I enjoyed the map, I thought it was laid out really well (I even assigned the techs like you asked).  The only issue I had with it was the dense creeper at the top.  I understand you not wanting to have the experimental  weapons on this map, but even if you had provided a few c-bombs to deal with the letter section, it would have made the top part a little bit less of a slog.  That being said, I found the map as a whole very enjoyable.

I agree with the previous post. Cool map, but would be useful a few c-bombs.

It started out really good like a good looking chick who takes you home. Then it just goes on forever like a good looking chick who has you at home and only wants to talk about her cats. Once again I'm happy that my TV is next to my computer.

1. A field viewer would have been nice to plan out strategies. (I had to look at the map in the editor)
2. Too much Creeper in the top words. Even if you use the trick of pushing the Creeper into the tubes while stopping it with Shields in order to make it flip, it's still too long.
3. Forcing me to dig 100 Ore that I don't need, give up precious terrain that I really do need (for energy), and then watching a 100 Packet Holocube activate which gives nothing useful at all (not even points), in order to finish the map = FAIL.

Other than all that it was great. On the plus side it's not a Yum234 map. :P

Just a little gentle ribbing for Yum. Maybe if you all ribbed him a little also, he would make 1/2 as many maps that are 2x as good. :P

most of his maps are fun to play, some aren't but i prefer encouragement with some constructive criticism to ribbing, less chance of someone being annoyed  ;)

You should talk when you have made 1/2 as many maps as he has.... :P
