Swarm Assault Level 72 - Natural Selection


Not a very tough level.. though I was quite intimidated by this at first.. But then I realized that the only way to proceed was to take over the 3 yellow spider colonies. This is how I went about it.
I produced cannons in the top 3 colonies closest to the spiders. And ladybugs in the bottom 3 colonies closest to the scorpions - so as to delay the progress of the incoming scorpion front while I could focus on acquiring the spider colonies. I placed cannons towards both sides of the land bridge that separates the spider colonies from the rest. And targeted incoming attackers. And I placed one cannon towards the middle of the land bridge just close enough so that it would start attacking the spider colony safely. I let him bring down the colony slowly while killing off attacking spiders. Also, I had switched to ladybug production in at least one of the top colonies to get more units.
Once the closest spider colony collapsed, I brought up all the units ans collected seeds and killed off incoming attackers.. Then the spiders popped it again.. the cycle went on for a bit.. but I preferred to focus on killing rather than occupying. Once I had more units and I noticed that the other spider colonies healths were low enough, I attacked them too.. Finished them all off.. Most of my units died off.. But one of the cannons was in safe zone and finished the job. And I brought in more ladybugs to help collect all seeds and kill off lingering lone-spiders. Now, the scorpions were closing in from the South, but at least I had the 3 spider colonies.. I collected all the lady bugs I had and went down and started a  resistance to the advancing scorpions.. killing them off fast. Then I started producing snipers from the healthy spider colonies. Expanded my boarders.. Kept pushing the boundary South, till I mostly had all the beetle colonies.. I produced ladybugs from healthy beetle colonies.. and had plenty of snipers already produced.. Now, I could just bring down the snipers and ladybugs and storm the scorpions from South-West. One at a time.. I didn't even need missile spiders to finish off all the scorpions.
