@StCreed: Yeah, the bay on the far right was conquerable, after that I got to spread out. My final time was 26:26 on first try, with probably-bad floater management.

@MichaelChandra: it's possible, but takes a lot of time: just spam reactors in the beginning then build mortars, and move the mortars across the map if you have to stop the Creeper from building up too high.
Eventually I had about 10 mortars and began to gain on the Creeper, slowly driving him back.

A push with 21 mortars on the far right managed to make it, so theoretically that could be done with preparation and storing up energy, since it's only 8 mortars more than the energy supply I could handle without reactors. Still, ain't gonna do it a second time just for doing that push with energy surplus rather than reactors. :)

Fun part: This is a map where relays might actually matter since they let me spread around without going into the sea, which I need more energy to conquer. :)

Bah, got to move the City on 9/27 with Mortars-only. -_- Let's move it to the left, see how far I can get from there.
