Hey everybody. I know that my last "Story" was a little "off" , but as Hasn00b figured out it was only a trick to prepare you for my next report. I have tried to make as much improvement as possible. Flaming will be down to a minimum. Plz press F11 because its better that way. If you don't know what EE is or what types of units are in this game check out:

BTW I did this with some program so I dont know how this will turn out. Sorry for the widescreen : \

 



EE: Alternate Timeline

One day after a long, hard day at school I came home and quickly started up my computer. I NEEDED TO PLAY and get school and learning out of my poor depleted brain. I started up EE and started a game of 1vs1. A guy named playEEgame came in and we were on our way.

The settings were as all my games settings were:

1- Industrial age to industrial age

2- Tourney Low resources (very low)

3- Custom Civs (civilizations that you made yourself)

4- Plains

The Players were:

Some_God= ME!

playEEgame= an ok player ;D

 


LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

So the game began with me (blue) on the North-West position while play (red) went to the South-East position. As i started searching for the forage patch ( The first main source of food ) I found out that it was very close to food ( I don't need to explain this, do I? ), wood ( to build buildings ), Iron ( To build infantry ) , and stone ( a very valuebal resources which no one uses :D ). I started to build a settlement in between the resources and building citizens to work on them. When i had free time I noticed that play also got lucky. His forage patch was close to a number of resources too.



 

I chose my Custom Civ ( which is a secret ) and started going for the iron to build my hordes of infantry. I noticed that there was a red spot on my mini map, so I quickly turned to that location and saw a dead red scout dog. PlayEEgame now knew what kind of units I was using. I got really worried and started to build more and more infantry units. I got myself a scout dog and was ready to find out what he had. I got the dog to go to the location where I thought he was gathering resources. If I could see what resources he had i could probably tell what kind of units he was building. I when the dog got there I saw a farm with no citizens working on it. Then I went a little more deeper into enemy territory where my dog died, but not before I had a glimpse at what unit killed my dog. It was a Dragoon.



 

I knew this was going to be a hard game... every time someone uses Cavalry ( Dragoons and Cuirassiers) and you use infantry, it becomes very difficult to defeat the pair, unless the opponent is a n00b or he doesn't know how to micro during battle. I become nervous. I think "If I attack now it might cripple him from making a HUGE army" but then then another thought says "If you attack him now and he beats you, he might go to your base and kill you". My thoughts made a compromise and told me to take a little number of units from small army, deploy them in the enemy territory, and cripple his economy.



 

The Double-Featured Battle

I launched the small group of soldiers at the enemy base. I quickly destroyed that farm that had no one working on it. I moved deeper into enemy territory and then I saw "THE" army. 3 or 4 Cav were attacking my troops. "OMG what a n00b" I thought, but then a red X mark appeared in front of my base. I finally got there when I saw his real army attacking me. From what it looked like we both were micro-ing like crazy. He used his Dragoons to kill the anti-horse units while his Cuirassiers where tearing up my regular infantry, while I was using my regular soldiers to kill his Dragoons while my anti-horse infantry tried to kill his Cuirassiers.



 

In the end I won because I had the reinforcements arrive quickly to me because we were fighting right near my base. Meanwhile the fighting was still raging in reds territory. He had a tower which was killing some of my troops ( which was very annoying, but I couldn't bring it down because i was low on soldiers ). In the end Red won in his base for the same reason I won in my base. I thought that i made a hole in his economy ( not a big hole though ). Then suddenly a problem arose, I had no food. I checked to see what was the problem and i found out that the forage patch had run out of food. OH-SH*T. I quickly built up a farm with the citizens that had nothing to do. I could only hope that red doesn't attack me. Then the food kept coming in... and I started to mine gold for the Dragoons that i was going to make. I kept focusing on making a better military when something bad happened.


Update

Currently we are equal in everything. We haven lost a lot of ground to each other. But the slow down of my food income might make me suffer throughout the game. My army is now a mixed force ready to battle.

 



 


The Worst Kind Of War

The red X appeared where i least expected it. Red took a bunch of Cav units and came through on the top-right side of my base. He quickly went for my economy and took it all out before my Military units could even respond. When my military units got there it was already too late. Most of my citizens were dead and my economy was in shambles. Red was using what Cav units are meant to do, RAID. This had become a war of attrition.



 

Real Red

Right now i didn't know what to think ... but then in 1 sec. a thought said "REVENGE". I put together all the men I could scrape up and started marching towards reds base. I quickly demolished the first buildings I saw. This was going to be a hell of a battle. After I had gotten reds attention with my soldiers he came with his Cav units and in numbers."Oh Boy" I thought to myself. We started "Dancing" around when we broke the music CD and started Battling and micro-ing. We churned up a storm of gunfire and sword slashing.



 

 

"They say Blood is thicker than Water, But not as quenching"

Town of The Dead

After most of his units and our units died we started running from each other. In needed to regroup. He probably built extra units during that battle. I didn't have much manpower left and my objective was to take out that pesky tower. If i could get it I could get a chance at killing red. Sadly red did build up a force of reinforcement Cav. He quickly raped my units : (.



 

The War Comes Home

With my main military power destroyed and my economy almost dead I started to rebuild with what I had. It was too late though and Red marched into my base with little resistance. I resigned.
