That last amplifier didn't stand a chance.  My emitters were putting out about 4,000 as I closed in on it.  Never had much use for the factories.

Thanks again yum!
How do you design these levels? Do you start with an idea, and build around that?  How do you design the progress of the level, so each part is winnable from the next? I am curious about your process!

Thanks for question and you are welcome!  :)

I start to create CSM map usually without some idea. Just create started part of map so that it will be interesting to play for me myself. Then play and test this part. Then add new portion of terrain, units and small interesting idea of gameplay etc. Then again test. Depends on my mood it can be 2-3 portion/iteration of map per day. For all map it can be more than 20 iteration within one week.

Yum, with your maps I always like what I get AND I get what I like!  ;D

Yeah, the powered upgrades are very, very strong in this map - gotta love it!

So strong, in fact, that they're all you need. No other upgrades, bomb factory, portal blocker, or even gates are needed to win. Gotta love the simple beauty of beautiful simplicity!

And as for your explanation of how you design these maps... wow. You are a meticulously marvelous master of map-making! Thank you SO much for your diligent labor on these maps. The effort and thought that you put into them really comes out in the final product. Excellent work as always!

Thanks for the map!  ;D ;D ;D
