Desc:
My first map from scratch.
Land looks large enough, but you'll find it'll be quite tight, especially at first. Can you get two mortars up quickly enough? Can you get the relay? Plain sailing from then...
I survived countless waves of the 20-second spores since I had 8 SAMs...and then one somehow got through. Annoying.
Well, at least you got to the spore waves. I never manage it that far... :(
One of those maps that makes me so mad I want to break something.
Wow...that was a cool map. How on earth can this map be finished in 11 mins?
THis time I was *so* close, but I accidentally had my finger on the "o" instead of the "P" and so instead of pausing, nothing happened and I got swamped again. This is like an itch, I wish I could stop scratching. :(
I'm glad that people like it.
I might stop playing it myself, since I've got it in under ten minutes. My high is 8612, but I didn't have interwebs access to upload it.
How to:
Two bombers to hold back the wave and three blasters to keep things tidy
Once I've built the 48'th reactor, build ten more bombers
Eight bombers sent to clear the landing site, whilst Odin is also en route
Return, recharge bombers and use them to clear around totems, whilst building speed and relays
No need for SAM sites, as I connect before the first spores
There, that'll do. And a nice improvement on my last high score.
Dedication Pigster - 30 completions ;D
Nice time.
It's a LOT more than that, if I was going to be slower than my best I'd quit and restart.
I've played it enough now I think. I suspect I could shave the odd second or three, but doubt I'd get it under nine minutes.
Thanks once again to all who played and enjoyed (including all those paying after me writing this) - especially to those kind enough to give feedback.
w00t
Less than nine minutes.
I really must stop now.
I will beat this time... 8) :) Woohaa ! try to build reactors in the beginning. No need to kill the creepers at the sides...
