Hehehe, good BR dref.
There were two times I considered leaving that game, the first was after my competly ^*(^#^#%*()#ed up attack, the second was when snow nearly ran me over with wraiths and valks. BTW I had three more starports at my expand, I may suck, but I don't go 4port cruisers =] |

hehe YRM, I just know that I want to be wearing clean underwear when I die... St. Peter might not let me go through the pearly gates if my undies are smelly...
Sorry Bob, forgot to mention the 2 starports at your expansion. Once you had your 7 cruisers, you didn't build anymore air anyway, you started pumping marines. |

ROFL. The storyline in this was hilarious.. great. :)
A few notes from my end:
I found Bob in the last place I looked.. as I scouted counter clockwise. Hence it was much to my chagrin when I scanned immediatley after and saw that Bob had 2 wraiths already when I was just working on my factory! Those of you who have played Bone Canyon may know of the insane time it takes an SCV to traverse the windy canyons to scout.
So right there, I was behind, and was forced to construct turrets to cover myself from an early cloaked wraith rush.
When I attempted to drop Bob's lower left expansion, I had my wraiths + valk on "follow".. which let Bob get several free kills before I was able to notice and react. That hurt. The dropship was unable to get the important part of the cargo out (i.e. the medics). My single file attack earlier wasn't too great either, but again, on Bone Canyon, single file is about all you can do unfortunately. Both times Bob either had excellant recon or just got plain lucky to intercept them.
In the midgame I had a short period, after my 2nd exp attempt was busted, where my mineral intake really slowed down. As a result, I never could reach critical mass on my wraiths, and couldn't engage the bc's head on. By the way, my wraiths were 2/3 at the end. I think the most wraiths I ever had at one time was 15. Just not quite enough. I did find adding a valk here and there really helped in those wraith vs wraith fights.
All in all this was an excellant game though - my mistakes were fairly minor and like Bob pointed out after the game - the fact that I had selected Terran, and he was random and drew Terran, allowed him to go for the starport right away.
Kudos to Bob on a game well played! Off turrets = ownz my bonez. ;) |

Hell yeah!!
This is a 10!!
(or a 9.8 mayb, but that rounds off to 10..)
The intermission and the story was original and funny..
It was a bit of Preators Phoenix there, but that was just good.. Terran vs Terran games are hard, but I dont undestand why bob was so late with turrets.. Those things kill wraiths.. oh and the Scv+BC push is super, BC´s is alone bad, but in numbers invincible..
Moo.
(Too many good reports in such short time, now im afraid to crank out mine...) |

| Why in the world were battlecruisers built in a TvT war :-) ? Actually, I think drops + wraiths + valks does really really well in early/mid game if the opponents are skirting on tank defense. I know it's a lot of money, but just produce fewer wraiths and sub with more valks instead, then escort your dropship and plop a tank, 3 marines, an SCV, or whatever and start sieging. I know this was attempted once here and failed because of lack of air superiority, but it has a lot of potential because in TvT wars, for some odd reason everyone thinks air and neglects to make any ground troops. Whatever you do, don't have your troops marching on foot toward an enemy base...even on open ground maps like Temple, terran ground units might as well have big "ambush me" signs when they're in transit and not packed in dropships. |

Now that the race for first comment is over and I won't spoil the ending I have a couple of things to say about the game.
1) Snowsquall, sorry for yamatoing you, but I just thought that was the ultimate in overkill :-) and added to the story. I guess now that your character is dead you'll have to go play AOK or something.
2) The one tactic that I found interesting in this game was Bob, building 10 missle turrets wherever he took his battlecruisers and keeping 8 SCVs there for repair. Those same 7 cruisers went from the top right starting point to the top left map and I think 1 BC was lost through the entire battle compared with about 30-40 wraiths. Kind of like a battle cruiser push. I thought it was cool.
Anyway, that's all I have to say about this report. I hope it doesn't get passed over too much with so many other great reports to read. :-)

Oh yeah, one more thing... I haven't read any of .Praetor's battle reports yet and was quite surprised to have my report compared to his. I hope he doesn't think that I am trying to steal his style. I just thought having a mini story to go along with the battle report might spruce it up. I'll have to do a search on his reports and see how much this report goes along with his.

When I played Bob Terran V. Terran, he commented that 'mass wraiths win tvt". I decided to try and prove him wrong with goliaths...lots of goliaths. Unfortunetly, the science vessels I had for support made a ~very~ easy target for the wraith horde. Not my best game ever...wraiths are ~tres~ dominate in tvt, especially if follwoed by a marine horde.
Right SnowSquall?
;P
All the best,

| This is a hard report for me to rate, loved the story, very nice appearance and graphics, exciting game, no animation or little pop up boxes, hmm. I am stuck somewhere between a 9 and a 10. Unfortunately for Drefsab I think my true rating would be 9.3 or 9.4 which as we all know... |

| TT Boy, hehe, I find it funny that you're torn. As far as I'm concerned. If my report reaches a nine, then I've gotten my story across. Animation is not my cup of tea. I just try to make my writing clear and interesting and include just enough pictures so the reader can visualize what happened. If the highest I can get for that is a nine, then I'm happy :-) |
