And would love hear how people solved this. Maybe there's better way than what I did.

ac bombers with one ac income from nodes? really?

#

told on the other thread that I tend to create maps I don't like

tired wraith Sep 16, 2022, 11:00 PM

#

I can see a solution that will maybe run for 15~ish minutes. less if it all works properly

#

(but holy shit will it be annoying to do it)

#

I suspect a lot of people will find this map harder than "medium"

bronze shadow Sep 16, 2022, 11:19 PM

#

I thought that was the length

tired wraith Sep 16, 2022, 11:19 PM

#

ah

tired wraith Sep 16, 2022, 11:44 PM

#

fire wanted to say something but probably just went to beat the mission first in like 7 minutes xD

#

(I wouldn't be surprised since my estimate was pessimizing it)

tired wraith fire wanted to say something but probably just went to beat the mission first in...

5:55, I was going to say I had a 6 minute strat, kind of regret not calling it in advance now.

tired wraith Sep 16, 2022, 11:48 PM

#

we probably have the same strat, I was massively pessimizing

#

I don't think there's a lot of wiggle room for fast completion

doh slash wow

#

shield drop?

tired wraith Sep 17, 2022, 12:10 AM

#

probably more like spike chain

mystic flax Sep 17, 2022, 12:10 AM

#

I did shield drop.

tired wraith Sep 17, 2022, 12:12 AM

#

I didn't really consider shield dropping for anything but last 3

#

should be possible to extend spikes/platforms to the rest in realistic time

bronze shadow Sep 17, 2022, 2:00 AM

#

did you drop all same time?

tired wraith Sep 17, 2022, 2:03 AM

#

I doubt he synchronized it. probably sequential sprayer deletion into shield drop

#

as they reached destination

#

time taken is likely to prefill the shields

#

my own plan was to drop the last 3 emitters like that but I am reading a fanfic atm so didn't go through with it

mystic flax Sep 17, 2022, 10:31 AM

#

I dropped at the same time; you can't sustain 8 shields so you need the drops synchronized to not run out of Arg.

#

Lots of mistakes; I was worried about the creeper waves pushing into my territory so I spent most of my AC on defense. This led to only 1 set of sprayers with the drops; I also could have used more porters.

bronze shadow Sep 17, 2022, 7:03 PM

#

That's amazing, I didn't think that'd be possible.

#

my solution was very crude compared to that, yours is nice elegant

#

#

I guess the bad tag was expected, but I'm surprised how many powered through this long on the map. Makes me wonder how many tried and didn't finish.

#

tired wraith Sep 20, 2022, 9:50 AM

#

I think you should leave meaningful comments about possible solution on those so that they at least try to think out of the box

#

(even if you kinda did)

cedar stratus Sep 20, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

or drop a recording here 🙂

bronze shadow Sep 20, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

Well both me and Fire already dropped recordings, not sure what more could be done.

#

I think zekses solution was pillar chain
