Who builds a giant, analogue clock shaped mechanism of inscrutable purpose? Well, Someone, apparently. It's probably not a good sign that it's running backwards and fighting itself. Or that the side that wants to kill you is winning. Fighter: Lasers. Bomber: Mk7's. Riot: Dischargers. Flagship: Tender. Missile: Self-Explanatory. The rest? Find out. :)

I went through about ten test passes on the difficulty of this, and I must admit I'm still not quite happy with it, but I'm starting to get a bit too good at the map to really be able to get a good idea of how difficult it is for someone coming into it for the first time, so I think I have to call time and say this is close enough. :)

I hope you enjoy.

Spoiler

The 120 mine is completely unguarded giving pretty much instant access to a huge amount of power and an easy way in with omnis! Once the omnis do their worst you can just rush the big ship and game over.

Really cool map though, I played it the normal way as well and rally enjoyed it, very nice concept with the clock.

Glad you enjoyed the map playing the intended way. :)

On the other way... Oops! I took care to block the progenitor off, but  somehow didn't even occur to me about the mine. Ah well, lesson learned. :)

I agree, a very nice map.

If you ever make a sequel, I could PRPL you something for rotating hands.

I'll keep that offer in mind, thank you. (Though I should probably just make time to learn a bit of PRPL myself at some point- I keep meaning to and getting distracted.)
