This is a difficult game that is going to take strategy to get through. I recommend saving the game along the way. For those who like a challenge, it is here.

A bit tougher than your usual stuff, but good.

Hit for those who are totally stuck: 

Spoiler

Spore towers do not fire on CNs nor nullifiers.

Brutal. I appreciated the

rare runners with AC loads instead of creeper.

Very tricky start until you figure out what you can get away with!

Thanks for the comments.  I enjoyed this map.  I wanted one that was a challenge and hope it fits the bill.

Sorry, I've done a better job now.

[pastor.healer]

RrR.... that is a strong fix.  I called Intel this morning and asked if you had received their time reduction software
for the chipset on your computer.  They said they know you well.  You keep calling them and asking for even
better clock speed adjustment software.  You have been found out...  :)

Keep up the good work!

Could use some advice!  Have I messed up by

not defending the digitalis in the lower-right corner?

Never mind! Managed to muscle through.  Great challenge.

I like the idea behind the map, but I intensely dislike the whole luck factor of sometimes killing enough digitalis to result in a runner death, resulting in complete overflow of one or more islands. It just seems to become a bit too much luck and not enough strategy (Or maybe I am just doing it all wrong)

If you are relying on luck on this map, then you have a suboptimal strategy.

On other maps, it pays to watch for injured runners on dead digitalis and briefly disable weapons so the digitalis can regrow and the runner escape.

I see this more as a strategy game than a twitch game.  I'm not a twitch gamer!
