this map is based on the great map #11462 by Sof... I hope I didn't mess it up...
Brilliant! I love the alternative take on the spiral thingy - it's annoying in a very likeable way! :)
Glad you like the map!
For long time i have not enjoyed CW3 map as this! thank you!
Argh!
Tried a different strategy, though I had done much better. Saved a whopping 30 seconds. The inability to turn off that golem at the start is very annoying.

You can select your CN and turn off ammo packets. That will allow you to focus all your energy on building. =)
As for the map itself, I really enjoyed it and felt that it only has a couple minor - very minor - drawbacks. Worst first: It's very easy - possibly your easiest map yet - and there's so much to pick up and clean up that after a while it gets kinda old.
Having said that, some reason in this map I really didn't mind all the pick-ups that much, although you could've perhaps dropped most of the reactor pickups and left the max at 20 to keep things a bit more challenging. The unit limits really did help by making those pickups all that more important, which I think is a great idea. The spores help to add a little to the excitement, and there's enough AC to keep it interesting without making the player overpowered.
There are so many different approaches to this map that pretty much anyone can jump in and have a good time. Definitely deserves the high rating it's received so far - you clearly put a lot of work and thought into this one. Fantastic job, dude!
Thanks for the map! =)
Magnificent, brilliant! An easy ten, again. Probably your best map yet. Great fun throughout. It is a little easier than normal but all the better for it I reckon as mere mortals can play. Please take heed as most of your maps are just a little too difficult for "normal" players.

Knew that once. Forgot it long ago. Moved up to 7th place on this map.
