A fun little map, with new CRPL tech. This may show up later. Let me know what you think on the forums. Have fun!

You want some orbital lazorz? I'll show you some orbital lazorz! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xBwhqNhy_o)

Admittedly, this was quite fun. But were the green things producing some kind of field? It seemed like most of my AC was clumping up on the sprayer instead of flowing onto the machine.

This was fun. Even more fun was finding I'd chopped the previous best time in half without trying hard.  :-[ (Didn't look before starting.)

Spoiler
Once I had a decent infrastructure and a few freeze AOO in the magazine I dropped a guppy fed assault into the lower left and made my main attack with much PZ assist.

what map is that from? It seems old, since the map name isn't displaying in the top as it does with newer game versions.

An unreleased map. I don't think the map name displays in the editor anyway.

I killed everything outside the digitalis zone this way but it wasn't really of much help against the volcano.

One thing I found annoying was the need to build all the way over to the corner of the map to get the last artifact.

No, the green things collect the c/ac.
Again, thanks for the feedback guys!
Thank you Planetfall for the idea! How do you set the type of AOO though? I saw no command listed.

Unreleased and impossibly hard. At least, for many of us.

Should have known it would be that simple
