actually i am a fan of using manual control
but this map so much base on luck that make me crazy in the beginning AI may or may not move to your base, red AI wipe out too soon and make the game impossible :S
what i thought was to move to red whenever blue make a critical damage to red then let blue capture my initial base so it forget his other base and always attack from one point (defending with 2 missile tower 4 launcher bot + 4 repair bot)
