ok - let's say it's a medium difficulty map
Another great one!
when I read "a medium difficulty map", I actually thought that it means that most normal humans need not to apply, but this was actually fairly easy ;)

15 spores towers didn't wipe me out, when one managed to say hello

Hello? ...or AMEN
Another epic and a fantastically designed map. You must spend so much time into making it look that good. Loved it. Managed to get away first time although it was a bit tight at first. Not easy and on balance would agree that its a medium difficulty. Securing the bottom three islands took most time. After that, taking the top section didnt take so much time. Great job!
Hello
sorry if my question seems dumb but there must be a trick I did not get as I cannot take down the last two islands with a tower and emitter. Despite all my efforts with terps I only have one room to build a nullifier but cannot feed it power, be it by relays or guppys - no room to build or land.
What did I miss? Thanks for any help
it's not a dumb question at all
there are two ways of doing this
1.

you can fly the CN back and forth until the nullifier is built and fires
2.

you can do the guppy trick - as explained in this map: https://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=34724.msg200886#msg200886
of course, deleting sprayers in the air above your target and using bombers/strafers helps a lot too
It worked (I used the guppy glitch), thank you !
WOW! great map... AND - what a fun set of puzzles it was.!!!!!

Hover Check list - Landing spaces cleared north and south ready to fly and hover the command ship... Wait till after the battles are done... Moving the lone command ship stops energy and AC generation.... Make sure straffers and bombers carry enough ammo to suppress the last two emitters... OOPS... Forgetting to load the Command ship with lots of energy wastes a lot of time...
Then .... this morning... Happened to glance in the Forum to reread and enjoy the complimentary comments... and reread the note about this map being medium difficulty... Noticed a new posting and a link to a "glitch"...WOW... CW3 elite players have developed skill sets that I have never imagined...
Neat trick... could have used it to take out the upper NW corner emitter in the early game when I had spare sprayers and bombers sitting idle...
Thx 4 all the comments and support!
