Beautiful map. I haven't been able to get a foot hold yet but it's gorgeous.

This one was hard!  The spores are a royal pain, they kept firing on the cannons I sent out to try to clear areas I had killed all the emitters.  I never managed to actually use a cannon to clear any chunk in order to use it's PZs to kill other stuff.

I finally managed to get the chunk below me, it became much easier.  When I got the chunk to the right it was then a routine mop-up although it still took a while.

HeyHo!
Nice map! On first sight, I felt like I had to buy a toll sticker but I managed an early spore defense, so everything was fine!
I enjoyed it a lot, thanks!

The PZ to the west is not in the void

If you're struggling with this map, there IS an easy way to deal with it. A lot of emitters and spore towers can be sniped by flying or landing the CN and nullifying whatever you can. It takes a while but there's very little threat that way. Clear some PZ's that don't have creeper, then when you're ready you can build beams and put them in PZ's all over the map, then power them up with guppies. Not the way I'd typically approach a map but as big as this one is I figured it'd take a long time anyway.

The design of the map itself is superb. There area lot of threats, yet at the same time you can safely land and even take out a few islands without much of a struggle. The spores are pretty much the only threat although the runners are likely going to be your greatest annoyance. Once you can handle the spores, your challenge is pretty much over. Just gotta clean up after that.

Thanks for the map! =)
