Somehow, "Rock, Paper, Scissors" comes to mind whilst reading your description.

Come on Helper...  I didn't see a score!   

What's up with that?   :)

I'm at 12:08.7 and working it.

Had to pause to do a flag presentation for a local Cub Scout Pack (priorities!).

I'm curious why you add all these shields to some of your maps. What's your thinking with that?

Surprisingly challenging! I *did* find a use for at least a few of the shields, though...

Spoiler
Disable all of them at the beginning, and use them as throwaways to protect against any spores that get out before your rays are ready.

Thanks Stave, I didn't even think of that idea.

Also,
Spoiler
they make fine fodder for the runners to stun while your other units can go unstunned.

True indeed. And pastor you're going to have to play again since I beat your score by a minute.  ;D

I saw that.  I thought you should keep the win on this one.  There will be others though.  :)

Blessings to you my friend
