Strategy
Chapter 1
By this point in the game, you should have all superior treasures in Empire of Cats as I.M. Phace's fast attack rate and high damage can pose a significant threat. Try not to attack the base early, as the I.M. Phace is tough and can kill you quickly if you are not prepared.
Once the enemy base is damaged enough, I.M. Phace will spawn. Besides having phenomenal stats, it also has a chance to freeze your cat units and has long range (longer than that Gross Cat). Dragon Cat and Crazed Bahamut Cat are able to outrange I.M. Phace, so they will be the main attackers. In addition, Kotatsu Cat is resistant to I.M. Phace and has the weaken ability, so bring it as well if you have it. I.M. Phace outranges Psychocat, but Psychocat is still useful for preventing the Imperator Saels from destroying your meatshields too quickly.
Chapter 2
The main threat in this stage is not actually the Galactic Overseer Nyandam, but the Cyberhorns, which have over 400,000 health and 10,000 DPS even with all the anti-Alien Treasures accessable at this point. However, due to their extremely low range, you can stall them easily by Slowing/ Freezing them.
2-3 meatshields, Neo Psychocat and/or Castaway Cat, Wheel Cat, Paris Cat/Lizard Cat, Crazed Bahamut Cat and any fast unit such as Swimmer Cat.
All cats should be around level 20.
Battle Items: Sniper the Cat, Rich Cat (Optional)
Send out a few wall cats to stall the Croco, Kroxo and Jackie Pengs. Once the Mistress Celeboodle comes out, kill it with appropriate meatshielding and a Paris or Dragon. The Mistress Celeboodle should drop enough money to send out Bahamut and Wheel Cat with some Psychocats.
At this point, the first Cyberhorn should have spawned. Once it reaches somewhere around the middle, spam cats with the following priority: Meatshields > Debuffers > Attackers. Don't be too worried that the Cyberhorns kill your meatshields too fast, as long as there are a steady stream of debuffers, the Cyberhorn won't advance too far. Your wallet will be filled along the way with Mistress Celeboodles. As you slowly kill the Cyberhorn, the Nyandam may advance and kill some of your meatshields. This is fine as long as you keep spamming them.
You should have killed the first Cyberhorn when the second one comes out, take the time for it to advance to the frontline and spam attackers to chip the Nyandam. The Nyandam will proceed to kill everything, and then you can start your stack again and kill the second Cyberhorn. Rise and repeat until the Nyandam dies. Then just destroy the base.
However, if you have a long distance unit like Sharpshooter Saki or Aphrodite, then this stage will be a joke.
Chapter 3
At this point, you should have plenty of anti-Alien units. Obviously, collecting as many Anti-Alien treasures as possible (500%) is pretty much required and should be priority to weaken Bun Bun. While Bun Bun Symbiote may seem intimidating at first, it can easily be defeated with cats like Seafarer Cat and Octopus Cat.
Bun Bun Symbiote has low range, althought the shockwave it creates is often long enough to reach most, if not all of your backliners. It should be made obvious that all variants of Bun Bun have high attack power, so too many shockwaves will end the battle quickly. Octopus Cat will prevent the shockwave, however, the shockwave occurs very rarely, so it won't bring a lot of benefit unless your luck is against you. However, it still outranges Bun Bun, and can weaken it, providing an advantage. Using medium-long range Cats like Dragon Cat and Paris Cat will prove effective. However, be aware that Wheel Cat does not outrange Bun Bun, not even in its True Form, so avoid wasting money and slots on it. Bun Bun's low range is outmatched by Cameraman Cat, so use that if you have it, because Bun Bun is a Floating enemy. Castaway Cat outranges Bun Bun, so stacking them will pretty much guarantee a win, because Bun Bun will be perma-frozen. Use any anti-Alien/Floating Ubers that you have, because most of them will likely outrange Bun Bun.
Unlike I.M. Phace and Galactic Overseer Nyandam, Bun Bun Symbiote has high DPS and attack rate along with high movement speed, meaning it will reach your backliners quickly without protection. Due to that, it is highly recommended to bring at least three meatshields to ensure Bun Bun will stay away from your attackers.
Octopus cat really helps as it can tank the hits from the bun bun and also blocking the occasional Wave Attacks from Bun Bun Symbiote.
