Fairly straightforward, but somewhat tricky, and very time consuming.

I don't see how one can do this. I can get the mortar and blaster techs and then fight to what seems like a standoff on my little island, but I can't find a way to progress further than that.
I found the trick was to move to the left side of the map as quickly as possible. If you charge up some mortars and blasters while surviving on the right side, you can clear enough space on the left side briefly to build and sustain a relay across the gap. Once you've taken the reactor tech it becomes easy. :)
That was really hard.
Excellent map. Timed well and tough.
Even though I hate spores they did add a nice element and were not overdone.
A nice idea and lots of potential, but spoilt by just how frustrating, irritating and difficult it is to bridge over to the upper left hand side of the map in order to obtain the SAM upgrade etc.
