Desc:
The enemy has prepared themselves by fortifying their island with what seems to be an unbreakable defense of spore towers and creeper emitters. We have dispatched 3 warships armed to the teeth with resources and massive batteries of firepower. Stain the island with the blood of the enemy and utterly smash their defenses. For victory!

Another good map, stdout! that 25 spore tower hit me hard my first try, but I managed a solid defense the second time around and finished with a 50 strafer suppression tactic. 50 is a lot

I'm glad you are enjoying the map. I figured it'd been a while since I made a map, and even longer since I made a regular non-PAC map.

PH I see you've currently got the top score, congrats!

For my part, I never even used strafers when I played this. Now I'm wanting to go back and try again using those and see how it goes.

I was quite surprised to learn anyone had trouble with the spore towers-but then I realized that maybe not everyone grokked the implications of a whopping 2000 starting energy to go for what, on most maps, would be an impossible aggressive start.
