Yup, it is really disappointing when you are close to being able to complete the ultimate Rube Goldberg trap setup and the level ends.

Wow. Yes it is. The fact you don't get any breaks - or even any time out of the gate to set things up - well, that sucks.
At this point I have no intention of completing the game on Nightmare, I just wanted some more skulls so I could more easily get five skulls on all of the War Mage levels.
I am getting a lot of skulls with either 5 or 4 skull scores on nightmare, mostly because if it is to the point that baddies are getting to the rift it has gone so horribly sideways that you are basically effed...

Just curious, what exactly determines the amount of skulls that you get. I got 4/5 on the last demo level even though none of the orcs managed to reach the rift (I think.)
Do you lose skulls if you lose too much hp?

Click the 'stats' button after you complete the level, it breaks down your score. What might be getting you is that there's a time limit, if you go over it's minus one skull.

This is what I don't like about nightmare. Playing a level now and I can't find time to sell traps, including the ones set accidentally during some frantic button mashing. I understand it needs to be hard, but the fun of TD games (for me anyway) is laying out the map and planning. Nightmare takes a lot of that away.

a second DLC - 5 maps,some weapons and max 50 skulls (so guessing the maps are hard to have 10 skulls on them-guess it is that way anyway.)

You get five for WM difficulty, then 5 more for insane.
New maps are a little harder than the first imo. They tend to use more of the kobold bombs to destroy your barricades.
How do you play the new maps? i have downloaded and installed the new content but i dont see how to play it. Do you have to unlock it first somehow?

I'm trying to write this from memory.. you need to click on something like Campaigns....
I had the same problem.
Took a lot of clicking but the answer is.
When selecting a map to play, click on "campain" at the top of the screen and it will change to the DLC name (what ever that was, can not remember) and the maps below become the new maps.

Wanted to chime back in that I beat all the levels on Nightmare and hold a highspot of 33rd on the Rebirth map on that difficulty.
So, you need to be good with the lighting AoE attack and use the ice amulet to take out the big guys - that was the trick to Nightmare for me.
