"Angel: ooh ooh... can I have the Red X?"
"Talon: no, but you can have a bigass bowl of "PUSH THE REFRESH BUTTON, IDIOT""
-Talon/Angel



Cairn is holding pretty steady with enough resources and supply to do just about anything he wants to at the moment.

Man also seems to be pretty steady also with enough resources and supply to do many different things.


Late Game


Cairn decides that it is time to once again do a Muta harrasment. As he moves to do this he notices a Templar Archive being built and destroys that. Unbeknownst to him though Man has decided to send his entire
attack force except for four Scouts to attack Cairn's main. The attack force consists of five Zealots, twelve Dragoons, and two Scouts. Also unbeknownst to Man Cairn has a defending
force of twentyfive Hydralisks and five Mutalisks. Also as soon as Man starts the assault Cairn takes his Mutalisk Harrasment force back and helps destroy the attack force.

As soon as the first major battle is finished Cairn decides that it is time to show Man what a mistake he had just made using his whole force and letting me know about it. Cairn
now splits his force of Mutalisks and Hydralisks so that the Hydralisks attack the back of Man's base and the Hydralisks to attack the front. When the force arrives at the main Man now has only eight Dragoons in which to
defend himself to over fifteen Mutalisks and over twenty Hydralisks.


I would like to thank, myself for deciding to do this, this was actually quite fun to make even though it only took me about 30 minutes. I would like to thank ManInTheShadow for being such a good sport. He and I aren't known very well by the Starcraft Community but,
we decided to get our names out there anyways. Here are the end statistics, you don't have to look at them but, I always find it interesting to see who had the most of what.

See ya,

The Game











Explanation of Map



Now that you have an image of the map I can begin explaning about the map. The map has four starting locations, each close to the corners of the maps. Each starting
location has two natural expansions connected to it. One expansion is behind the base so that you have a safe expansion. The other expansion is right in front. The
path to your base leads right to the expansion. Each main base is on High Dirt. And everything else is on the lower dirt. There are also two extra expansions in the
middle North and South. Each of these expansions have three Vespene Geysers. Every other place has two vespene geysers and around nine mineral patches each. Now then
let us get on with the fight aye?


ManInTheShadow as chosen Protoss vs. Cairn_Bloodhoof
as chosen Zerg on the map, Death in the Center. The map is obviously unknown to the Starcraft Community because it is one of my very own maps that I have made.

Early Game


Both ManInTheShadow and Cairn_Bloodhoof start out with a normal build for the races. Cairn
decides to go ahead and build up a little bit. As does Man.

Although Man's build is pretty normal it almost looks like he is going for a Zealot rush on Cairn. Luckily for
Cairn he didn't decide to because he wouldn't have been able to hold off an assault from Man. Notice how Man
decides to build lots of Pylons so that he has plenty of Psi supply later on in the game. He is a crafty one indeed. When Cairn finally finds Man he is now building a
Cybernetics Core, and Cairn runs out of the base in fear of Dragoons.


Throughout the beginning of the game Man is outreasourcing and outnumbering Cairn.
Finally five minutes into the game we catch out first glimpse of fighting units from Cairn. Now Cairn is outnumbering Man
by about two to one. Man currently has 5 Zealots and 2 Dragoons.



Mid Game


During the whole fight Cairn never ceases to explore his enemies base making sure of what technologies and how many units the enemy has. Cairn notices that Man
is now building a Stargate!
Not good news for Cairn if he wants to win this game. Cairn is a little shakey now, as he is prepared for Man to launch the ever
so frightful Carriers upon him. As soon as Cairn sees that Man is starting to make a Stargate he starts to change from Hydralisks to Mutalisks. This in turn gives him a nice litle mix of units to use.
Cairn decides that now is the time to unleash the havoc of which can come from Mutalisk harrasment. This is the second confrontation that the two get into as before Man sent two Scouts to scout for
Cairn's base. The second confrontation which is exactly 12:16 minutes into the game just happens to be the....

First Blood




























Cairn makes quite a bit of use out of the harassment and kills five Probes. Then runs when a Scout decides to intervene. Then he comes back and kills one more Probe before running. Now that we are 13:00 minutes
into the game it is time to have a Recap!
