Hello! Thanks for the submission.
I'd like to suggest a small correction to the level: in the south-eastern castle, there are 2 guardpoints missing (they should be placed on the bottom stairs).
I also think this map could have a more original name, to distinguish it from other battles in the 8th area.

Playtested this map with swietymiki just now and it's fatally flawed. Unless you send your own grunt to open up the pyramids to your fort, you are completely invulnerable, and you're given literally no reason to do that until you have 15 gruntz with optimal tools and toys as well as optimal bricks. A switch that opens said pyramids from the outside could fix this, but removing them entirely might be even better, since the holes and the option to lay bricks on the same area look like good enough defensive options to me. The map looks nice otherwise, apart from the obvious lack of a good name.

I downloaded this version, and have it stored on my hard drive, changing "Monolith Productions, Inc." to "Attila1992". I will use the last image posted (for now) as the "View the map", even though it is a GLE snapshot with all of those logic blocks cluttering up the image. A game-time screen grab would be appreciated (my computer balks at creating anything via "prt sc" or even Gruntz' own F12 method, so I could use some help). Of course, I will also have to create a 'standard' Announcement and merge it into the opening post in this thread.
Is there any chance that the original poster will return and take the hints our Gruntzerz have provided regarding the name of this Battle? He has not returned (March 3, 2018) to participate (February 18, 2018) in the thread for a while. There are four different indices to be updated, adding this one, and renaming them is definitely NOT my idea of a fun task.

Since the creator still hasn't logged back in, I've undertaken some steps to finally release this battle. Notably I fixed the issue of players having invulnerable forts by adding 2 red pyramids and changing the toggle state of green pyramids overall. I tested this new version and it works alright. I also added more graphical variety to the map because it was really empty and monotonous, the impact on gameplay is minimal. Moreover, the current name feels like a placeholder, so it should be changed to something else before release. My suggestion is "Gray Space", gray is the dominating color on this map and this way it also keeps the last word from the original name.

The download link to the web host no longer works for some reason.

I fixed the link.

Statz Page image
View The Map
but that will be classified as a 'teaser' without the actual puzzle. (That's the problem with 'free' web hosts ... no guarantee that the file will continue to exist for any length of time.) If someone has the WWD without any fatal flaws, send it to me, so I may create a valid Announcement for the puzzle. I would replace the original post with a standard-type Announcement with the necessary supporting file(s).
