Yikes... I steel feel wet from that goo. Well done Nilar! :)
i cant do this on the energy you give us. what to to? ty
On this map i found
Spoiler
building 2 cn in the creeper was a viable stratergy. I never needed the third, so I used it to charge totems.
The first two emitters are weak, so
Spoiler
you can hold them back with a pair of blasters each. I built four each and a mortar.
I then put the nullifiers
Spoiler
in the safe powerzones.
I had enough energy left over to
Spoiler
build build seven reactors and a forge in the safe area.
In order to start on the next emitters, I put reactors
Spoiler
in the safe power zones, I moved the mortars to the new power zones, and built two shields. Shields work across walls.
Speed run!
5:43.6
Too fast for me. I wouldn't mind seeing videographic proof of that, however.
I'll try to make less than 5 minutes : ).

Heh!
It was you I had in mind!
I didn't do a lot of energy optimisation so you'll easliy improve on it.

You and I? Two videos better than one. Besides our methods may differ.

Good plan, but I'm somewhat technologically challenged, lacking video capture capability - wheras I've watched your videos in the past.
Still, you're right, it would be interesting to compare play styles.
I'll post a few screen shots later showing play stages - not as comprehensive as a video, but still showing the road I took.
Alter Old - 2:55.1
Cavemaniac 5:43.6
You didn't even halve my time - it's like you weren't even trying!
As promised, here's a couple of screen shots, not giving EVERYTHING away...
You have no idea how much face palming those images led to. Of course that is how you get a good time on this map. I totally missed it.
