Starting Out: You'll begin with your basic construction units. The map is littered with over 4,000 metal worth of wreckage, so don't let it go to waste!

Metal Management: Before you start reclaiming, build a few metal storage buildings. Aim to have a maximum metal reserve of around 6,000 units. This ensures you can fully utilize the metal from those valuable wreckages.

The CORE Kbot Secret: Keep an eye out for a CORE Kbot wandering near your starting area. Capturing this unit is key! Once you have it, you'll unlock the ability to build aircraft. Even better, using it to construct an advanced construction unit lets you build all the high-tech buildings, including the game-changing nuclear missile silo.

Defense Strategy: Your primary opposition on this map will be ground units. Forget about missile towers for now and focus on building Gaat Guns. Three Gaat Guns placed together should be enough to stop most ground assaults. However, be wary of enemy Diplomats, as they can attack from beyond your Gaat Guns' range.

Dealing with Heavy Units: You'll also face some Goliaths and Reapers, so make sure you've chosen your offensive and defensive weaponry wisely to counter these tougher units.

Energy Needs: Energy can be a bit tight. You'll be relying heavily on solar collectors, so build one or two energy storage buildings to prevent wasting any excess energy you generate.

Reclaiming Wreckage: When you decide to reclaim wreckage, always prioritize sites that will fully top off your metal reserves. Wasting metal on this level is a big no-no.

Air Power Bonus: If you managed to capture that CORE Kbot and start building aircraft, take a moment to appreciate the physics. Bombers' payloads travel surprisingly far on this moon due to its low gravity – it's a neat little detail!
