Sleeper game mode! Fight a creeper with abilities remarkably close to your very own command center... As game time progresses expect surprises and twists that will make you panic--and then think like never before. Can you best this new Creeper enemy?
This map was a lot of exhausting work but it's come to a close and I'm pretty happy with it. I think this map could use a few balancing tweaks which I'll introduce in later maps but I'm satisfied with the balancing and mechanics overall.
For people who are interested in these sorts of maps you can visit this post (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=18407.0) to find more like it or find some tactics and strategy to help you win. :)
Edit: Urrggh, it seems that just like my last map the opening chat didn't happen when you loaded the map up even though I included it. Can anyone confirm that they don't get a starting transmission? :\
Nullified it again in the first minute (it was easier than last time) ;-)

Strange but the enemy CN is not shooting at my units at the beginning, it starts raising buildings instead.
See my more detailed feedback in the Sleeper Game Mode (http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=18407.0) topic.

I found that the enemy CN wont shoot t the nullifier but will shoot at units. I can also place the nullifier straight away before the CN has even landed which allows for the sub 1 min time.
I played the first version the traditional way and really enjoyed though, it took me a realise how to fight the enemy units, I found strafers very useful!
Great map, thanks
