Great Map, Thanks,

1 comment, Is there anyway to make that green line invisible? It is the only thing I can find disagreeable with this map,

Cheers

I agree, the green line tends to obscure details.
From my perspective, 1 or three pxiels wide would be okay. Or give it more transparency.

Otherwise, I really liked that map.
I am not sure how a slower player would have dealt with the 330 emitter around the corner; I was barely fast enough to disable it, but you need to get the right tech in time, otherwise it will just overflow your base and it's game over.
(I hate restarts, I love it if I can make a comeback when I botch something up.)

Once you get the conversion bomb it becomes a cakewalk.  With gate 4 closed you can use one bomb to claim the upgrader--but it was irrelevant as I didn't need the power.

I'm having trouble getting started, I think I'm missing something.  I convert the first converter and the 30000 one takes forever to convert but I'm pretty much stuck right at the beginning.  I normally love these maps but there is something basic I'm missing.

Edit: Figured it out.  Fun map!

Look for absorbers that are at a lower threshold then 30K, You can block absorbers so they don't convert, Also there are a few places you need to block to allow AC to build up.

That was exactly what I was missing.  Tried one more time after making my post and got it.  Thanks!
