I originally thought these maps were gimmicky, but it turns out that the Stargates are some of my favorite CRPL maps in CW3.

BICKFORD or "Bickford fuse" in this game:

Spoiler
If You send anti-creeper through green gates this anti-creeper will be like "matches" and initiate chain reaction in line of flip emitters.

Good luck!  :)

Thanks for the kind words! I've enjoyed tweaking the scripts and yum has been doing a great job making fun maps that incorporate the elements  ;D

We have been working on some new additions to the series that I think will allow for maps that are less of a steamroll after you capture the first few gates or towers, as that has been a common complaint. They should be appearing in Colonial Space soon!

I really enjoyed this map, it's always fun examining the map and deciding which portal groups would be best to attack in which order.

Yes.
Sequence: Cornucanis Style maps, Stargates, Black holes, Bickford...

What will be next?  ;)

Please, wait a little! New "dishes" now cooking...  :)

Cornucanis is our grand chef and I'm just a experienced waiter.  :D

Another fun map, For some reason I don't mind having to restart these, Kudos to Yum and Cornucanis...

And just a side note, Your are more like the Sous Chef to Cornucanis's Executive Chef. He creates the dishes and you make sure they go out looking and tasting good.


Cheers

OK, I'm usually relatively good at CW, and rarely need to find a strategy online, but I'm stuck on this one! I created this account only to ask this question!

Where do I go after the green gates? I have tried multiple strategies (trying to get through the purple gates, at only 1 point, or multiple points) and other colors too; but it seems to go nowhere  :-\
Also, compared to the other maps of this kind, I found that there is a lot of waiting at 4x speed (like the chain reaction after the green gates)... Is that normal? I mean, I tried waiting for like 20 minutes at 4 x with the strats I described above, and while I see a VERY slow progress, I don't think that's the strategy, to let the game run for a while night...

Please help!

Also, I love those CSM maps  ;D Good job OP!

Big thanks for your first post in forum!  :)

My strategy of playing this game after taking green color gates: yellow gates, wait a little time, then red gates and then violet gates.  Screenshotes in attachment.

Good luck!  :)

P.S. I don't know how to attach screenshots inside spoiler. Sorry, please!
