That is a beautiful 'finish' shot, but I can't even get started.
Trying a variety of Blaster/Mortar combinations, but can't get past about 4 minutes.

Am I going to have to use <shudder> Drones to survive?

Hmm. I think those light bulbs were defective, they only give out a sickening yellow mist. Their safe disposal required quite a bit of energy.  ;)

@DBit, 3 mortars should be enough to defend.

LOL!
Because I always forget they are there and don't put them to use (user malfunction).

I finally survived - with 6 Blasters to start, but it took forever.
Thanks for the tip on mortars - I'll give that a try (sure can't do much worse on time).

Spiff - I did the 'backspace' trick to show you the final picture, but it didn't work this time. Pefect symetry - but you'll have to take my word for it (no proof).

OK - lost (improved) about 12 minutes the second time.
Might have to try it once more (just to beat Spiff).
LOL!
