Well, I got it. And it's a great game. I didn't like the original back when I played it because I was on a not-as-good-as-Total-Annihilation-by-the-way-guys-I-played-Total-Annihilation-when-it-first-came-out-1337 snob spaz but I've changed my mind, especially with the improvements in the expansion. It's a really good game, fun, sometimes it can get bogged down when shield walls and turret farms start going up, though.
I honestly can't beat the first expansion mission, I've tried three times now. I get to the third section and get steamrolled. I think it's because I play the game wrong. Instead of spamming experimental units and siege bots I build big armies of level 1 and 2 units and navies. The navies in this game are just great fun. Naval combat itself is a bit meh sometimes. But it's hilarious to watch 3 battleships blowing the shit out of everything.
I will admit I'm not very good at the game, I have trouble managing my economy. I have a tendency to want to get units out fast so I build a bunch of engineer drones and have them assist my shipyards and factories, even though I know that it would probably be a better idea to build more shipyards and factories instead and just go with the natural build times unless I need to rush out some counter units real quick.
