A quite standard Thermopylae (v2) beginning : we rush for the monkey, we loose it, and all my teammates die. The game should have stopped there, but I decided to turn the game into a survival one.
I turtled like crazy using their XP's mass, and manage to hold on for almost an hour. It took them a paragon and many t3 arties to get me.
I die stupidly, letting my drones repair my com, drain all my energy and kill my shields. If only I had upgraded my com with shields, it wouldn't have happened...
I wonder how long I could have last without that silly mistake...

>You did that several times. Why didnt you let your ACU patrol back in your base while using T3 engis to build? It does not make a big difference with drones assisting and your ACU can be kept under some nice shields. BTW: When facing arty it is a bad idea to build lines of shields like you did as one arty shot will damage several shields... get some space between them. Also ACU shield might have been a considerable help

This. Also, when under arty attack, use T2 shields as well: they won't be damaged when the T3 shields are, and they regenerate really fast if they go down.
