Fun puzzle map with unfortunately a bit of a lame solution. Just thought of a way to finish even faster; I might try this later on....

hmmn.. kinda cheap tricks isnt it? i thought maps like this weren't suppose to be published anymore, but perhaps there is a different solution.  ??? anyone got any ideas?

Yep, it's rather cheap, but we might see more of these now this has become common knowledge. I don't think there's a different solution, but I was thinking of finishing faster by moving the city forward in the supply line. Building would stop temporarily, so I'm not sure if this would work.

I am guessing there is something hidden off the map.... not sure though but I can't seem to find anything hidden. I only see 2 places to move the city and I have been both but didn't make a difference I can hold the creeper forever just can't connect to any of the new tech...

This map is so lame that i wish it deleted.

Honestly, map reviewers, you should check the artifact texts for offensive text and reject maps. Like the one in this map.

I just checked and it says: "I think you are smart ass". Not sure whether that should be considered offensive. I'm not a map reviewer any more, but I know all texts (and other content) are being checked thoroughly and I don't believe this text would be a reason to reject a map.
