Hey Don,
Nice map. I'm looking forward to more in your series. :)
I've given up, tired of sending bombs on the Nexus, doing no damage... can't figure out how to get rid of it.
you need to be hitting the nexus with one or more dark beams, and keep detonating conversion bombs next to it. there must be 0 creeper (any amount of AC is OK) under the center of the nexus and the only way to do this is to create a grid of db's criss-crossing the nexus, think a tic tac toe/ 0&X's board and build the cbombs in the gaps, loads of c bombs (with 3 or more db's it's easier as the beams will keep getting broken so sometimes the grid falls apart if a mirror gets hit, multi db's means less cbombs getting destroyed by creeper / drones)
good luck
reply/pm me if you need a screen shot of what i mean (if you do i will reload and screeny that mission)

The approach for any nexus is the same as for the Nexus in Day 20. You have to "drown" it in anti-creeper for the dark beams to destroy it.
Yay! I do so hate battling a nexus and wish people would stop putting them in maps. So you can imagine that I absolutely love maps that enable you to destroy a nexus before it activates! In that case, the map is more like a speed run challenge / puzzle.
