New map by D0m0nik Hardish map with potential for multitasking, guppies and a right old battle/slog. Or you can turtle.
3 heads of AngryDragon. Looks nice! :)
Next will be Dragons from Mars? ;)
Thanks Yum, looks nice but may not be too popular this one. Bit of a drag if you are not a whizz at multi-tasking!
First score came in, 1! I thought I'd at least get a 2 for the graphics! ;D
Not easy! Especially evil 10 Spores Tower.
Hard but managable start!
Spoiler
(I used the western island and the north-east and east islands as base, lost almost one island due to insufficient beams but managed to keep it... I needed one guppy for the small spore tower
and the thor was welcome to clean up. So, a nice mixture between speedrun (start) and turtle! I had fun!
Greetings from The Shire!
Yes sorry Yum. I made this one for myself so it is not very nice. Gad you had fun Bilbo!
Spoiler
I started with one CN left west, one in south of England and one South East. After collecting the pick up on the SE I then moved it to the east middle island to get the terp.
There are a number of different approaches possible, just depends how much micro management you like.
I played it the same way as you, Dp. Thoroughly enjoyed it! As mentioned above, the thor was very welcomed for the cleanup!
This was such a great map! Gorgeous, challenging and apparently a lot of different strategies are possible. I started on the three eastern gargoyles and prioritized getting the aether pack from Wales before it flooded. Might actually play it again.
Thanks to the author!

Thank you all, very kind :) :) :)
I am still waiting from You new PAC MARS map! ;)
If possible...
Not sure if I have the time or the energy for another PAC map any time soon, they take me days to make and test, I'm not the fastest map maker!
Thanks for reply! :) :D :)
Mr. D,
Wandering through old maps and found this thread.
Beautiful graphics and a good reminder of how England has been (mis)treated by her enemies to the East.
I will save and try this one as soon as I get a decent time on your newest offering.
Thanks,
H
Thanks H. You may struggle for time then this weekend, just posted another one. ;D
Sigh...
All play and no work is the best part of retirement.
Thanks,
H
