Wait till you see what happens when the creeper comes back to reclaim the playground...

"10/Fav".
Possibly the best fight you two have done so far.
Much fun.

Don't give up the playground!

Spoiler

The western island is easy to take if you use the limited real estate wisely. Take out the lower emitter with a quick nullifier and you're on easy street on that island. Land the second CN on the NE to capture the 3rd CN as soon as the game starts so you can take the SE island.

Depending on your strategy, this map can either be a long slog taking one island at a time; or a fast one if you don't mind some multi-tasking and take on all 3 islands at once.

To keep the south east and south west you can always put a terp on a PZ and either build or a wall or make the power zones a little taller.

PMouser -
Your comments don't give us anything to work with.
If you could do an "F12" screen capture near the end of your game and put it here, we might be able to give you specific advice.
I was fighting 3 different battles at once on this game and the pieces I used were different at tall three.
Posting a screen capture is the best way for you to help us help you.
Thanks,
H

I'm probably the only one dumb enough to have not figured this out, but just in case there are others... the limit of 3 nullifiers is only restricted to three at once. Once the nullifier fires, your available stock returns to 3. So you don't have to try to figure out how to finish the map with only 3 nullifiers for the entire game.

Taking control of the entire map without using a single nullifier makes things a tad more difficult.
