Great map!
Funny, but there were a several things I did in a "wrong" way:
1. I missed collector on the first island, so my CN was flying back and forth to destroy most things there.

Spoiler

2. At the end I realized, that is was possible to relocate forge and CN, but I never did that. Not sure if it made my game any harder.
3. I missed a spot for the final batch of guppies, so instead I destroyed the forge and was sending guppies from there (left-top island), this was hard and required a lot of preparation, since holding creeper without upgrades was hard.

wait, again -

Spoiler

did you get the collector pickup without relocating?

[close]

also, how did you make the final kill?

oh, and THX for playing!

Every step was rather obvious, but you have . to. be. methodical. every. step. of. the. way.

Very nice map!

I completely ignored collector on the first island (single collector, not the infinite one). I simply missed it, noticed that it is there later, after picking up infinite collectors.

also, how did you make the final kill?

Spoiler

Prepared the "last" island by building 10x walls to separate two lines as much as possible, also built walls to seal 5.0 emitters. Built lots of cannons there. Then destroyed the forge that was in the top-left island, built reactors and guppy there and used that guppy to build the final Nullifier.

Setup:

...built reactors and guppy there and used that guppy to build the final Nullifier.

Shall we tell?
Ok

Spoiler

Altren, you do realize you could have just built a bunch of guppies in the SE area, set their dropoff for 1 square next to them?

This way provides a LOT of stored power, allowing you to build the nullifier, and maintain all of those cannons keeping the creep at bay. No need to build layers of walls and whatnot.

While I did collect that collector, i ended up not figuring out what it was there for. I collected the infinite collectors upgrade before I found a use for the one additional.

OMG, I can now see how easy it is to pick it up in an unintentional way...

I still cant understand why your maps are low score. Its simply gard-ish and need thinking. I really enjoyed it. Thank you Martin!

[Martin Gronsdal]

Thank you for playing!

[paco42]

nice map. i spent way too long trying to figure out how to kill every single no-fly zone before realizing that was silly

[Martin Gronsdal]

Hehe, inhibitors are useful that way

Thank you for playing
