Great map! A unique idea well implemented.

Love it when someone takes the time/trouble to put in a little story...and some humor.
Thanks!

Great map...I liked that it was a clever map with some different ideas.

One thing that bothered me though (please understand that this is about as nit-picky as a person can be and not something that detracted from the map) was the spore tower.  With the "pitcher" throwing the "ball" to the tower, it was obvious that the tower was hitting the ball to the outfield.  However, I destroyed the pitcher before the tower.  It seems to me like the tower should no longer be able to hit a ball to the outfield since it isn't being pitched any more.

Like I said...nit-picky! :)  I really did enjoy the map.

I totally agree, it is a little irky to see the batter still batting away after the pitcher is gone.

Also... if you start without deploying units, the pitcher will pitch, but the batter won't bat (no targets to hit).    Once my CRPL is stronger, I may drop a v2 of this map, with special runners for players and other little touches.  And maybe 'foul balls' that drop AC from time to time. ;)
