Things to remember:

Ants will actually avoid damage. If you do enough damage (I assume it's a percentage of their total health) they will backtrack and try to find another way through.

As in real life, ants in the game leave trails that other ants will follow. That's why when one ant finds a soft spot in your defenses often the rest will quickly follow...they're following the first ant's trail step by step.

Because of these two things, the best thing you can do is pin them in their starting corner as much as possible, and when one leaks through target it when it gets near your towers so that you can drive it away. The idea is to keep them milling around inside the range of your cannons as much as possible.

lolz u didnt quit u lost, but h well that is still beter than my high, 80 nice job

That's a lot of Green Turrets.

But wait. Aren't quick turrets inaccurate? When I had one it preformed really badly...

Yes, same for me; I guess his were so close to the anthill though.

Check out the picture for yourself, it's on the first page of this thread.
The majority of them are 1/4-1/2 of the way from the anthill to the cake...

ya but unlimited money really kills the concept of all tds to earn money andget better turrets instead of evrything being a mouseclick away. =[

Cover the anthole with two or three icers and the rest either quick cannons or snipers (or POSSIBLY rockets, impacts). That's the best you can really hope for.

But I'm sure you've seen Blue's description. Right? How many colors have YOU seen? For the last time, stop saying Missile! Just say Rocket Launcher SILVER STAR POWER!!
