Taking over the homestead near the Great Swamps turned out to be quite the battle. I used the sides of the building to run around and try to be one step ahead of my enemies. Using the corners as cover as they attempt to advance on my position. Got shot alot, reloaded my game alot. But I was making progress. I think I took out at least 10 enemies at this location all my myself, the Monolith in the area were not able to help for awhile as they were busy holding down different locations. I was pretty much on my own, and just had the walls to protect me. I could hear gunshots off in the distance where Monolith was battling some unknown enemy. Maybe monsters or the military, just not enough of them to break off a squad to come assist me in my location. And id rather spend my money on ammo and supplies instead of some dumb AI thats probably going to die quickly.
Over time I have less and less of them to deal with and make my way into the homestead. I decide to walk around the building again and take all the weapons, aid and ammo before reinforcements get here. They tend to loot bodies.
I had one more battle before it was over for the moment and fellow Monolith started arriving at the homestead. Though many times the enemy will make another push to take their base back over again. I need to adjust the lighting. Had it set for night time and inside buildings but during the day the rays coming from the sky look pretty wild. Loving all the setting changes I can make in Anomaly, I dont recall being able to do all of this in the vanilla game.
