Now,
I should probably start this attempt at a battle report
with a warning about how damn evil long this report will
take to download, and how tired you hamster will become,
just because I included pictures . But after
about 1000 reports with more or less the same warning, I
feel that the concept is mildly over-used, and thus, I
won't do it. Instead, I will amuse you with this totally
pointless text with absolutely no real meaning, other
than make you laught of my awful English. I warn
you, it won't become any better during the report. Oh,
and also ... this is the first time for me...so please
be gentle...
Before the last of you leave, let me
introduce .... ta-da .... the
players!
I would
like to apologize to the players for using their names
in such a low-end report.
.:MorningStar:.

..and the observers: Me, RoboTeddy and some
unknown guy name Basic or something
:-)
The map choice was as standard as it
could be: Lost Temple. The creator made on some
weird obs map with no map revealers, so the observers
couldn't see the whole map. And I missed Bob's bengalas
the whole game. You don't know how much you love them
until they are not there...
Let's get on with the
game, shall we?
.:MorningStar:. randomed to
pink terran at the 3 o'clock position, while JuBBle
spawned his chosen race, zerg, at the 6 o'clock
position. Both players started out fairly normal, with
.:MorningStar:. doing a
barrack on 8 at his chocke, followed by a supply depot
on 9 near his mineral line, and yet another barrack
around 11 supply. JuBBle, on the other hand,
did an ovie on 9, then a pool on new 9. He starts a
hatch at his natural at 11 supply, and shortly after he
spawns 6 zerglings.
About
now, .:MorningStar:.'s scouting
scv arrives, but at the sight of the 6 zerglings, it
turns tail and tries to escape. JuBBle
sends his 6 lings after the scv, and kills it at his
second natural. JuBBle now
expands again, this time to his mineral-only natural,
where the scv died a few second earlier.
In
.:MorningStar:.'s base,
marines are trained non-stop, and he starts a refinery
on his geysir, probably to supply his growing marine
force with medics. JuBBle is building mainly
zerglings and a few drones now. Just as his 3rd hatch
(at the mineral-only) completes, .:MorningStar:. moves out
with 10 marines and two scv's. Due to sloppy unit
control, only 6 of the marines walked down .:MorningStar:.'s ramp, and
the remaining 6 wanders around in his base, looking for
another way out. .:MorningStar:. soon ordered
the lost marines, along with 2 more that just came out
of his barracks, to join their brethren in the attack.
As the marines move out, a zergling scout from
JuBBle runs into the force,
and thus, the surprise is gone. JuBBle's
defenses consists of about 15 zerglings, with more on
the way. Thanks to .:MorningStar:.'s little
mistake, 6 more lings arrive on the scene just before
the terran force arrives. JuBBle does a nice move, and
splits his zergling force, placing about 10 zerglings
just below the temple, and the other half next to the
mineral-only hatchery, where he just started a creep
colony.
As
.:MorningStar:.'s forces
arrive, JuBBle attack from both
sides, and although casualities are high on both sides,
JuBBle wins the match with
two zerglings left. .:MorningStar:. started a
bunker next to the hatch at the end of the battle, but
cancelled it seconds later.
During the battle,
.:MorningStar:. started an
academy, which is now done, and he starts his third
barrack, while still building non-stop marines and
adding in a medic or two. Shortly after, he starts a
engineering bay, and when it's done, he adds a turret on
top of his chocke.
JuBBle, on the other side of the
map, goes sunken crazy and builds 5 sunkens at his
mineral-only, while still building mainly zerglings. A
few seconds later, he starts a hydralisk den and two
evolution chambers at his natural expansion. I think he
made a mistake building them at his natural, because a
turbo-newbie would kill all his tech. .:MorningStar:., now equipped with
medics, sets out with a 11 marine, 4 medic force to see
what damage he can do. After losing 1 marine to JuBBle's sunkens, he retreats his
forces to just out of sunken range.
Realizing that JuBBle can't have many troops with
that amount of sunkens, .:MorningStar:. starts an expansion
at his natural, and a factory in his main. When the
factory is done, he immediately orders up a starport,
and when the factory add-on is done, he starts a tank
and the siege tank upgrade. While this is going on,
JuBBle is pumping hydralisks
out of his 3 hatcheries, upgrading his first hatch to
lair, and is also adding a 4th hatchery at his natural
expansion.
