Brilliant map!  The best avenues of attack and most immediate threats are well disguised.  10 from me!

Loren - I am useless at these but this might help:
7
Spoiler
It is worth terping a few areas up to 9 to stop the eventual overwhelming of creeper near your base. It is also worth sendimg an early terp to seal off the top right yellow as this frees up a blocker. I think I secured yellow first then used terps and guppies to get my landing pad down to 1 and then went right. There are also some booster things (the blue x1/-1 things) that can be fed by guppies and really help.

Loren, here's a few ideas I used.

Spoiler
Get control of the 2x multipliers as soon as possible.  These have a huge effect on the power of your emitters.  Placement of a blocker and early control of a couple of gates are critical to using the multipler in the northeast corner.  Yellow is the key to the map.  With yellow and reasonably strong emitters you can control the southeast corner and then attack the other colors.

I almost asked the same question.  It has Yum's "digital fingerprints" all over it.  Hopefully it's the first of many from "machine234".

Terping to 9 doesn't stop either of the threats that killed me.

If you can

Spoiler
get control of the yellow gates like they said, you can use a block on the red gate near the 3 switch. If you mostly keep the 1 and 3 switches off unless you need it, you'll slow down some of the creeper that wants to get to you from the northeast side over the little raised area to the north of the start point, and if you're really swamped you can also block the brown gate there. Some selective terping to 9 also means that when you do have to partially expose yourself to large amounts of creeper it doesn't overwhelm you immediately.

After that you can use blockers/terping to get to both bosses through the gate/door complex on the east side. You're definitely under a little bit of time pressure, so getting yellow under control expeditiously is helpful.

Initial version of map was with 1 (one!) Blocker unit and it was almost "mission impossible" game!
Who like adventure can try to play again this game with using only 1 Blocker unit...

What amount of AC triggers the +2 totem right at the left of starter emitter? -4 wasn't enough.

Got wrecked so many open paths for those 1000 emitters that their 1000 creeper came and destroyed my 100 or so emitters.
