please play this game: the first upload contains an idiotic mistake, of course, on my part.

Any hints???

[Loren Pechtel]

I don't get it.

The whole area is under anti-air, you can't build guppies to bring the AC up to the area in the north.  You can use the Bertha shots to clear a landing but the only weapon you have is AC and you have no way to get it up there.

Spoiler

you have to make it possible to land

Anti-air doesn't prevent units from flying hovering in, or command nodes

[close]

Not bad though a little one-toned, "build 30 sprayers, send them over, explode", repeat until you reach the inhibitor.

Everything has it's own "area" and can't be connected from another area so didn't see a point in limiting relays.

Allowing the bertha's to recharge would make it faster :)

I'm stuck on the right side of the top of the map. None of the relays will reach. I'm currently swimming in an ocean of AC up there with nowhere to expand to. More hints?

Spoiler

did you take down the exclusion tower that has to be removed? then you have to start over with guppies in the north too

Screenshot shows my current status. I killed that one AE tower but that was no other AE towers are still blocking everything, and none of the relays will reach the other area.

I see a spot on the left that I can get guppies to. I think I can take it from here.

good luck

Not bad.
A bit straightforward, there is only even one sensible place one can invade (at a time).

If anything, you provided 2-3 more relays than really needed :)

This map would be hard if one forgot that sprayers dump their payload if destroyed.

YES! BUWAHAHAHA

I love it when you're racking your brain trying to figure out what to do and then you see it. Most maps never do that, but Martin's maps always usually make you think. I say "usually" because sometimes they just frustrate me so much that I attack one of my fellow inmates and then it's back to the blue & green pills and a couple days of solitary. But this is one YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE. I mean with your real eyes. Nothing's hidden in some mysterious code or anything.

Great job with the map - thanks for making it! Oh, and thanks for all the AC! =)
