Growing your Colony

How to Win

1. Build your colony up to defeat all other queens.
2. Once all enemy queens are killed, your team will win!

Strategies

• As a new colony, try to build your nest under rocks to hide your entrance from enemies. Eventually your nest will get big enough to be seen over the rock though.
• Dig out and move your queen away from the entrance so she will not be attacked if an enemy raids your nest. Protect her! If she dies then you lose.
• Try to make tunnels larger when you have more ants, if a tunnel is only one tile wide it may be difficult for your ants to get through.
• When you are being raided you can try and seal off your queen to protect her from the raiders. Though make sure you unsteal off so she can get food.

Winning Tips

Try to gather resources quickly and build your colony. Always stay alert for enemies. Teamwork is key in team mode.
