I never trust alliances, especially when the other guy sends a special force to help you guard the HQ. What a guy. I guess those Raiders are for color.......
So, I made sure that before I captured the Rads' HQ, I placed my own Honor Guard ( a Raider with a small escort) right next to each and every OMNI building. I also set up a little picnic surprise for the vistors at my HQ, complete with Rocket and Gatling Towers.
When the Rads' HQ was converted and the Truce dissolved, all my Raiders automatically captured the OMNI buildings. All I had to do was mop up a few towers and leftover forces. Not quite a bloodless coup, but very satisfying.

Hehe I didn't trust the alliance either, esp when they moved all those units in, so I filled in the gaps around them with my units, once they betrayed me, my units wiped them out in a matter of seconds. There wasn't much of a base on their end, it took me five minutes to wipe them out. This was a great level but I stil like M8 better. I passed this on one try
 Tip: Take the HRC near the rebel HQ and build corporate raiders and take all the buildings in the vicinity. Sell what you don't need to make some extra cash. Its better than blowing it all up.
 Tip: Take the rebel HQ with corporate raiders cause yours will be taken by OMNI when they betray you.
 Tip: Once you take the rebel HQ build a Galaxite Processor near it and begin mining all the galaxite in that vicinity.

Here's a tip. Once you have a bunch of untis and everything under control, move a bunch of units into the OMNI base next to their HQ, barracks, etc. This way, once you defeat teh rebels, their units will be destroyed almost as fast as they go against you. I tried this out the second time I tried the level.

OK by now most of you that OMNI send's raiders to your base and all you have to is surround them with towers , but what some of you may not know is that, 3 raiders come from the top left corner if you block that little area between the mountain and peak with missle launcher or any wepaon of your choice to defend your base, you wont have to keep 3 raiders on your base and you can just send them to OMNI.
Also to defend your base on this level put towers between the mountain, and the side of the map so all you have to is repair the towers so wave after wave they get destroyed, moving on send troops (lots) to the bottom right corner of the game with raiders, (its better than getting your troops slaughtered, then just move in there will a few guards there but just over whelmed them and surround the VTS and HRC while the raiders take over everything. And for your help send all your G-4's to the new proccesor you just captured its a lot closer than going all the way up. Then do what ever you want to destroy OMNI.

Here is what I did: First I built a layer of power gens around my HQ, Like I always do (  a handy thing to remember when playing multiplayer against me). Then I ringed my base with rocket towers (:idea: another handy tip). After that I escorted a HQ to their base. After that I built a base inside their base! (ha! ha! ha!  ) then the rest was just mopping up action. OMNI didnt survive for even 2 more minutes!!!!!!!!!!

Just after the last Free Radical building is taken over, you'll get the dialogue from Olstrom about their base being destroyed. When that dialogue box is closed, you have about 5 seconds before OMNI turns bad and attacks.

The good thing about this level is that you can take your time and hold off destroying the last Free Radical building while you get your men in position.

Lol this is what I did a long time ago. Made a bace sourounded my HQ with towers so no unit can even atempt to get tru. At enemies bace I put about 20 raiders at each of the bildings, put (most of my units at thir bace the outher 10 were doing something else). The 9 ware garding my bace and 1 cyclops was getting ready to destroy an enemy power generator (in whitch makes omini hate me).

no need for raiders, just mass rocket troops, cuz theyre cheap.
surround remaining omni troops with them before destroying the last FR building and build some towers to guard your HQ and right side of your base.
Another thing is that a somewhat large group of OMNI troops will spawn in on the hill/mountain (whatever its called) in their base after the OMNI turn hostile.

Then I fortified the omni base with acme towers.
It was soooooooooooooooooooooooooo easy on my first try!
