How many tanks do you get by this time? And why the hell don't you get place
turrets arond your base ahead of time ? How about just getting marines and
medics and just early tech to science vessels for detection? Well maybe I
am being harsh so I might want to try that map also....is it fun ? I don't
know if I have played that map before... let me see. Oh yeah, it's a nice
little map to play against two comps. I would try to just get a bunch of
marines and medics and attack the base closest to you , if they get lurkers
by this time just move out of the way ... let them unburrow and then attack
during this time. I haven't played that map with BW.

Yes,
Get turrets w/ bunkers first.
Then get about 3 factories pumping out vultures w/ spidermines.
You will need about 5 to 9 vultures depending on the size of your base.
Plant smines all around w/ turrets close by.
This should do it.
If not...May god help us all...(Emperor Mengkse)
Have fun =)
