Desc:
Disaster! Now Sam has gone away on a mission and there's a pretty nasty storm forecast.
Worse still, Speed's still away, skiing in Switzerland and Nuke's gone down with a strange sickness.
Will the Head Honcho get Sam back in time? He's certainly got a puzzle on, here.

Mort's 'phoned in, said he's stuck in heavy traffic and will be late but there's emergency equipment in a back shed somewhere.
Blaster, he's gonna be in later still - had to be taken to hospital. A close call - crashed his high-powered BMW.
Where did Sam get to? Believe LA, get his 'copter pilot licence.

This map contains one particular spore wave that is a manifest expression of extreme sadism on the part of the maker....

However, after that, kindness shows through and the player

may happily mess about for ages (like I did)

to set the right conditions for the closing stunt.

You do not require luck to beat this map.

5 out of 5 and then some.... Thanks!

As a consequence of the work involved in this map, I have a half finished Medium version.

If there was enough interest I could finalize this and submit it.

As a preview, I could say that a certain member of the 'Team' not mentioned in the Day Off duo that I have just produced is included.
(Name begins with T)

You could have posted Mr T

underneath Mr Sam

perhaps they weren't on a mission, just skiving off to have a beer somewhere...

... to give a little more leeway in the final stunt.... but otherwise, no, please leave as is...

Will do.

Yes he comes in just when you need him most but then, by definition, would have rendered this not Expert.

ha! - I thought you meant Mr T as in

Mr Tech
