A reworking of previous star map but as a PAC. There are various ways onto the middle island and lots of different ways to beat the map. Have fun #PAC
nice one.
i rly like how good the ride through the line in the middle works, feels like star wars ^^
Dude, awesome job with this map! I remember the original one too - was that your design? Either way if they allowed us to give a map higher than 10 I would. What's really neat is it's a huge map, but for some reason it wasn't very laggy. Not sure why but I was very happy about that.
If I had to pick between this map and a free pizza... it would really be a tough choice. And I'd probably have to ask what kind of pizza before I could decide. The map is just that cool. 8)

Gotta love Star Wars (Insert Darth Vader music here: DUN DUN DA DUN DA DUN DA DA DUN). Gotta love pizza. Unless there are salty anchovies on it. ;)
Cheers guys, yeah both the stars are mine, made them both at the same time but never finished the PAC one as testing a PAC map takes me hours and I just couldn't be bothered!
With lag I find the key is not to have too many units, if a PAC map has a few upgrades loaded on a forge you do not need to squash in a million units in order to make it harder. For this one I upgraded range and fire rate by one, energy by a few, build speed and packet speed by two or three.
Wow, you not only run missions as the Master of Faster, you make maps from the Shrine of Design! *Hands Dom a trophy*
I'm glad you're on OUR side, fighting against the creeper. Otherwise we'd all be doomed ;D
For you newer players who may have missed some of the classics...
This map is just over 5 years old, but IMO this is the best PAC map I've come across (I think I've played them all, but I'm not sure).
Dunno if that's helpful or not - maybe everyone has discovered this map anyway. Anyway, hope you enjoy it if you haven't played it yet.
Thanks Johnny! I just tried to replay it and have forgotten the lost art of PAC!! Love to see some more of those.

Master D0m0nik created many so fascinaying maps. My favorit - Mars series. :D
P.S. In Japanese "Thanks" is "Domo". Domo Sir Domo-sama! :)
Domo Shukun Yum!

You're certainly welcome. Yeah, PAC maps are really fun - on average a bit more challenging than CSM maps, but the CSM maps are more relaxing and (for some reason) more satisfying. At least I think so, I dunno.
I went back through the maps I'd rated as 10 (just 40 out of 2100+ maps, it seems... I might be a bit too strict on my ratings, lol) - this was one of the most memorable so I thought I'd share with some of the newer players.

Well, if you love PAC maps and you made THIS one then you could just... um... well, you know right? ;) ;D
Heh heh... j/k. I'm thankful for all the work you and Yum and others put into making cool maps. I know it's time-consuming to make maps and especially more so to make great maps. So yeah, no greed here - just gratitude. ;D ;D ;D
