Testing the ability of combination of custom ships BIG SHIELD, TANK LATHE and FastBOMB in media with red structure and delay of start time of some emitters.
Game hard or maybe very hard!

ATTENTION: Version 1.02 of PF game is required!

Photos of custom ships in attachment.

Your feedbacks are greatly appreciated. Good Luck! :)

P.S. Attention, please: game need micromanagement (maybe annoying) when You deal with FastBOMBs.
P.P.S. Hint:

Spoiler

If You put 2-3 omnis in left/up and left/bottom lands You can protect red emergent from left
and create safety central part of map. ;)

WOW! Very stable number 1 rating (from the end) among all maps! :)

So hard start?

Strat of game not so hard. Hint:

Spoiler

At the start all energy better to use for building OMNIs (at least select "land production", "omni reactor" and "omni cannon") and FastBOMBs. Send firstly to the left/up land 1 omni (then additional 2). A little later send to left/bottom land 1 omni (then additional 2). So You can protect left part of map from creating red emergent.
In central part of map using cheap FastBOMB You can protect central land from creating red emergent and get stable position. Then step by step build BIG SHIELDs, TANK LATHE, one by one pickup new ships etc.

What the hell is this?

No. Just no. It is impossible. You have 3,000 particles attacking the center part within the first 10 seconds.

Just a few seconds after taking the second reactor you are completely overrun.

Rude.

47 downloads and 1 submitted time, That tells me all I need to know about this map. I don't need to look at 1's or 10's.

I think I see the problem. You said that you delayed of start time of some emitters. But after starting the map I see every emitter going at full power right away.
That probably broke the difficultly level of the map ???

The fastbomb neither is fast or bomb enough to hold off the waves between explosions.

Just a few seconds after taking the second reactor you are completely overrun.

First 4 min working only 3 emitters with total 1500 particle production. Then +1 emitter (500), after 1min one more (500).
How to start - please, see screenshots above.

How about no?
This is your game at 21 seconds:

WOW! It is strange. Maybe Your version of PF game not recent?

I have non-Steam version 1.0.2b2.

GoodMorning · October 25, 2016, 06:29:02 AM

You are running the 1.02 beta, then. Most people will be running the non-beta 1.01 build, which does not have Emitter delay implemented. When 1.02 comes out of the beta branch, the map will be winnable.

I don't know that the description can be changed to note that V1.02 is required after map upload.
