Take over an uncompleted opperation to eliminate the Creeper from deep underground. This is my first map ever - be as critical as you like!

Thank you for this map. I could never work out why I couldn't get reasonable scores with experimentals, but this nicely pointed me in the right direction.

Thanks again.

Glad I could help - not sure how! - but you're welcome!

I love experimentals, but they're hard to incorporate into a map.

They either unbalance it and the make the map too easy, or they're pointlessly available when you don't need them.

Having said that, there are some awesome maps with experimentals out there.

I wanted to create a map which allowed you to play with experimentals easily. The Dark Beam is ready to go - you just need to meet it's power requirements - and the C-Bomb tech is readily available.

I love C-Bombs and I created this map simply so I could set loads of them off!

I only gave you the one mirror so as not to make the map too easy, and incorporated a couple of tricks and traps to keep you on your toes.

The weakest part of the map was my use of drones.

I'll try to improve my next map...


Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.
