Another Helm's Deep map? Why not. Don't use the Terp unless you really really want to. PS You also have to nullify your reinforcement's spawn points to win. You'll know it when you see it.

10/10, love it! Big fan of the books/movies and this is a fitting tribute. Only problem is it won't let me post my score once I complete, no idea what's going on there.

[Karsten75]

That might explain why, after all this time there is still only one score. Do you see a message or some indication at completion?

[Builder17]

Invisible crplcores what do nothing? Whoa!  :o

It completes fine and takes me to the scores screen but when I press submit it just falshes once and then does nothing, kind of like when you have limited internet connection. It thinks and then decides no!

*Facepalm*

The title was corrupt, I fixed it, will ask V to fix it in the DB.

[Karsten75]

Try uploading scores now.

[D0m0nik]

Yep, had to close the game and reopen but worked, thanks!

[Johnny Haywire]

Absolutely loved the map! Excellent work, Thomas!

And Dom... man, you are a beast. It took me almost 8 minutes just to feel secure enough to begin nullifying the enemy. You didn't even wait for Gandalf to come storming in!

Maybe I'll try another run at this. The map is certainly enjoyable enough to play through twice!

Excellent work, Thomas! Three enthusiastic smiles up!  ;D ;D ;D

[D0m0nik]

Haha, cheers Johnny!

I started with 2 CNs behind the walls and as soon as my collectors were finished and a few beams I flew a CN to get the two aether packets and then flew it straight back. If your quick you can get some important upgrades in before the second wave of spores.

I completed the map but it didn't end. For those who don't know, in order to trigger the victory condition, you must

nullify all the invisible CRPL cores on the left side of the map.

Edited to say, if I had read the description for the map I would have known that!! Oops.  :-[

[Johnny Haywire]

Meh, don't feel bad. I actually DID read the description and when I killed the last emitter I was confused because the game didn't end. That's one of those many "Oh yeah, duh!" moments. It's all good.  ;)
