I finished the map, I just didn't chose to post my score.

As to your spoilers,

You can't land the guppy anywhere close to the forge so you can't repower it. As you pointed out you can use a collector in a PZ to power it later however this means you can't use a PZ for the air unit you recommend later on.

I generally don't bother with air units since they are the least effective weapons in the game.

Micromanagement might be fun for some but not for me.

While it might be considered rude it did get your attention and others who like these type of games responded with accolades (that might not have happened if I had not been rude) so overall IMHO a win/win.

Thanks AlexX for this map - a challenging start, but also options to ignore most of the map haha !
So many restarts on this one, trying to find an optimal strategy.

I think the midgame is what makes this map super good: you can altogether skip midgame with a precision attack, you can have some midgame but then go for the throat or you can play south north normally

EDIT: Or you can be an idiot like me and delete the guppy, then it's collector on PZ after long fight.

EDIT2: There is a pick up trick for the nullifier, hehe

no Loren - no tricks - nothing hidden...
u got the tools - use them :-)

I played this map and have determined that this is a lie, there is no way to cross the digitalis to get the final emitter, having only 1 guppy means you can't supply enough power to clear the digi and even using power zone relays it is too far to bridge. Once you move the 1 guppy you so graciously give we lose to forge since there is no other way to power it. So this is an exercise in futility, If you are trying to suck the fun out of a game this map succeeds.

Cheers

Just because you can't obviously figure out how to solve the map doesn't mean you should be rude.

Spoiler
the elevated bug nest has ac. start the chain reaction and wait until you can craft a landing platform with the terp
[close]

For the rude guy:

Spoiler
if the guppy is lost - you build a new one. insanely tricky
[close]

Spoiler
you can power the forge from one of the pz. indecently tricky
[close]

Spoiler
you can clean the digitalis with air units... that's so absurdly tricky
[close]

Spoiler
you use a terp to get to the last island on a pz... that's questionably absurdly tricky
[close]


@chwooly: reading this makes me really wonder what's going on with you
