Yes! I finally saw it yesterday after I posted the question. Thanks for replying. I think this was an original and fun map.

Quite the edit!

Thanks for having fun with my map. Finally figured out the craziness of this map.

Hard and long, but interesting!

 

Definitely 11/10... :-)
because of the originality. Great map. Thank you so much for making it. It's taking a while...

Wow guys, thanks for that! I don't do many maps but occasionally I see one I could make "worse". Glad you both enjoyed it more than you hated it! =D

Very nice map, but please somebody explain how to power the nullifier next to the inhibitor. Thanks!

There is a guppy in the lower right that you can use

Pretty tricky start, but straightforward afterwards.

Getting the tech:

Spoiler

Just land a CN nearby. Some of the caches already have the necessary collector/relay.
You can land on creeper. The CN will survive for a while.

[close]

Landfall:

Spoiler

Put the nullifier on the island, power it via guppy from creeper-infested land. The guppy will survive for a while, you can choose if you let it return and heal before it dies, or let it die and rebuild.
You'll need to land two cannons for actual landfall.

[close]

Energy shortage:

Spoiler

You can afford three, maybe four cannons. There are three stacked terps on the small island, you can power them from the right and create flat space for a CN to land, build collectors and two guppies to help power the actual front. This will allow five cannons, barely.

[close]

Reaching the second emitter:

Spoiler

Five cannons are barely not enough for the final push, but a shield will help just enough.

[close]

I didn't use the mortar tech, just clearing out the creeper with Berthas and the cannons proved to be easy enough.

Yeah, that'd definitely work. I love timing the spores so they all hit at exactly the same time, but if every PZ also had a beam there's no way that'd work. Not a big fan of hidden units, but on a PAC it makes sense. If you don't hide the units, there area  lot more PZ's for the player to use which would make it too easy.

Thanks for the tip! =)

Great map! Thanks Martin for the tip.

Martin? I've never been so insulted in my life! Well, actually maybe I have. Ok, yeah now that I think about it I've been called worse but I mean still, that's pretty low. What's next? Sorrontis? =P

Very nice speedrun map, if you like that sorta thing.

I'm glad I didn't look at the forums first - managed a decent time all by me onesies on my first try. I see how Dom got his time though since I probably built about 10 nullifiers and tons of other unnecessary stuff.

If you like a good speedrun, you should try this one. If you beat my time, I'll buy you a faster blue turning looker idea.

Thanks for the map! =)
