You and me both.  I've tried this map at least a half dozen times.  I've loved every other PAC map so far, but this is the only one I can't seem to finish... or even start for that matter.  I get the first few islands and can't seem to push any further.

I think I'm just going to have to skip this one.

Guys, don't give up! This is indeed an extremely challenging map. I was stuck at the same spot as most of you for the longest time. But after peaking at the spoiler hints and trying again and again, we were able to have a break through. It's well worth it. Once you take either the island below the guppy pad on the left, or the "Y" island, it's smooth sailing from here on out. Believe me this will be a very rewarding win.

Spoiler
One of the things that broke me out of the rut is to send a bunch of spores into the void/gap separating my island from the one I want to invade WITHOUT TURNING IT INTO DIGITALIS. Then set the force field pushing away from the target spot in the void. Once the spore lands in the void, the field will help push it onto the target island and kill off a cannon or two. Once that's accomplished, I turned the landed spore into digitalis and conquered the island. To overcome the beams, I aimed the spores very close to the NEAR edge of the island so the spore would land with minimal beam contact. Often times this helps kill the beam tower quickly.
