Cool report. I enjoyed reading it. Here's what I recommend for late game vs prot:
4-5 Rax
2 Fact
1-2 Starport
You have to keep pumping tanks. Very key, although your nukes were doing a bang-up job.
Practice tank pushing. It goes sorta like this:
Get 12-18 marines/meds/bats. (10 Minimum) Hotkey the group(s)
Get 4 tanks (hotkey)(2 Minimum)
Get 4 SCVs (no hotkey) (4 Minimum).
Main factors:
Timing: Do this when he's expanding or building back his losses.
Have all of these units massed at your choke at the top of your ramp. Set the SCVs to build bunkers sorta close to his main valley. 3 bunkers and 1 turret. The SCVs should be trying to get by your marines and there should be a big traffic jam there. You're doing it right if it's the case.
Have your marines attack move there, as well as the tanks.
At this point you'll have a big mass of things going toward his choke. 1 of 3 things will happen at this point:
1: The SCVs die to troops. Good. It means you have advance warning of what you're facing. If there's zealots, they may try to follow the SCVs by chasing them and hacking them down. This is a good thing. You can stim and follow it up. If they're goons. Same thing, and you can siege up as well. If there are templar there, at least you know about them.
2: The SCVs get there and get attacked by DT (or other random troops). Your following marines will get there in time to save their asses (hopefully). You'll have enough of a force to kill the DT fairly quickly after a scan. Immediately replace any killed SCVs. Chances are that if a battle rages here, you'll have a chance to get in the bunkers during the heat of battle.
3: You make it there and get the bunkers up. Excellent. Siege the tanks near or adjacent to the bunkers, then any new tanks are put forward of the position. You just crawl down his throat.

| Thanks for the comment heart. Maybe I'll visit that shrine sometime ;). Yea I suppose to assault a toss main you would need bunkers. Poor marines get zapped so quickly.. sniff ;-< |

| I really hate that heartcutter guy.:) I was in a 2on2 vs. him and johnny vegas, and johnny was dropped around midgame (though he did hurt my expansion a lot). Then that bastard heartcutter killed both me and my partner by himself! grrr, damn terrans, they're inbalanced! weaken the terrans |

| I just saw a commercial for a CD called "Sugarbeats", toting titanic songs such as "Locomotion," and that Lion King song that sounds like they're saying 'Weiner wacker.' Due to this commercial, I'm totally disgusted and for that I give you a 2. If not for this very disturbing commercial, I would've given this commercial a 7 or 8. |

Bleh, would've given this _REPORT_ a 7 or 8. Testing out the new smiley I made in kali chat now.....

| #7 HolyAnarchy{GK}[4304] |
|
| Ehh, raters? No pics? 8? Oh well. I suppose the Terran vs Protoss counts as points, even if you lose. And we all love omni, and his gay marines and whining ways. Except for me, i'm still scared of him after he whooped my ass. =) |
| #8 Marauder_KB[4310] |

I really wanna play either Omni, Heartcutter, or Jonny_Vegas or some people like that on a 2v2 game. Do you guys have a channel where you meet at any time? Me and my partner _Lazy_Boyz_ have never lost as a team "yet". We have 100+ wins as teams. C-ya around.
Great Report, Pictures would have gotten you that additional 1.5 points =( but =) good job. My eeeeenglees iiis baaad. |
| #9 Johnny_Vegas[4323] |
|
| Mark4 and I won like our first 16 games in 2v2 until we finally started playing really good people and losing about 20% of the games. Maybe we can play sometime. |
| #10 Omnipresent[4325] |
|
| Well Marauder I in no way claim to be a great player, so you and your friend can beat down mark4 and Johnny while I run away ;).. Also, my friend, Amedda, and I win just about every single time in pubbie games, but that's cuz 99% of bnet plays bgh so much they suck at every other map. You should find more of a challenge in the "nohunters" channel cuz people there tend to be better. |
| #11 Marauder_KB[4327] |
|
| What really is wrong with Hunters? I find that map perfectly ok. BGH SUX!!!! There is no skill involved in playing in BGH!!! Any newbie can bunker in and build anything. Me and my friend, used to play pubbie 2v2, then we started challenging every single clan we met. |
| #12 Fweddo[4329] |
|
| Marauder you actually spelled everything right. I guess you're weird way of talking is really on purpose =) (I did think that btw). |

Say, just an M&M question...where is the best place to put medics in battle? Cuz mine don't start healing till 6-8 rines are already dead...
Thx...great report btw |
| #15 Whoop[4339] |
|
| Wow great report plus Maelstrom is a really good player. Nukes arent that tough to stop though as toss btw. Observers anyone? This is one of the best reports I have ever read without pics. |
| #16 -]=Wr@iTh=[-[4343] |

Silent-Weapon are you sure? lol. The marine AI is programmed to run up and heal any allied unit. I have a hard time preventing them from running up to the front of battle. I agree the medic AI does need improving.
Nice Report! I never write because my English skills are extremely poor. Maybe someday, I'll write about a game I played against a cheater, you would all know the clan he was in "{UPS}" fags. I think it was "Dark{UPS}" Can't remember. There was one cool dude in the clan.

| I mean "MEDIC AI" not marine AI in the first line |
| #18 Omnipresent[4348] |

Thanx everyone for all of the positive comments, they make my head grow really big until someone pops it again ;)... Whoop, he did get observers, but the problem was we were both really low on resources and it was a race to whoever could get an exp up safely. Because of that he had very little troops to cover ground besides temps.
I usually stick my medics right in front of the marines, charge them into battle, THEN stim. If you stim beforehand, the marines always get too far ahead and die. Also, by keeping the meds in front you make it much harder for melee units to run up and hit your rines cuz they have to go around the meds. That's just what i like to do though. |

Omni, that was a great report. I mean awesome. I wish I had more gay marines in my forces. They leave the medics alone too. You'd be amazed how much more effective a medic can be if she doesn't think her patient is going to jump up and hit on her too...
I want a conversion that allows me to have marines with Pink Triangles on their suits. And the vulture pilots should be some mean lesbian bikers. =)
