How to unlock the Tower Expert achievement in Defense Grid: The Awakening - Definitive Guide

You have to build a level 3 (red) tower of each type. There are 10 tower types and the all tower type become available after the standing order mission.

An easy way to do this is to wait until after you complete the crossed signals mission for the first time. Play crossed signals again but choose the "Practice" mission variation. You will start with 20K resources. Just buy one of each tower and upgrade them all twice. The achievement should unlock right after upgrading the last tower.

Took about a minute doing it this way, easy to understand guide, there is no need for any additional info i.e. you do this you will have the cheevo very quickly. I really don't understand where these negative votes have come from

I didn't even have to play Crossed Signals story first, nor did I have to play the missions before it. I just loaded up practice on that level and it worked. Thanks, achievement unlocked!

Great guide. Beats keeping track of them in your head when you play each map.

Probably can do this on MANY levels, but this worked like a CHARM!!

+1 THUMBS UP

Took 20 seconds, holding RB to speed up time.

Solid advice, but you don't have to build all of them in a single mission - it's cumulative.

but it also takes 30 seconds to do it his way...he didn't say you HAD to do it all in one level, but it is very simple to do so!

I built all the towers, upgraded once, then upgraded them all the 2nd time.

The soonest you can get this in the Awakening campaign is Crossed Signals. You'll need to upgrade every possible tower twice. It does NOT have to be in a single game.

Gun: G-100, Y-200, R-400
Inferno: G-150, Y-300, R-600
Laser: G-200, Y-400, R-800
Temporal: G-300, Y-300, R-300
Meteor: G-250, Y-500, R-1000
Cannon: G-200, Y-400, R-800
Tesla: G-175, Y-350, R-700
Missile: G-225, Y-450, R-900
Concussion: G-275, Y-550, R-1100
Command: G-300, Y-300, R-300

The achievement will unlock during the game as soon as you build your final upgrade.

In order to get this a little quicker, you can immediately scroll to any "20K Resources" Mission after you unlock the final tower (command) you can then build and upgrade every tower within that single game smile

As the description says: You need to build every tower type and bring them up to Level 3 or make them Red. This will pop the instant you complete your final upgrade.

Due to the lack of Flying enemies in many levels, you may find Missile Towers being the last built.

Tower usage Stats are shown on Stats tab your Steam Achievement page.

You may want to combine this with Full House, which requires Every tower and upgrade on a single level.

Build the following tower types to unlock this achievement. This does not have to be done in one match. The earliest you can get this achievement is the 10k resource challenge on Standing Order. Each tower maxes out at Level 3. Here's a list of the towers:
  • Gun
  • Cannon
  • Inferno
  • Laser
  • Tesla
  • Missile
  • Command
  • Temporal
  • Concussion
  • Meteor
