Just started playing and you start like this...

Spoiler

First land one CN on the pad. Then (at the same time) land the second CN on the right upper corner of the island and build a collecter. It worked for me!  :D

ty, that broke it for me

[yum-forum]

WOW! Again I missed out this possibility to get "tech"...
Game will be more interesting if You play without using my mistake. Please, use as weapons only beam and sniper
and You will obtain helps from Nest.

P.S. In game  exist 2 zone of "Bickford surprise".  :)

Not sure about what approach you hoped for, yum. First area I took over was north island anyway (by take over, I mean sniping till there's more AC than C). From there I got nullifier - tech I obiously need to continue - and cannon, that placed on any PZ, pretty much wins the game for me. So even without backdooring, I get north tech pretty easy. As for that in the middle - you dont need it at all, although I tried to use sprayers, they're slightly annoying and slow, when you need to collect AC from the ground.

Sorry Yum but all tech is up for grabs early.

Spoiler

After collecting the cannon and nulifier you can fly the CN south to pick up the sprayer and strafer. You have plenty of time to pick up the cannon and bomber with three collectors from the left CN

The map made for a great speed challenge, you get to fight on many fronts at the same time making it another very interesting level.

Great map, perfect amount of strategy and planning (slog and cog).

I got some of the techs early, but just missed the sprayer, had to get it a bit later.  I started by building about 12 reactors, found the energy was just enough most of the way through, but none to spare.

While it's apparently possible to pre-empt this map can be beaten without getting it early.  The bugs to the SW contain anti-creeper.

Edit:  I went back and did the map without using a single pulse cannon.  I also did it without the singularity this time around.

I followed Yum's instructions - he said, "Relax, please" so I did. And this is a great map for that. Grabbing the cannon/nullifier and even the middle-sprayer tech seemed like a no-brainer, pretty relaxing stroll of just flying the CN around to check out scenery. You should buy the property to the left though - prime real estate located next to a nice 3-hole golf course!

Two of the "enemy" runner nests are really friendly cab drivers who will give you so much AC you won't need to work anymore. I retired before middle-age and just sat and watched - hypnotized by the frantic frenzy of all the workers running around with no real purpose. But alas, at some point even the most relaxed retiree needs SOMETHING to do, so I decided to mosey around and set nullifiers to end  the charade. It was a bittersweet moment when the last building of workers went up in a blazing flame of nullifier nothingness.

Yum - GREAT map! So many choices - you can rush-pause-rush-pause or just sit back and pick at stuff. Enough of a challenge here and there to keep it interesting too!

Thank You!  :)
