Hi John
Excuse me if I speak being called into question in your posts.
First of all what Mark wrote is absolutely true, I fully agree with him. Then, even if Mark did not solve those levels I think that from his experience both as a player and as levels-maker he is able to find the perfect solution.
In any case I've solved them, and can "prove" that can be solved also by placing any object on thin ice. Try to be more humble and have patience and perseverance to study well the level and then try it, test it and finally try it out!
If you like this game, it definitely will not be a problem.
Dreaming is possible and sometimes even beautiful, but to denigrate is not possible and always is a bad thing!
If you need help just ask and you will get it.
Ciao

This is reinforced on the Submissions page (http://perso.cgocable.ca/lasertank/sub.html).

Without wishing to give away too much, since the level is currently not officially solved, Ch-IV 1624 only requires one Movable Block ("brick") which goes in O11. O13 does not need to be filled because you will travel via the Magenta Tunnel (H9) then the White Tunnel. Of course, you must destroy H10-12 first using F2 and a timing trick.

It is possible to stand an object on O13 and not break the Thin Ice if you cause an anti-tank laser to hit it at just the right time at right-angles to its motion and it is blocked from moving (in this case by O12). Then you simply travel from H13 to N13 where you are stopped on Solid Ice by the object standing on O13. Both of these levels would be rated "Hard".
