost a few more destroyers when you attacked a settlement.

Thanks for the video!

Nah, I don't really have to use the shotgun, but it lets me target down the nests a bit faster, and also clears annoying trees out of the way :)

I've done some bases with lots of worms as well, but just didn't happen to run into many while recording this video. A couple of destroyers might die, but not enough to make a difference. Any biter base is pretty trivial with this level of tech and equipment.

I like how the green targeting circle works like night vision as well.

Love it. This is one area where I don't look too hard at balance. When you research that far you should be OP compared to them.

Now. if I want (almost) the same rush, as on the OP video - I need to research follower robot count to the max.

lol, that gravedig yo.

That was from 2014. Destroyers now run on DPS not burst. We have behemoth biters and a few other tweaks have happened. Destroyers are hardly as OP as they once were.
