You also can see the AC ,Creeper ,your builting. I think this map isn't very well. You'd better place your commander on the bule place. Finally,I hope you will like this map.

I really enjoyed the start of this map. I thought the spores were well-timed and the danger from the creeper was decent enough.

The idea of not being able to see the terrain is... well, it's interesting for a while I suppose. Peanut-butter-and-ketchup-flavored tortilla chips might be interesting too, but I can't imagine wanting to eat an entire bag of them.  :P

And I think that's where this map goes wrong. Once you're able to set up a defense and victory is assured there's really no reason to have to hunt down every. single. little. pesky. emitter. I walked away for several hours just to build up enough aether to make the gameplay more tolerable. And by "tolerable" I mean "I took some aspirin so when I pull out this 3-inch-long splinter from under my fingernail, the pain will be tolerable".

I could probably write a lot more about this map, but since the point I'm trying to make is - "Less is often better" - I think I'll end it here.

Thanks for the map  :D
