About
To get an achievement called Thrifty, you have to Three Steak Level 2-6 using only cards that cost 3 coconuts or less. To Three Steak a level is to finish it with all three steaks intact at the end of the pathway.

This guide will show you how to do that.
Howto
  • Before we start the level, we have to chose from the cards that cost only 3 coconuts. There could be more solutions to this problem, but here's mine: We use Stump Gunners for defense towers and one upgrade, Fireball, for the grand finale.



  • Start by collecting all available coconuts and building the first tower in the spot shown in the following picture.



  • Always move ahead of the column, collect coconuts and build new towers in the following order, as shown in the pictures:









  • You should have all the towers set up before the second explosion / second T-rex appearance. Position yourself as shown and wait for it. If you manage to do that, there's no worrying about the first T-Rex, he's going down on his own.

  • Second explosion will bring another T-Rex and some rocket flyers into the game. When the T-Rex is at the point marked with a green X in the picture, use the last card - Fireball. It will help you dispense all the fliers and do enough damage to the T-Rex before he reaches the grub.



  • Attention! You will have to reposition yourself to the spot marked as Y in the following picture, in order to destroy the T-Rex. Do it when the dinosaur comes to the top right corner of the pathway. Don't worry, your upgrade (Fireball) will continue to work from the new spot.



  • That's it, you've got yourself another achievement for this fun tower defense game. Good luck with the rest of it!

Ah, yes, if you have only 7 cards, skip the tower number 2 (1 and 3 should cover that space fine). Forgot to mention that, sorry.
