this is my sixth PAC map. There are no tricks here, and it should finish the normal way regarldess of how you win. Please take a good look at the map before you start. Fight smart, not hard. Many thanks to Rennervate / AlexX for the PAC files, and for information on how to use them. Thanks to Mr. builder17 for useful tips. I'd appreciate your feedback in the forums... #PAC #Play As Creeper

and again an awesome PAC map, still logical and not too tricky. 10! :D

many, many thanks!

You need to put some kind of explanation in the map description or the Transmissions.  Clearly you think everyone knows the "not tricks" that you use for your maps, but literally all of them have had a "do something completely unorthodox" that is required.  And they all punish you for trying to take your time and learn anything.

[Martin Gronsdal]

on one hand I accept your argument. On the other, this map is very straightforward. That is, unless, someone is a relatively new player. But that's what the forums are for.

Feel free to ask for the solution here (are you even stuck?), and thank you for playing.

You are completely right when it comes to Martins usual trick maps, I stopped counting cancelling my tries and rating them 1 out of that reason, but here with his new PAC maps they are pretty straightforward - at least for now. There is a nice PAC guide at steam for several years now how to play them if you are new to them: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=466266597

I wouldn't even say this one needed anything unorthodox.  You can't win it by a straightforward assault but there are obvious weak points and the humans fold like a house of cards if you attack them.

His maps usually beat me but this one was pretty easy.

Indeed, once you check what part of the human presence gets which supply from where (or does not), it's not hard.

I guess we're just a bit triggered.
Martin keeps saying things are easy even if they are not, so we tend to not trust that even if he's actually right.

Lol, true. Martin sometimes can't figure out his own (older) maps, so I don't feel too bad. He's definitely a demented genius. I told my psychiatrist about him after playing one of his maps while driving somehow caused a multi-vehicle pile-up on the interstate. "It's because Martin is a demented genius," he told me.

Unfortunately for me, my psychiatrist tells me that I'm only one of those two things, but he still won't tell me which one.

Although, he did give me a new jacket to wear during our sessions. He said it was "straight" but I really don't see anything straight about it. Most uncomfortable, but at least I can hug myself. =D
