Townes (Laser) vs Dr Thrax (GLA Toxic) in Hard Difficulty.

The most difficult general to beat in General Challenge.
Yeah I'm stuck at this general using Deathstrike (Scavenger General)

Do not bother capturing the west/north oil derrick. You will trigger the AI to attack from that direction.

1. Build two Laser Patriots. Build the one in the North to out-range the Tunnel Network(place it along the road as visual reference).
Beware of the RPG troopers
2. Capture oil derrick asap. Your 2nd Patriot should be placed next to it.
3. Build a row of 3 Laser Patriots at the north side as shown in the video. Have column of 3 Laser Patriots at the East Oil Derrick Beware of power consumption.
4. Tech up to PC, hence...
5. Get Airfield. Build 1 F-22 Bomber & 1 Laser Comanche. You will need to micro alot. Plus you don't have much cash at this point.
6. Use Support Powers to destroy the nearest two Stinger Sites. You need the SPACE for your Air to destroy incoming Palace-tech units like Rocket Buggies and Scourges.
6. Use ONE PC to destroy the Palace. Make sure he doesn't rebuild it.
7. Dr Thrax will launch attacks with Rocket Buggies and Scourges when he says "I'm coming for you etc". Clear them with your Air
8. Build Supply Zones & PCs and turtle up.
9. Steam roll with upgraded Laser Comanches.
