Interesting trick with the

double nullifiers!
Thank you!
I'm consistently surprised and filled with admiration by your maps Martin :-)
This one has me flummoxed. I can get the nullifier but am unable to kill the red overlord at the bottom.

I have the single Relay but either it's a red herring or I cannot think of where to use it. As far as I know, as single Relay is only useful if the Command Node is over a PZ.
Thanks for all the work you do to keep CW3 fresh and challenging.
you have to

be able to fly back and forth with the CN and fill it up with lots of AC.... build forge north....
thank you for kind words and for playing!
yes, I did that but it seemed very inefficient and that there must be a better way but perhaps I am too impatient!

I can wait until the creeper starts to evaporate and then start sending over sprayers until I make a safe space but it seems like it will take an unusually long time (for your maps!). Can the Relay help somewhere?
relay is just a pick up, you won't win without it. Other than that, it serves no purpose

Yes yes to all this and mORE! Just the right amount of trickery, and nothing too crazy. Power up the hidden nullifier, obviously, and then AAAAARGH! I forgot to fill up the bottom part with at least 50-deep AC before I moved the base to the top island. Thankfully I'd saved it right before then (always with Martins maps this you do) so it wasn't a problem. Enjoyed the battle to hold the bottom island and defend the top island from the oozing creeper after stuff died. Really fun!
Another great hit!
Thanks for the map!! =)
funny thing is that I've used so many (evil) tricks for my maps, that most of the time I can't even remember the very basic idea of what to do in an older map.
Same here. By looking at it, I'm like, can someone please help me? as I'd be as clueless as you guys are, should I ever try to solve this again!
Lol, that sorta makes me feel better.
Until I realize that when I pick up a pair of pants I used to wear 5 years ago, I can't seem to figure out how to put them on. Guess I just forget those kinda tricks too! =P
