Hey, Tero.

You said my map was too easy, Could you explain?
Is it to short? Did i give too many starting assets?

Thanks.

I thought it was a pretty decent map.  No, it's not terribly hard, but I don't think maps necessarily have to be hard to be fun.  This is not an Insta-win map by any stretch and you do have to progress forward.  About the only thing that made it "too easy" would be the AOOs.  It's possible to collect all of them at the beginning which makes it fairly easy to take out the enemy. 

Still, I thought it was a good map.  Nicely done.
Omnipotence doesn't mean the ability to do what is logically impossible. It's possible, therefore, for God to create beings with the kind of free will that can choose between good and evil, but he can't also force those creatures to choose good. If he forced their choice, it wouldn't be free.

Thanks mzimmer74 for the feedback.

I'll take into account that the AOO's are easily collected and
will make them harder too collect next time in my maps.

Thanks again

With a Terp I improved the walls around both LZs.  Affording time to build reactors and upgrade the Forge. 
What would make this challenging:  Invert the elevations.  Move some or all of the totems farther from the lower LZ.  Tech limits are always good.   Move the green wall.  Or make it smaller.  Build sequence can have a lot of depth.

This is a good map.  But not one I would need to restart to get a foothold.
