Wow - that was a tough one! Almost didn't dare to clean the digi around my two starting islands...

Thanks for another great *CLASSIC* map

Greetings from The Shire!

Hm, is there an 'easy'/fast way to do this? Like BilboGCL, I barely dared clear the digi and basically spent hours of gametime just being stunned into near uselessness, struggling to do anything. But maybe I was just being inefficient with my build, rather than there being something clever I could have done. :V

The fastest time is still 46 mins so doesn't look like there is a fast way as such. I got cannons up straight away though and kept digitalis away from the first island. A bertha on a PZ is great, then just guppies and smash and grab atatcks on the islands.

Just discovered this map and it has become a favorite. I managed to knock about 11 minutes off the best score and think there is likely another 5 minutes to be taken off of it. Berthas on power zones help a lot, but the biggest improvements I found were figuring out the right sequence of islands to attack and fighting on multiple fronts at once. Save the bottom left island for last unless you want to deal with exploding digitalis.
