Limited resources and space, pods and a bit if a rough start. Enjoy, and please leave a comment.
Nice to see a map of you again! :) I'll play it tomorrow, because I won't have time tonight.
Hmmm, I see 2 people already failed miserably and translated their lack of skills into 1 star for this map.... :-\
This means it's probably exactly the kind of map for me! ;D
Ok, you win. I am completely and uterly stumped ???. And by the amount of scores, other people are too :D. I have tried multiple tactics, and have gotten to the point where I can keep the Creeper from getting to the survivors, but don't have the firepower nor energy to branch out.
OK, I guess first off.. I should have rated the map much higher, but once the survivors are saved its easy.
secondly.. those pods are safe for quite some time with those mines.. don't use them till u absolutely need to.
third.. OC is also safe for a long time.. build on your strip of land to maximize the amount of reactors u can have before going.
yes there's more to it, but try that out first.. if u need more help just ask.
Oh. Woops ;D! I completely forgot mines can be detonated manually. That helps :P.
Great map, it was the most challenging I have played in a while.

Thank you, I'm just glad someones been able to finish it. :)
I've played it once and saving the pods wasn't a problem at all (I didn't know the centre mines were stacked, so I assumed only 1 chance to help me out). When you're out of mines you can always fly in a blaster and let it fire a few shots into the creeper threatening the pods.
I wasn't close to finishing however when I reached the 13 minute mark, so I restarted. When I don't make it on my second run, I'll just submit it.
Keeping the survivors safe, is not the hard part. It is getting off the thin stretch of land you start on that is the hard part, and once you do, your using every bit of energy you can get which does not leave much (if any) energy (or blasters) to keep the survivors safe. So you want to do it as quick as possible, reach the survivors, then it starts getting easier...
I just finished it and I actually saved one of the pods about 2 minutes before I charged the totems. ;) I overbuilt again, but I'm still satisfied with my time. :) Nice map!
Edit: I think the difficulty is not that far off; I'd rate it between medium and hard (probably hard for less experienced players).

oh good.. im glad u enjoyed it too! it doesnt matter how long it took u.. at least u finished it. :)
Puhh, that was a peace of work ! Builded 9 blasters and then got to go, try to clean one area, bit by bit. I would rate it at least hard !
I think you cannot go any faster, really fast I think.
WOW that was FUN!!! It took quite some juggling, allright. Once I secured my position, I guess I took it just too easy... I could surely do better, probably around 18-20 but not that much faster! Nice map, I'll give it another go!
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do you manually detonate mines?
click on the mine and either click destroy (lower left) or just click x
