Quote5 MINUTES TO PREPARE
ah shit, here we go again (proceed to prepare 10+ hours)
Hmm...I'm a tad stumped as to how this is supposed to work. No platforms, no Greenar, no air, no Microrifts, no Porters, the distance is too far for ERNed Pylons, there's Crimson breeder/land, and the spores only target the hold objectives. Moving the base is the only option but then if the other side needs packets, it's probably hosed. There's probably some sweet spot where the creeper cap is utilized at some distance away from the emitters/crimson.
I dislike hold objectives anyway and severely dislike Creeper++. Much prefer to nullify everything.

The creeper cap was actually a mistake, I never hit it until I was rebalancing the map and forgot to remove it before uploading. That said this strategy would probably work on this version of the map.
Big hint for the main idea behind the map:
Spoiler
Once built, a factory can collect wares and distribute them without a connection to the lab.

Yeah, I figured that out right away. But then lost the hold objective due to spores.
