High tactical stress. Find your way through the fortified zones to surround your enemies and cut off their vitial supplies. The maze is real and there is no use trying to cut corners, the path will be obvious for those experienced to PAC Hint* Whatever you do do not open the wrapped package in the center PAC Enjoy!

Please help me!!
I love PAC maps.
How do I start??
I've been trying to reach the first pz for half an hour, but I can't.(((

I need some help too!  I also love PAC maps, but I can't even get to the field generator right next to start...  I have tried all sorts of terping ideas without success now.  I would appreciate any tips to get started!

To start, you can use the terraforming tool around the cannons to block their line of sight. That should be all you need to get the first two power zones. You can also right click with the terraforming tool to remove preset terraforming orders which should speed things up.

After that progress will be slow until you eat your way through the walls to the first totem and get some power to your field emitter tool.

Dude, awesome map. Easily one of the best PAC's I've played, and that's even considering that the terraforming thing can be a bit annoying and runners are my second-least favorite unit in the game, next to shields. Even with all that, this is a perfectly-executed design. Great job, dude!

Thanks for the map!! =)

Thanks for the help!  Made it through a very epic battle.  Can't wait for the next one!

If your talking about the upper left island then the next step would be to go south to the mid left island using spores.


If you are talking about the upper left square of the upper left island, you have two to three options:

With the three totems you should have enough power to just barrel into the PZ cannon, but not before (remember to connect the totems with digitalis to claim their power).

Alternatively, use two spores to cut off the energy supply to the cannon and to spread your digitalis.

A third option if all else fails (which I'm not entirely sure is intended), is to use the terraforming tool and the keybind to copy terrain height to make a 10 high wall around the cannon.


In either case ignore the right side of the first island where the berthas are targeting (other than just quickly grabbing the powerzone).
