Sotiat: Build a blaster and move Odin City and the blaster up to the North plateau to stop the emitter on the right side of the plateau. Expand from there. You should be able to finish the map in under 8 minutes. Good luck.
RealOldman: It is these intermediate puzzles where my times fall apart compared to the rest of you speedsters. Right now I'm near 8 minutes for 8/1. Do you have any general suggestions for these mid-difficulty puzzles?
