If it's my fault for saying it's too easy results in more of these levels, I am totally unrepentant!  TOO EASY!  :P
Many thanks MG!! 

(a couple of tricks in this, had to repeat it a few times!)

Yes I know I need to pick up the nullifier.. what I can't figure out is how to get to it..

EDIT: as I write this, I realized there was something more on this map.. sigh.. not sure it will help me much though, but will give it a try :)

Wow, thanks for making Martin make this map, Weasee! After playing through it the first time, only at the end did I realize that you can totally

It's rare that I speedrun a map, but I was happy to go all-out and see what was possible in my second attempt. As it turns out, I went about all-85% and got a time that you could probably shave down another minute or two. Maybe even more but I'm not that much into the pausing and such.

I really like that you can take the slow, methodical approach (which I typically prefer) or you can go all Castle-Wolfenstein-blitzkreig-schnell!-schnell! on it.

IMO, this is the perfect blend of "mild trickery" and strategy that makes for some of your best maps - and the most enjoyable maps out there.

Thanks for the map!! =)

*grabs the 5-gallon keg which was quickly tossed in the air*

LOL! Wow, dude. I was thinking shave it DOWN a minute or two, not shave it down *TO* a minute or two.

"Impressive. Most impressive!" Excellent job, m8. Masterfully done in the spirit of Alter Old & EA3401!
