A mixture of slog, puzzle and #CRPL-experiment, read the intro if you don't want to be too surprised. Have fun
Troll maps should be banned, This is one of those types of maps. After you take out an emitter another appears in another location behind your lines. So you never get a chance to actually get a base built up. To be honest I expected better from this map but I see more and more of these maps being made for the maybe 5 - 7 players that enjoy them.
JMHO
Cheers
Hi!
Are you sure, that you want this kind of map banned - I understand that you don't like it, that's ok. But be assured, it is a) not meant as trolling and you can b) build a base and loose only some units if you aren't prepared. And, as you said, maybe there are a few people who like that kind of challenge (There are obviously also people who really like to play i.e. Sorrontis' maps, I only do so when I want to see myself loosing...)
And to be honest, it would have been nice when you'd put that what you call trolling in spoiler tags.
And, to my defense, it is not "take out an (as in any) emitter and get a new" but one special emitter that is more or less (probably less, I have to admit) addressed in the opening dialog that something might happen when you destroy it.
Greetings from The Shire!
This is not a troll map. It makes the player mad, but one can assume the mapmaker wants that. :) I guess, after a fashion, you posting here to complain about the map is an accolade the map maker desires. :)
Not sure what I want to be honest, I posted right after I got my hat handed to me by that emitter, I guess I was looking for a challenging map but a fun one as well. Which you usually provide. So yea probably banning is way over the top. There are a few map makers here that I avoid completely, As Karsten pointed out they wait for the rage post then giggle hysterically when they get 1. I know better and yet allowed my frustration get the better of me.
Cheers
Here, get a glass of beer (or whatever you like) from me and: CHEERS!
(And no, I do not giggle when someone looses a map, indeed it's all a game and we shall have fun)
Excellent game! :)
