Our first Community Map of the Week is First Puzzle from Flak! Not every community-made map in Athena Crisis is meant for PVP fights: some of them are intended to give your brain a bit of exercise by requiring you to beat them in one turn, or use the mechanics of the game in unique ways to solve a puzzle. The aptly-named First Puzzle map is one example!
In this devious puzzle map, you have one turn to defeat all of the enemy units on the map. You are not allowed to use skills! This is a test of anyones combat acuity as you will need to perform your actions in a specific order to achieve victory.
Give First Puzzle a try right here! (If the link doesn't work for you, try selecting New Game from the main menu and use the Search function to find First Puzzle.) If any of the enemy units are still standing at the end of your turn, you lose! You can always try again with the Undo Turn button, though.
If youre stumped, try revealing these hints one at a time:
[spoiler]1. You can pick off four enemy units by using only four of your units to attack them. [/spoiler]
[spoiler]2. After that, one enemy unit will require two of your units to attack it to destroy it, and one enemy unit will require three of your units to finish it off. [/spoiler]
If those don't help, here is the full solution:
[spoiler]Fighter destroys Sea Patrol from the west.
Anti-Air destroys X-Fighter from the west.
Heavy Artillery destroys the APU.
Cannon destroys Infantry unit.
North Copter and Rocket Launcher destroy Small Tank.
The three remaining units destroy the Anti-Air[/spoiler]

Victory in Athena Crisis can be obtained in multiple ways: defeat all enemy units to clear a map, take over your opponent’s structures and bases, escort units to an escape zone, or simply survive for a period of time against overwhelming odds. Outwit, outbuild, and outfight your opponents!
Take Command
Command 40+ infantry, ground, naval and air units in turn-based battles. Each structure you capture will net you more resources each turn, which you can use to build more powerful units and expand even further! Here's the twist: the actions within your game world can echo across to other players' experiences, and vice versa - creating a dynamic, interconnected universe!Think Tactically
Beware the fog! Proceeding too far behind enemy lines may leave your units exposed to attacks from unexpected directions, or even at risk of…dinosaur munches? Strategic thinking will be required to take advantage of terrain and lines of sight.Just One More Game
