Six player map, although only four players are recommended, as six can cause lag. Teams each start in their own little cavern, with the central area connecting all six. You must fight your opponents using only three tiers of grunts, as well as encroaching territory using the unique set of towers available. The only resources available outside your starting supply are located in the central area, or in any unoccupied starting locations. The ruleset is a modified version of the original HQ one, however instead of defending and requiring an HQ, you simply need a barracks so survive.
Details of unit modifications
- Unit limit has been increased 3x
- Bulldozers have increased health and speed. A new bulldozer may be acquired through melting a large building.

- Guard Towers require a Barracks to be built and remain unmodified.
- Flame Towers require a Super Barracks to be built. They have less range than a Guard Tower, but can inflict splash damage.
- Pillboxes require a Super Barracks to be built and are slightly more powerful.
- Sniper Pillboxes require a Super Barracks to be built. They fire sniper rounds inflicting massive damage to infantry, but build slowly and have low defense.
