Having needed quite a few restarts before getting the opening to work, I might just have to skip the less-easy-version of this :-)

Spoiler
very early in the game: built a sniper an kill the bugs behind the wall. This will start a chain-reaction

Yikes!
Glad this was the "easy" version.
Now, where is the "fun" version?  :o

Glad to see you experimenting with a lot of different concepts, and hope you get back to making maps with all the game pieces available.
Tackling this one with only 1 Cannon and 0 Mortars is just a bridge too far.

See you at the next one.
Thanks,
H

It is pretty easy if:

You stick to 3 PZ berthas and only PZ bombers

Good tip, thanks.
I think I should have started with something easier this morning.
To quote Arnold, I'll be back.

this was a superb map!




It was also like having chickenpox as an adult, and boy, I've tried that.


EDIT: I read the comments above about some chain reaction occurring. I restarted the map and had to handcuff myself in order to prevent m-rd-r. Do you guys have the key to the cuffs, please?

Some words are picked up really quickly in online posts by sensor/monitoring software.

BTW, did they have that television series "Murder She Wrote" where you live?

I suspect that "m-rd-r" is masking the English word for "Mord"...but I am not an authority on English (or even American).

LOL!
