Excellent!

Version A, here I go.

I've been playing Lethamyr for a little bit now and I've got to say that this terrain is already gorgeous, when I complete the map I'll probably begin an epic housing project Zisteau style.

What can I say, I'm a sheep. I'm doing Version A too. How uncreative of me.

Vinyl Fantasy I playthrough on hold to do Version A. This had better be good. I have a giant backlog of CTM maps now-- ones I need to beta test, GIFTWARPED, Vinyl Fantasy I, and tons of other stuff. SDKJFHFSD

EDIT: Damn, I can't download it. It says FileSwap is down for maintenance. What a tease. -_____-

Guys... It is time. For more Nightmare Realm!
I've played A LOT since I last posted.

I decided to finally tackle Dungeon Bunkerstien. After arriving there, taking supplies and setting my spawn there with a bed, I advanced. Blocking off routes until I went there, I fought through the dungeon. simply rushing the first funbox room, I lit it up, then ran out and took care of the stragglers. I then advanced until I came to the next one, repeating the same tactic. Here, I was assisted by a creeper, who conveniently took out a few of the mobs that'd already spawned.
Then, finding the grey wool in a back room, I returned it to my minibase, and resumed.
From here on, the dungeon became more difficult - I was now fighting Blazes. When I came to the silverfish room, I gradually advanced down the parallel corridors, removing spawners, and slaying skeletons.
Then, coming to the big Blaze room, I took out one spawner before deciding it was too much - however, I saw the fleecybox. Tunneling underneath the room towards it, I learnt that there was only one block, above and below me, separating me from both the Blaze and the void. Cautiously, I kept digging until I came to the fleecy-box room. Grabbing my pink wool, I then escaped the dungeon, not looking back
After victoriously placing my wool, I knew that there was only one wool left in Forestmen - the Ruined Tower.
After resupplying, I plotted my assault. Deciding to pillar up and over the tower to drop TNT on the spawners, while also not destroying the fleecy-box, I collected some of the building blocks I'd raided from the obsidian chest in the Caves of Madness.
When I arrived at the tower, I fought off some mobs and lit up the base, in preparation for my pillaring. Beginning my pillar, I kept a good distance from the tower. Then, when I got above it, I bridged directly over it, and dropped the first TNT, destroying the Blaze spawner.
Then guess what happened? You'll love this.
I ****ING FELL OFF MY BRIDGE. Landing face first on a cave spider, I lost some iron tools, iron armour, and the Power 1 bow a skeleton had kindly dropped for me before.
Death Count = 11.
****.
After regearing for battle, I rushed back - but could not get there in time to retrieve my stuff. Damn.
Nevertheless, I vengefully bombed the cave spider and Ghast spawner, and took my lime wool.
Slightly pissed, I placed it on the VM. NOW the map was coming together. Forestmen was now complete.

The next day, I decided to finally tackle the Eternal Tears. Bridging out from the starting island, I was careful to not go too close to the stalagtites, so as not to spawn any Ghasts.
Arriving at the stalagtite which held the fleecy-box, I began to prepare. I saw two Ghast spawners. I decided to drop sand down, and then dig down, collect the wool, and pillar back up to escape.
I was ready - I wore an iron chestplate, and some leather pants for extra protection. I had a stone pick, iron shovel for speed digging, and a stone sword and bow. I was pumped and ready.
And then, I began to execute my cleverly crafted plan.
But then, heartbreak. As soon as my digging down got me in range of the first Ghast spawner, one spawned instantly, and shot me directly in the face, knocking me into the void.
My assault had lasted less than three seconds before swift, ruthless defeat. I was crushed.
Getting off my computer, I wallowed in my own self-pity and misery for a day. Death Count = 12.
Why?
WHY?
Why did that Ghast have to spawn instantly and hit me? Why?
Why...


BUT I WAS NOT DONE YET.

I rushed down to Forestmen and slew 6 Endermen in my anger. I took their enderpearls, and rushed back to the Eternal Tears. I threw one down to the fleecy-box, dug into it, and RIPPED a piece of magenta wool out. I then pillared back up to my bridge, and ruthlessly and mercilessly sniped three Ghasts out of the sky, ending their pitiful existances. Their dying wails and screams were music to my ears; they and the endermen, as well as countless zombies, creepers, spiders and skeletons had been massacred in my vengeance.
My bloodthirst sated, I returned my magenta wool to the monument, its delicate colour slightly reddened with the blood of dozens of unholy creatures.
Then I returned to the Eternal Tears to retrieve some gold. Bridging to the entrance, I staircased down, lit up the creeper spawner, and finished those that had already spawned. Collecting the wheat and cake from the chest, I then went into the snow and gold room, making sure not to all into the cheaty snow pits. I collected 24 gold blocks, and placed one on the Victory Monument. I now had 10 of the 19 required blocks; this map will be finished.

Again, thanks for reading guys. I know Isaac and Hybran have been waiting for this.
Thanks to Hybran for his advice on the Eternal Tears.
Next time, we either venture into Cold Cave, or explore more of Winter Wonderhell - or perhaps we'll try our luck at the Home of the Swarm.

I just checked and the download worked for me...

Hopefully, at worst, it will be an "average" CTM map. This is my first continental-style map, so I'm going into experimental territory. Also I was trying to get it done quickly (In the 20 hour range instead of 60+ like Legendary), so I did make use of some cave dungeons, which are much faster to make than "man made" dungeons with neat hallways and decorations. This is why Fallen Kingdom is going to be such a massive friggin' time sink. It's a giant city, with hundreds of buildings... *sigh*
