===Main attack===

The Mega Massive Munitions Factory's main [[attack]] deploys giant ~~spiked~~ mines in its radius. Like [[Super Mines (BTD6)|Super Mines]], they generate small explosions each time a Bloon touches them, which deal extra damage to [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified Bloon]]s and [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]s (but not [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]'s Ceramic Armor Shell). When they expire, by running out of [[pierce]], after 5 minutes, or after 5 [[round]]s (whichever comes first), they spawn a storm of 10 spike piles that each last for 9 to 11 seconds at random and can carry over one round. All [[projectile]]s deal [[Damage type|Normal-type]] [[damage]] and can hit [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s. The mines, explosions, and spike piles all benefit from {{BTD6 mk|One More Spike}}, but not {{BTD6 mk|Very Shreddy}}.

The Mega Massive Munitions Factory's main [[attack]] deploys giant spike-storming mines in its radius. Like [[Super Mines (BTD6)|Super Mines]], they generate small explosions with 30 radius each time a Bloon touches them, which deal extra damage to [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified Bloon]]s and [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD6)|Ceramic Bloon]]s (but not [[Dreadbloon (BTD6)|Dreadbloon]]'s Ceramic Armor Shell). When they expire, by running out of [[pierce]], after 5 minutes, after 5 [[round]]s, or before a [[Boss Bloon]] starts spawning (whichever comes first), they spawn a storm of 10 spike piles that each last for 9 to 11 seconds at random and can carry over one round. All [[projectile]]s deal [[Damage type|Normal-type]] [[damage]] and can hit [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s. The mines, explosions, and spike piles all benefit from {{BTD6 mk|One More Spike}}, but not {{BTD6 mk|Very Shreddy}}.

This attack has the same [[targeting option]]s as [[Smart Spikes (BTD6)|Smart Spikes]], except ordered Normal, Set Target, Automatic, and Close instead of Normal, Close, Smart, Set Target, and Automatic.

At Degree 1:

*The Giant Mine attack has a cooldown of 11 seconds.

*Each Giant Mine spike does 100 damage, +480 MOAB-class damage, and has 50 pierce.

*Each mini-explosion has does 120 damage, +240 Ceramic damage, +240 Fortified damage, and has 30 pierce.

*Each mini-spike does 40 damage, +100 MOAB-class damage, and has 10 pierce.

===Carpet of Spikes===

Immediately upon upgrading to a Mega Massive Munitions Factory (even before it finishes transforming), the Spike Factory creates a damaging area of effect around itself that works very similarly to the track vines from [[Spirit of the Forest (BTD6)|Spirit of the Forest]]. It grows in size at a rate of ~16.667 units per second (50 units every 3 seconds) and deals Normal-type damage to Bloons inside it, including Camo Bloons, every 0.5 seconds (regardless of attack speed modifiers). It visually creates purple spikes on the ground, but these are purely an indicator of the area's radius; it affects Bloons within the radius even while they are not on top of the spikes (i.e., displaced by [[blowback]]). It disappears immediately upon [[sell]]ing the tower.

It attempts to place up to 25 mines across each path and spread them at least 60 units apart from each other (before they are randomly spread by up to 15 units in either direction), but will place fewer than 25 mines if the track is not long enough. The rate of making land mines is not affected by degrees or external speed buffs.

Each land mine explodes on contact with the first Bloon, after 6 minutes and 40 seconds, or after 5 rounds, whichever comes first. It generates an explosion and spawns three spikes (resembling [[Deadly Spikes (BTD6)|Deadly Spikes]]) that each last for up to 5 minutes or 5 rounds. The explosion and spikes both benefit from {{BTD6 mk|One More Spike}}, but not {{BTD6 mk|Very Shreddy}}.

Activating the ability while there are still any mines on the screen from the previous activation (not counting spikes spawned from detonated mines) detonates all the mines instantly instead of spawning more mines. It has a base cooldown of 75 seconds.

At Degree 1:

*Each mini-spike does 100 damage, +250 MOAB-class damage, +50 Fortified damage, and has 10 pierce.

*Each mini-explosion does 10,000 damage, +25,000 MOAB-class damage, +5,000 Fortified damage, and has 120 pierce.

Mega Munitions is one of the strongest Paragons if allowed to stockpile enough mines, though somewhat more map-dependent than [[Goliath Doomship]] due to reliance on placement. The main strength comes from the mines, which last many rounds, in addition to well-timed Spikeageddon abilities. The carpet can clear many weakened bloons without trouble. It is the best option for Timed Boss Events, as a stockpile can do immense damage in a very short time. Versus Bosses, its worst matchups are [[Vortex (BTD6)|Vortex]] and [[Phayze]], particularly the former which deletes stockpiles consistently, while its best matchup is [[Bloonarius (BTD6)|Bloonarius]].

High degrees should be a priority with Mega Munitions, due to its high damage potential from both its mines and abilities. Unlike most Paragons, flat pierce bonuses are very important for its DPS (every 10n+1 degrees increases flat pierce by 1), because each spike does high damage.

For maximum pops, [[Super Mines (BTD6)|Super Mines]], [[Carpet of Spikes (BTD6)|Carpet of Spikes]], and [[Perma-Spike (BTD6)|Perma-Spike]] output the majority of pops, and ensure that all Spike Factories target all of the entrance(s) of the map so other towers don't steal pops.~~~~ For the cheapest T2 and T3 crosspaths for the most tiers, use 0-2-2 and 0-2-3, and 4-2-0 for the most expensive. 2-4-0 can be kept if they've already got high pops versus a Boss and if planning to go for Mega Munitions with already high income generation.

Bear in mind that it may be preferable to prioritize pops on other Paragons first, such as for [[XXXL Trap (BTD6)|XXXL Trap]] into [[Master Builder]].

To set up maximum stockpiles, build it in advance so it has time to pile up spikes and charge the Spikeageddon ability. For Boss Events, buy it on Round 96 for T4, and Round 117 for T5. Use the Set Target priority to focus the mines on a specific region, as the other targeting priorities aren't as effective for stockpiling.

In Freeplay, ~~the paragon~~ should be placed at the back, as a full spike pile can tank even some of the fortified BADs of later rounds. However, the main strength comes from the ~~Spikeaggeddon~~ ability, which can turn the tide of rounds that would otherwise be very difficult to pass.
