Dear player, Do you like your collectors and reactors? Yeah, that's what I thought. What do you mean why am I asking? No reason... #NoCRPL #NoSpores #NoDigitalis #NoRunners

Ok, Who hacked this account? This is not from Planetfall, It was too easy. Yes, I took 4 hours but not really, I just put it on 4x and kept walking away and coming back. Still overall I enjoyed this map, the only real question I have and it for most of the major map makers,

Why do you consistently put things out of reach? In this map it was the collection of 6 collectors and most of the reactors, I find most of the time these items end up getting destroyed before I can set up a decent defense and they are more of a teaser then anything else. In my mind that is the purpose they serve, just as teasers nothing more.

Anyway

Thanks Planetfall for a fun map

Those collectors are "out of reach?"

All the reactors but the rightmost one can be preserved, at least for a while, if you grab some AOOs early.
Pretty sure I'm supposed to be banned, someone might want to get on that.

Maybe not actually out of reach but definately for me anyway, not saveable. But then again it is my style of play more then anything else I am sure.

Doesnt seem very hard, you must rush in the start but once you build one reactor on PZ its just a normal game.

4 hours?  I'm not a fast player and I did it in an hour.

As for the spread out reactors--they're not worth defending.  If they die you can rebuild them in your base where they are easy to defend.

My time is a result of putting the game in 4x mode and once I was in a defendable position to walking away and doing other things.
