Limited resource challenge map, not easy but not too hard, this is my first map so nothing special and it's not perfect but everything works as intended.

This is one of my favorite maps that I've found posted recently.  I didn't like the reactor limit of 20 or sniper limit of 4 at first, but I gradually saw why you imposed those limits - it increased the value of having more territory for collectors and using the PZs for the snipers.  Not sure if the game would have been more or less fun without these resource constraints, but I usually don't like resource constraints and this was a case where I felt it worked.

Not sure if you intended the game play like this, but...

Spoiler

You can land your command node in the top-left, blow away all the spores, get the Thor, get at least 4 power stored in the CN, then have your CN go to the southeast, building a collector along the way to get the Berthas without landing the CN.  This made the map very easy.  I actually never used the Thor, but I definitely put two Bethas on two of my PZs ;)
