I have mixed feelings about this one. On one hand, it is highly annoying to have to build siphons for only 1 energy. It's counter-productive.

On the other hand, I don't know how else you'd simulate trees, and having to clear land in order to fight some battles is a realistic concept.

Overall, I think this is a good map for what it is. People will likely freak out over the spore threat, but if you just play offensively instead of defensively there really is no threat at all. The spore tower in the lower-right was the only one that managed to launch and after I began my initial offensive I realized a player could go the opposite direction and prevent that as well.

For you newer players, if you can't seem to figure out a map please don't get angry and assume the worst of yourself or the map-maker. Just post a question in the forum and usually someone will at least offer some helpful hints, if not the actual solution.

Thanks for the map!  ;D
