Mauna Roa Island

from Stardock Forums

I don't know if it's me, or the difficulty setting, but whenever I play on this map (which I can't get past) The computer player seems to have infinit resources. I have the reboot expansion if that means anything. It's kind of frustrating, but I can not take over an enemy base. As soon as I kill thier units, they're respawning them. I played on game for like an hour killing over 400 baddies with 83 deaths, owning half the map. But whatever I kill is replaced immediately. Even if I make it all the way up to thier main base that produces the things, they keep coming out. Even if I clear the area of all defenses, the enemy bots never stop coming out.

It's frustrating becuase I don't have infinite resources, but apparently they do. The only thing that stops them from building more is the unit cap. But as soon as I kill one, they have an unlimited supply to replace it. Is there a cheat or something so I can get past this map? It's really annoying.

I can't believe you got as far as you did.  I can't survive 10 minutes of action whether I play aggressively or try to hole up defensively to let them run out of resources.  And apparently as you say, they don't run out of resources.  I know the green team built 80 robots in the first 10 minutes, whereas the most I could hope to build was about 10 and in the course of doing so exhausting my resources for the game. 

I have read complaints on other boards about how the RTS was too easy in this game. So I am inclined to believe it is some change made in Reboot that makes this map, or maybe the entire RTS element unplayable.
