I got to level 50 on my first try using those 3 way shots. Not enough damage by the end. The high spread was good for a while but alas in the end it was not enough. Suppose I'll have to try again one of these days.

Also note you cannot place towers next to upgraded towers. If you wanna cram a lot of towers close together in a symmetric hex, you must do it before you upgrade them.. meaning you have to get a butt load of money while using normal towers.

I've played for two days now, and I hit 73 once.

Well, he beat me.

By one! But I can't do it again. I've cracked 70 twice, lost in the 60's a dozen times, and lost lower than that countless times. I love games like this, where you have no real hope of winning. Has anybody played Crimsonlands? It's a fun, terribly addictive shooter. You can play through the normal game once to unlock everything, and then "survival" mode for the rest of the time. I've had scores there high enough to place me online (well they would if I was using a paid version). I think it was something like 12 million? I could look specifically if anybody else wants to play.

Blah. Hit L65 with Snipers, then a random 1200-something-HP ant got t3h pizza slice and killed meh. Suffice to say, he will be recieving a strict and painful ZA WARUDO (last one at the bottom)

This might sound kind of silly... but I just realized that if you click on an ant that all of the turrets in his range shoot at him. Until now, I thought they were just doomed to shoot at the closest ant. The last three games I played I scored 70.

Well managed to make it to level 68 with ice and missiles. Sonic makes them move away from the source of the sonic. It's useful for when you want to herd the ants towards a tunnel of missile fire (hehe). However they're not worth the cost as they take up to much turret money.

aye with that gnarr. though it might be interesting to surround your picnic blanket with sonic cannons, just so the range circles barely touch each otehr so the ants go running. then bombard them with poison ice and missiles.

GAH! i made it to lv 60 without losing any cake and then they just started massacring my beautiful cake. got to lv 73 wehn my last cake was stolen. then the ant danced around the ant hill for some reason for like 2 levels with the cake. probably taunting my out of range machine guns

so i lost at 75 with two machine guns, two poison cannons, a missile tower, an electric cannon, a sonic cannon, and (Damnit i forgot, but there was one more cannon)

This sonic around the cake thing is interesting....

Machine guns are terrible. They have a 'scare' factor.. but their dps isn't worth it. I think snipers and electric cannons are the best dps tied with poison and ice, and a boomerang.

74! Woohoo!
