Quite easy fun to play
Looks yummy. Like CSM. :D
Where to put thor...aargh
Not bad at all, but I think I would have preferred it being like 30 minutes shorter? The puzzling was fun for the first half hour, but then I started getting bored, y'know? Maybe that's just me, though.

build a lot of guppies and then send the command node back to orbit, build the Thor with the guppies reserve power perhaps?
then deorbit the CN and win? 8)
I didn't notice that one could build guppies - but anyway: If there was, I wouldn't need the Thor anymore, and if I had sent the CN to orbit for such a long time, there wouldn't be enough energy to hold off the creeper until the Thor's build time is over.
I have to say I liked the overall concept, but once you have enough weapons and energy to keep the spores at bay, the scenario should be over, because then it's just alternating the advance of relays and weapons, so you don't have to think anymore (unless you want to do a speed run, but I guess even that gets repetitive).

i agree, i dont actually remember if guppies were in game either, and personally on maps like this i often get to the point where i can win for sure then give up and play a map i can complete in a reasonable time!
xhos, great concept but perhaps make the late game a little faster? still thanks for making the map dude! 8)

It's toooooo long, that's right.. Didn't thought it well how the late game would be more intresting or faster.. :)
