[UPDATE] The dam is about to burst and speed is of the essence.
Hard to win, hard to lose. You'll be here a while.
Updated: Terrain tweaks to prevent an unintended relay path
Update: Terrain fixed and starting structures reduced. If you can't make it in time, blame Alwego :-p

Original start off! I enjoyed playing it, but wouldn't rate it Expert Only. I overbuilt a little, so there's about 1-2 minutes to gain.

Yep, not expert only at all, only the start is a bit difficult, but the totems are placed way to easy, you only have to connect one through fighting, as one can be connected just by collectors and the other one by bridging the city.

[UpperKEES]

Great time Sqaz!  8)

The funny thing is that I tried to avoid connecting to the totems with OC while building the last relays, but when I had to charge them I used blasters and a collector. :P So I overbuilt even a lot more than I already concluded. I guess that's what you get when you play maps at 4:14 AM.... ;)

Will someone tell my why that Blaster in the OC socket won't activate?
I managed to build Relays/Collectors all the way across, but now can't set OC down and commence fighting.
Thanks,

Locked units do not activate'unlock' until you land the city while connected to them.

[DethbyIT]

Yikes!
I'm going to have to 'land' in the Creeper?
I guess it is going to be a really quick landing and take-off.
(The pilots call that a "touch-and-go".)

Thanks for the tip - give me a couple of minutes...make that a few minutes...to try.

You can survive with OC in the Creeper for quite a while, so don't worry. I often do it to charge the final totem(s) while bridging.

[DethbyIT]

All right!
Thank you both - I managed to survive.

On to the next one from "ItsFunToLose".
