Desc:
surrounded creeper wave
Amazingly well calibrated start.
OK - looking at the scores, most people seemed to find it easier than me, but I found the start to this one HARD :o
Spoiler
Only managed to survive by creating 1 mortar close into the game and circling it around the four "landing pads" surrounding the OC area while I built up reactors...
Once I survived the beginning-trial, I couldn't be bothered to play for time and just overbuilt to max before crushing the creeper in the "wings"...
Thank you again Mr B. :)
My time is not really better than yours, but I may have a better strategy for the beginning :
Spoiler
If you put them at the right places, it's possible to survive for quite a long time with 4 blasters. Long enough to get two mortars at least.