.:MorningStar:. adds a bunker at 12
natural, preparing to expand there. When his first tank
is done, he moves out with the tank and about 20
m&m. The tank siege just outside JuBBle's mineral-only, and as the
fist arclite blast hit the sunkens, JuBBle's hydras move out to engage
the terran forces. .:MorningStar:. made a critical
error here, he stationed his m&m too far from the
tank, and thus the tank was destroyed with no harm done
to the hydras. Now there is about 20 m&m versus
about 15 hydras. Right before the two forces clash,
JuBBle's +1 attack upgrade
kicks in, with .:MorningStar:.'s finishing at the
end of the battle.
The hydras engage the m&m
force, and although the m&m kills the original 15
hydras, the zerg forces is reinforced quickly, and the
few remaining marines and medics return home. JuBBle, satisfied with his victory,
choose to not follow his opponent.
During the
battle, .:MorningStar:. has
starts an expansion at 12's natural, and fortified it
with a bunker and a missile turret. In his base, his
first dropship is done, and he orders the construction
of a science facility and two more barracks.
JuBBle decides he needs more map
control, and moves his hydras to the center of the map.
He also expands to both 9's natural and 9 main. .:MorningStar:.'s first dropship is
now done, and he loads it up with 8 marines, then sent
towards 9, probably with a drop on JuBBle's main in mind. As he passes
9 natural and 9 main he notices the hatches, and choose
to unload and kill the hatch at 9 main (since im stupid
I missed it). He then attacks the hatch at 9 natural,
scaring away a lone hydra, but soon after hydralisk
reinforcements arrive and saves the hatch with 300 hp
left. JuBBle now finds .:MorningStar:.'s expansion at 12
natural width a scouting group of hydras, but the hydras
are easily beaten back by the m&m forces stationed
there. Rethinking his strategy, JuBBle morphs 8 lurkers and
reinforces the group with about 24 hydralisks. The
expansion is well defended with 3 tanks, a science
vessel and about 15 m&m, but it can't stop this mass
of units.
In the end, 6 lurkers remain
to kill the expansion, and after the command center is
gone, JuBBle leaves them
there to be killed by science vessel. .:MorningStar:. moves a force of
marines and 2 tanks to retake the expansion, but JuBBle stops it cold with 24
hydras. .:MorningStar:. is
forced to lift of his command center again, but he
starts a new expansion nude at his mineral only, right
next to two hydras, which does not notice the command
center.
Now you are probably a bit confused, and
it's time to do a little status update:
|
|
Map status:
The
smaller dots are expansions under construction or
expansions that are not used yet, while the larger
dots are either main bases or fully functional
expansions. The purple dot with an X is
.:MorningStars:.'s denied
expansion.
Upgrade status:
 
.:MorningStar:. is at 1-2,
while JuBBle is at 2-2,
but .:MorningStar:.'s
2nd armor will soon kick in.
And
back to the game...
|
.:MorningStar:., undaunted by the
loss of his expansion, moves out with a large army
towards JuBBle's
mineral-only, consisting of mass m&m, 3 vessels and
2-3 tanks. JuBBle returns the
hydras that annihilated the terran rescue force at 12
natural, and attacks the terran force from two sides.
The casualities are great on both sides, but in the end,
.:MorningStar:.'s forces is
left with about 10 marines standing. These few marines
are soon reinforced with about 30 m&m.
.:MorningStar:. decide that without
tanks, JuBBle's sunken wall
is too strong for only m&m. Instead, he moves his
army toward 9, where JuBBle
controls both the natural and the mineral-only
expansion. JuBBle desperately
morphs 4 sunken colonies right before the attack
strikes, but he is unable to morph them into sunkens
before they are destroyed. He then morphs a few lurkers
and is finally able to save his expansions, but not
without the loss of all his drones and most of his
hydra/lurker force.
While the expansion battle
raged, .:MorningStar:.'s
construction facilities was never idle, and right after
his last army died, he moves out with a new one,
consisting of mass m&m, 5-6 tanks and just as many
science vessels.
JuBBle flanks .:MorningStar:.'s forces from 9 and
6, but there are too many tanks in the field this time,
and his forces are destroyed. .:MorningStar:. reinforces his
forces, and after annihilating JuBBle's mineral-only, he leaves
half of his forces there, and destroys JuBBle's expansions at 9. JuBBle try to save his expansions,
but he is denied by the tanks outside his base. As his
forces and expansions are destroyed, JuBBle resigns with a
"gg".
The .... scores!
( 1 = overview, 2 = units, 3 =
buildings, 4 = resources)
Lessons
learned:
- Writing a battlereport requires an awful amouth of
time
- When I look at this thing all I can think of is my
exam tomorrow
- I regret that I cheated on my g/f last weekend
- I am just to damn sexy
(for the record, I
feel that the "lessons learned" concept is as over-used
as the "big br, die modem" messages...)
this
has been a (...Blaze...) report
