Yes. Of course, I know. What is it connected with this question?

My apologies. It was a poorly worded hint for players that might complain that not enough AC Drones appeared on their maps.

I was pretty sure you did know.

I can ask Virgil to remove the comment.

Thank You for answer. Sorry.

Number of AC Drones was calculated to be enough to win this game. But You are right. If play slowly and not attack
AC Drones as soon as possible will be situation as You explained!
Previously (when I created this map) it was version with generating of too much AC and in some
time flow of AC converted in strong Creeper!  And in this version it was also interesting as funny surprise.  ;)

I attack the ac drones at least five seconds after they appear. I can go about half the way before there are no more ac drones.

Whats the trick???

Greetings Cybertom

BTW I dont think that this is an "easy one screen battle"

Thank You for post.
Scenario:
1. Take techs and use it only for upgrade to maximum packet speed
2. Build many reactors and 1 micro-rift near LS
3. Build 1 blaster as soon as possible and attack drones
4. Build on the way several (4-6) micro-rifts for more quicker destroy of terrain.

Really map easy. Pls try again.
Good Luck!  :)

Thanx for the help. With your help it is easy. But without it can be very frustrating.
I did all you write in point 2, 3 and 4. Butt without upgrading packet speed there is no chance.

Trick map = fun cause it doens't repeat like other series. I don't hate your maps Yum, i just don't like your repedative ones, like the "Battle Field" series you had. Kind of the same concept each time, same layout, just trying to help. Don't repeat the same concept 10 times. :)
All of my maps take a few things:
1. Patience.
2. Saving often/trying different things every time.
3. Knowing that the simple is always wrong.
4. Love for your great Angel who spends hours and possibly days on maps that people hate. :D

I had to slow down some of the AC with shields to prevent it from converting to creeper.
Power. Power! I must have more POWER!

Just made a recording of my best attempt. It seems a few others are still faster.

Really easy but also extremely long. Dont think I have passed 90min game time before.
