I'd like some hints on mission # 15, more precisely:
1) I played with dustriders, I upgraded Taslow at 4, in order to have Taslow towers, what about having massive brachio-catapults (e.g. 4 units), maybe 1 T-rex titan, and Arci-Druid (to cure animals health) beside heroes? Brachio-catapults would offend SEAS guns-tower protecting stations quickly, wouldn't they ?
2) How can I de-activate 5 pumping-structures in 1 hour ? Do I have to do anything in particular ? (I mean, is it enough to pass through each structure, or is it required anything more, or different ?)
3) How can I switch off that giant cannon at the end ?
Thanks a lot.:go:

1) When playing dustriders with Taslow, it is a good idea to build a lot of taslow towers. The first part is difficult, but as soon as you manage to establish a fortified base, it gets easier. Build two bazaars and lots of trade dinos, protect all entries to the base with lots of taslow towers, build a nice army of brachios (melee and catapults) and some t-rexes.
2) The countdown stops when you get enough pumping stations. From that on you have more time than just one hour. All enemy units must be dead there and you have to hold all five pumping stations. I used Taslow himself to build another load of taslow towers at the pumping stations, which works quite well.
3) The giant cannons have to be destroyed to make them stop firing. That's not easy, but you may achieve this with catapults instead of fighting your way through, but probably you will lose quite a lot of units trying.

I abandoned the starting position on this one, I stayed near where it starts you out long enough to level up and produce a couple of transport turtles(yes I chose Dustriders). I loaded everything onto the turtles and moved to the island in the lower right corner(fighting the big carnivores was more appealing than to continually fight on 2 or 3 fronts). There is no stone on the island, but a couple of bazaars and some trade carts takes care of that! The nice thing about being on this island is, there is only one direction for the attacks to come from!
Be sure to move your turtles back in the little lagoon on the back side so you don't lose them, because you cannot get off the island without them, no harbor can be built at the beach of this island.
You can safely build up your army and tech tree, before making the move on the bases and pumping stations!

Norseman are the best on this mission, you must defend your position.
