Control your Thor. Came out a little easier than I expected, but that's not always bad.

A very fun creeper-exploding map. Tough start, satisfying middle and end.

The beginning is easy

What's there to sacrifice?  I lost everything on the islands to the first round of spores anyway.  The only PZ you can reach at the start is a fake one anyway--it's hanging over space, you can't build on it.

If you play it right, the spores will never fire.
I built on the first PZ. It was very useful.

Put a nullifier on the first PZ, then put a command node in between the CN island and the nullifier, which allows you to get rid of a spore tower. Then put a cannon on the PZ, put reactors on the CN island, and build out. Disable everything but the Beams on the Thor so you don't waste ammo, and set it to Stop Resupply until you can get the energy needed.

I just put a collector on the PZ.
