Botswana.

Started well - surface emitter and drones - but they were easily attended to and it became a standard map
Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.

Would you/could you edit your first post and list all of the countries from the UN link?
As they are completed, you could line them out and make it easier for us to see who's next on the hit list.

Thanks,

I'm working on Saudi Arabia, and I think
it should be possible, haven't quite got
a foot hold yet, but I'm using Kithros'
strategy he used here.
To fight back the Creeper all you need is. . . What? Energy.
My maps CW1 are located here try out my MIS series.

It is indeed possible, let me know if you want any hints to how I did it - I don't actually have a dark beam running, but since I've nullified both emitters at the surface I consider that good enough to say it's possible.

When I slide the LS back and forth over that Shield to the left, there are no packets getting through. There must be something simple about that process that I don't understand.

Spoiler
There needs to be a shield (ideally 2) above the surface for that trick to work. It relies on the fact that shields keep creeper out of their interiors to continue sending packets out to underground targets even after the surface has been completely overrun.

Another fun map. Up-left gravity and upside down building, lots of separate chambers with fields.
Power. Power! I must have more POWER!

@mthw2vc - thank you. Good trick to know.

"Albania" is done. Fun start and the first few minutes are worth playing.

Woo-hoo!

Lots of activity today!

Sorry, gonna be AFK for a couple of days - going out to the family bach (holiday home) to get it ready for summer rentals. My sister is in Australia and my brother is in California, so see if you can guess who has to do all the maintenance and manage the lettings..!

Got a job list as long as my arm and no internet connection out there!!

Will update everything when I get back.

Nice idea re: list of countries DBIT, great work on Saudi Arabia guys - be sure to let me know when someone posts a score!!

Have a great weekend (it's Friday night already here!).

Heh! No Internet connection is exactly what I look for on vacation. Enjoy some REAL surf time while you're there.

"Algeria" done and was an OK game, but nothing special.

Andorra - worth playing. Kind of an awkward setup - not hard to beat, but perhaps hard to get a good time.
Angola - Good one for you 'Experimental' weapons users.
Antigua and Barbuda - skip it.

The Philippines is kinda fun. Upside-down gravity and moderate strength drones.
Sorry for the late replies.
