Another 10 from me, fantastic work, loved it. Taken individualy the islands are not hard but multi tasking 3 keeps you on your toes. They were also balanced so that I finsihed all three at pretty much the same time (bottom slightly quicker) but kept all of my Berthas focused on the top island and supported it with guppies.

Thank you again!
Interesting - I thought I made it that you could only play it one at a time... Why I re-released it with all 3 CNs in place to force you to play them simultaneously. where did you land your first CN to be able to grab the pick-ups?

Hi John

Some great maps recently by the way, loved this one a lot!

If I remember correctly:

Spoiler

I landed the first one bottom right, built two collectors and then returned to oribt.
Landed 2nd CN top right built one collector, returned to oribt.
3rd CN top middle and then guess what, returned to oribt.
As they then became available I landed each one in turn, top left first, bottom left second and middle last.

First of all, I am really liking your maps! You have a good knack for putting things together in a interesting & fun way!

I did the same thing as Dom as far as getting all 3 CN's but I actually would have preferred being forced to work each world independently, which is what I ended up doing anyway because it's less stressful and doesn't require pausing. You can land a CN on the middle lane and just turtle it without having to watch it much, and I liked that. This map would've been fine with a single CN too, and being forced to work the lanes independently and/or be creative with guppies.  ;)

I especially liked that even though this is a big map it played just fine at 8x speed which is unusual. Typically, anything above 4x lags like crazy. I'm not sure why that is but I appreciate however you're making these maps! Three smiles up!  ;D ;D ;D

You disagree with this sentence, don't you?
