Can't win it. Did someone increase the strength of emitters?

This one stumps me too.  I tried various approaches of building, reaching for tech, moving the city, mortars, blasters, but couldn't find the correct combination to survive.  It's always simple after you find it!

I believe we are all playing the same map.  Whenever you edit/save an existing map, it gets a new internal ID.  So you can't, for example, post a map, wait for some scores to be recorded, and then edit the map the make it impossible and replace the original map.  Instead, the updated version will appear as a separate map.  The site uses the internal ID of whichever map you are playing to post your score to the corresponding version of the map.

A few players might have a "cheat" version of the game, but from the number of scores posted here, this map appears to be hard but solvable.

I just downloaded it and it is beatable... simple after you find it indeed! ;) Must say that I was pretty tight on energy, so I can't guess for now how you could be so much faster... I guess I overbuilt.
