The mining field is under attack you have to step in and save it !! Hope i have made this map balance so it have both pro move and chill mode.
I noticed someone had given this map a "1" rating... for the life of me I don't know why. I mean, yeah it's not an amazing map but it's pretty cool.
For one, like the author says in the map description, you can rush the map (the inhibitor isn't very strong and is largely undefended)... or you can build a defense.
If you choose not to rush, the map is actually a little challenging... I'd say about a 6-7 on a scale of 1-10. So if this map is too difficult for you, no worries... over time you'll be able to beat above-average-difficulty maps pretty easily.
There are a lot of spores in this map, and they fire pretty fast. So why isn't this map more difficult? Because not only are you on the high ground like Obi-wan, but you also have energy pods to give you a quick boost, and due to the already-built ore mines, the two spore towers to the right are super-easy to kill before they fire. Just be sure you build lots of energy at first and then build the beams. Don't try it the other way around... that's like trying to buy something before you can afford it.
Hypnotic, good job making the map! I really thought it was going to be super-easy, but I found myself surprised by the spores (!!) and having to restart and carefully pause a few times at the start to get a decent setup. I might try to speedrun this later but I found the casual way very enjoyable. ;)
Thanks for the map! ;D

I'm pretty sure that the quote from Lt Gen Honore covers it: "Don't get stuck on stupid" - or its corollary - "You can't fix stupid".
;D
I had fun playing this until I finished and saw the "AoO" scores.
If Forge/Totems are the best part of CW3 (IMO), then AoO are the worst (again IMO).
I really hate to open up a map and see those things.
Fun anyway.
Thanks,

ty Johnny Haywire for the support it keeps me motivated.

So the people who are able to finish the map quickly are (most likely) using the AoO's - one or both of them. ;)
