This level is very chaotic. So chaotic, in fact, that every AoO is here! Try to defeat the creeper with a horrible starting base.

I thought this map was actually more balanced than the description would infer. It's a tough start, but given a freeze + convert right away makes multiple PZ's pretty accessible early on.

As a player, you'll have to decide (or just experiment to see) if destroying the most powerful emitter is more important than destroying multiple emitters to get some usable PZ's.  Very smartly done, Tricky!  ;)

Thanks for the cool map!  ;D

I just made an as horrible starting base I could manage that still gives some key starting buildings, then I added the AC emitter cuz the level was too hard in my opinion.  That AC emitter then became a bit too strong, but in the end it balanced out quite nicely. The chaotic part refers to your starting base, which is a total mess with more holes than certain cheese brands/types.

Thanks for saying 'Thanks for the cool map!'! (Yes, I did that for the exclamation point grammar too)

Heh, you're certainly welcome, m8! I really appreciate you guys that take the time to make clever maps... I just don't have that kind of time anymore. I really appreciate how different your maps are with respect to both structure and difficulty. And you're making them faster than I can play them!  ;)

Thanks for your hard work & dedication!  ;D
