Destroying enemy base

The enemy base is located on the last attack line and its destruction isn’t fundamentally different from other battles except for attacking the last and most important enemy structure - the Construction Yard.

To destroy the construction yard you need to create a heavy lasgun for superweapon points. After destroying the last enemy building the “Victory” button will appear.
