First, I tried to lure them out with the car, speeding away into some open space, and then I would drive ovals around the horde and pepper them with the submachine gun every drive-by. Not ineffective, but by the time I return to the nest, it seems like the whole crawling mess has already respawned... so, I'm too slow.
Second, I set off with the SMG plus a rocket launcher and some 20 explosive rockets (had to set up an entire new oil production for that...), as well as 30 defender bots and a handful of distractor bots, and ...
... I don't even last 20 seconds. I can't get the bots off quick enough, and the rockets deal negligible damage to the spawners, and I never get off more than two rockets anyway.
Has anybody had success just racing past with the car and hammering the spawners with rockets? Not that it would be feasible, woods are covering about 225° of the nest's circumference...
The only thing I haven't tried so far is poison, but that won't necessarily kill them on it's own, right? And I really, really, really aren't thrilled by the amount of work that would be necessary to encroach them with turrets. Plus, that just sounds unmanly.
Rambo took down entire armies, why can't Daniel squash some lowly beatles?
