Snow, I'm iffy about the whole early expand bit...it seems that Zerg have always been able to do it (this all assumes temple is the map), Protoss can do it if ther lucky, but what about Terrans? Depot, Rax, bunker, CC? Or Something like that.
About your build, I think it's a good idea...it just makes your "ubiquitous random" even more dangerous...I, as your opponent (Terran) could get 4-pooled, could get nailed by a middle-speed rush, could lose to any number of middle-game cheapess (lurkers, reavers, etc), or you could turbo xpand on me..
I think the worst part about it is to stop it, you need to Acadamy Rush....and an Acad rush gets beatdown by fast dts or Storm or Reavers. So, if the Toss head fakes a fast Xpand, & I go power infantry, and then the toss gets 4 reavers in 2 shuttle, GOOD-BYE me.
Or, if I heavy-metal, i get my 1st vulture out and you've got your natural. Quel bitch.
Of course, all this only works on temple....
Oh, and Good report
:)
All the best,

| Hmm, whats this stratforumregs channel? Alls i got is vanilla now, so should i go there for games? Also, i almost always expand early vs terran these days, cuz cannons kick marine and vulture ass, and you can usually survive long enough to take advantage of your expand. |

Fractal, that illustrates the power of recon to know just what the toss is going for. I.e. quick academy and comsat I guess. As for early expand for terran on temple, it's actually quasi-doable only because you can build the CC on your main and float it down. But that's not usually recommended until you get your first tank.
T_Mac, yes stratforumregs is a channel name, and mostly vanilla people play there of all skill levels. If you want a really challenging game, play a guy by the name of drone@hive or Eriador -- he's extremely good. As in the level of Whoop, Mark, or Heartcutter good. (insert your favorite good player here as well) |

I dont think i'll play him til i get more practice in, but i'll try out that channel til i get bw again.
And btw, since i was so busy asking about strats and stuff and didnt say this before,
NICE BRS!
P.s.- I own whoop! hehe |

If your opponent had been smart and made Firebats along with Marines, I think the outcome could have been alot different =)

| The danger of early expand is probably in early tanks. Heavy metal might to quite well against toss quick expand. Terran just needs to make sure they are researching siege once they see the cannons at the expansion. |

Expansionz are necessary to win gamez (generally speaking) of 30 minutez or longer. A short game where someone rushez you with a huge horde and you die (assuming not an island game) an expansion might hurt you more than help you. Of course, if your expansion is on an island or you get an expansion the enemy does not know about may help. 400 ore could be used to build... another gateway/rax and more troopz. One quick thing, the Terranz, seeing that you are expanding early and have ground troopz, should have gone stimmed batz and medicz. Marinez are alwayz good and should be thrown in for added support. A main base can produce alot of marinez/batz and a few medicz. Of course I hate to rush myself. But thatz a good counter for either a fast tech building or for a foe who is expanding fast (a rush).
