Why does it look like the Korean Peninsula?  ???

Probably/not a coincidence.

Either way, I thnk it was intentional.

Nope. And with the Japanese sounding "Arisawa." I feel this is getting close to the racial harassment rules of the game. It has to be more than a coincidence.

Yeah, i kinda agree.

Also, his second map: Pearl Harbour. If that doesn't reeked of Japanese supremism (sp?), I might just be over thinking things.

I think you are overthinking that one, It would have been done the other way around with the particles inside the harbor.

Guidelines:

Spoiler

1) HQ can be spawned at the right side of the map to claim lots of energy
2) Once enemy energy mines are built, they will attract enemy particles
3) Ships like tankers can be used to build ships and omnis anywhere, even outside energy mine range
4) Omnis can go on suicide attacks

Walkthrough (can surely be optimized):

Spoiler

0) Put two gems on "move/build speed" and "energy mine production" techs, and put two gems on lathes. Put two other gems where you like it.
1) Drop HQ on the right side of the map to claim lots of energy
2) I think that your particles can hold initial assault by themselves, but, just to be safe, build lathes, cruisers, wolf and marauder very close to first energy mine
3) Wait for things to calm down
4) Build tanker and sneak it to right side of the map. Go at absolute lowest possible position. It will attract some particles, but most of them would go back. HQ can shoot stray ones.
5) Assemble your fleet on the right side of the map. Sneak ships from the left side or build them on the right side. Don't build MK7 ships or turn off their MK7. Left base is safe without any ships.
6) Go for rightmost emitter with your fleet. It's agressive, so pause when your hammer gets blown up and use another ship to shield your lathes. If unsuccessful, retreat to the right side, rebuild your fleet and try again.
7) After that you can destroy two stunners with lathes. Build omnis in space with your tanker and drop them next to emitters to destroy them.
