My first one...

Hope it's difficult enoght.

Note:
a) 10 Spores will come after you and you should take them out without delay.
b) There are hidden friends you have to rescue under the Motar and Sam Tec's!

not sure what I am doing wrong but this one seems to have me a little stumped no matter what I try I can not build fast enough to get to the survivors before they die... any hints?

Use the resources at hand. you have weapons near the emitters you can use. Time them well, and you can buy yourself time.

Also, dont split your resources. Focus on building the energy line to link the survivors.

I am sorry I just don't see how there is enough time. I am not close enough to even think might get it. I have tried this about 50 time each time trying to vary the time when i destroy the mines to keep the creeper at bay. the closest I have gotten is still 1.1 relay left on each side to reach the survivors. or. first spore attack time 1:31 left..... it only takes 1:29 for the creeper to get the survivors.....

ok still doesn't seem to matter what i do i lose the survivors at 1:29 seconds and I can not even buil 1 line of relays fast enough to get 1 of them i don't see how this is possible. maybe i have a bug or something

thanks but I have that already

Can someone post a screen shot of how you built to get to the survivors before the time runs out?

OK, I tried - I'm not the best player, so there might be a different strategy.

I used my 3 upgrades I collected along the way for all the building improvements - Energy, cost and speed.

I also judiciously detonated some of the mines spread around to prevent the emitter in the lower middle from destroying the supply lines.
