This is gonna suck, but lets see how the HTML turns out..
Greetings!!!
I am Von Doom.
I am going to tell you about a game I played the other day..
I had just lost 2 games to various reasons and I wanted no more..
But there in NoHunters 2 guys sayz that any1 who wants to play
come to channel XXX.
So I did.
I had a new account and with 2 losses they thought me bad, and so when
a forth guy came along with good stats I waz put with him.
THE GAME!

Map:
LOST TEMPLE!!!

Would ya believe it???
As U can see on the Intro image at the top, I and my enemies chose Terran, and my poor Ally chose Zerg.
I was a bit afraid of Terran Cuz I thought I'd seen him at the Ladder top 30 somewhere.. so I played defensively...

Early Game
I went for a power build with 1 rax and 2 factories.
I scouted with my SCV named Marina. She was a medic who were too wild for simple medic duties.. and so she were trained to a expert scout.
She went up Terran's ramp without problems. She passed by an empty bunker and headed on towards the base. Then bad things happened... I got busy with quarreling Marines back home and I left her unchecked halfway to Terran´s base.
A few seconds later I heard a scream on my radio:
-Aaaaarrrggghh!! That Bitch-Ass Marine shot me in the back... DAMNIT!!
-Ok. Just get outta there sugah.. I dont want to lose you now.
-Sure thing, the Marine who can keep up with me is not yet born.. I am out of his base now, I am going towards the other on
-Just be careful darlin'.. When you come back I´m gonna give U.. hehe..
-Ohh no, look sir, another empty bunker atop the ramp.. when are those dumb-asses gonna leaAAARRHHHGGHH!!!
-Marina!!!
-MARINA!!
-Marina??
Damn.
Shes dead...
The blood flowing down the ramp from the tricky bunker says it all.
Mourning I look into my ally's base..
4 drones mining minerals...
hmm..
I ask him what he's doing.
He sayz he´s going a quick expand..
And I sure see a lone morphing hatchery at his natural.
Well I nevermind that and get a comsat and start to bunker up my base.
Nothing happens..
I get Tanks..
Nothing..
I scan them..
LARGE!!
Nothing happens.
I get turrets and expand.
Then finally a lone marine shows up at my front door..
CARRYING MARINAS TOES IN A BAG!!!
Three tanks tests if he can head-butt 3 LARGE shells..
He couldent..
There were pieces of him everywhere.
By now I had placed lots of mines around my base and taken the island at the
upper left corner.
A scouting Vulture went over to Terran's base but a lone marine stands at
the ramp. The Vulture kills him and goes to NightHawks base..
On his way there he encounters a buncha' M&M&'s he lays a mine and killes some..
They shoot at him, he lays another.. He killes more.
He attacks and lures a lone marine into another newly laid mine.
The same amount of M&M's comes from Terrans Base, but encounters old Mines
laying around, and Dies horribly.
Terran has sieged a tank on his cliff facing my 12.00 base, and they both
attacks with combined forces but runs into a wall called:
TANKS+Wraiths+Bunkers
My goliaths who by now were several weren't allowed to play, since they
suck facing M&M's but they killed a lone attacking wraith at my minerals..

MID GAME / LATE GAME
Do you wonder what my ally has been doing all this time??
NOTHING!
He still had 4-5 drones at minerals on each base and a few Zerglings and
some scattered sunkens and spores..
I hoped bitterly that my enemies wouldent notice this...
They had attacked once B4 with a lone marine but he had died at the ramp
and so they focused on me.
NOT!
They dropped him with Tanks+M&M's+Wraiths+SV+Vultures..
Both of 'em.. His 8lings stood no chance..
He had now more Units but they were some where else..
He cried for help..
I sent all my Wraiths from various locations and loaded up 2 dropships with
a variety of units..
The wraiths did no good and my dropship was slow.
I sieged up my tanks amongst his outer base, wich was all that was left.
We had a small stand-still there a while, with my ghosts locking down and my Wraiths
sneaking around but it was evident he would die..
I knew it would be tough, even though they would almost never get past
my defenses, but they WERE 2..
But then it happens.. NightHawk78 drops.. out that is..
he must've had a comp crash or whatever but now Terran was lonely.
He surrenders, knowing I was bigger then him cuz I scanned everywhere I thought it wise..
We allied with him and won!!!
And I who thought it to be a lost game!!
NOPE!!
Here is how we started and Expanded:

And now Folks... HERE COMES THE STATS!!!




Lessons Learned..
1. I need to attack more, I had inpenetratable defenses but dont attack.

2.HeartCutters HeavyMetal Terrans work super, especially against m&m only Terrans..

3.I need to put more effort into the reports and dont wear off and the end.. I promise, one day I will
write a good one..

4.PaintShopPro 6 is better then 3, but three is faster.. I need seven..

5.Volvo is the car to drive.

6.Take more screenshots, I never do, unless the game sux then I do it all the time..

Regards..
