The way I finished this level was to send an Athlete over the squar- ish thing, make him a blocker a little to the right, send another athlete, make him mine down to the left, and just fall on out. Then I took a climber to the top, and made him a down-digger a little bit off the left edge. When he gets down there, I make him a bomber, and his explosion makes a path from the left side to the right. If it's a little off I use a couple bashers to take out the remaining sliver(s). They actually can bash againsts the flow thing if they are facing the other way. They kind of back-hand the wall. This might be a kind of weird way to do it, but hey, it works... I wonder how everyone else did the last one in the demo version. Mine might me kinda strange... bconnor@hpuxa.acs.ohio-state.edu -Casey -- ***************************************************************************** * /\ /\ /\ | /~_ /\ __ | /\ /\ /\ The proud and the few. * * /~~\ / \/ \ | \_/ /~~\ | \/ \/ \/ bconnor@hpuxa.acs.ohio-state.edu * *****************************************************************************
