Lifetime Rating for Mladen: 3.0000 |  | Okay this is my first ever report and since I didnt get any imgaes from this HIGHLY enojyable game I cant say there will be any in this report . Okay me and my friend decided to do a weird kind of game . It was on BGH ( What can I say ? I dont like to expand and we only play for fun ) and we both went random . I drew Zerg and hatched in the 9oclock position while Andrew dropped in as Terran on the bottom right corner . Now this game has a few rules :
1) No ground units except probes , drones and scvs .
2) No attacks before the 30-45 minute mark . ( looong game )
3) 4-6 waves . You get to build a fleet 4-6 times and whoever wins most of these fights is the over all winner . If you both win 2 or 3 times then its the person who can finish the other one off in a continous attack .
4) Fighting can take place anywhere on the map after the first two bouts . In the first two the fighting takes place dead center .
5) Always have a good economy of 10000 + minerals and 5000 + gas before starting construction of a fleet .
Now lets begin :
We both were feeling rather cocky so I just made drones and but loads of Overlords . Andrew was at this time building a modest amount of scvs and supply depots . I didnt tech or build anything until I had both mining spots getting fully mined by about 50 drones literally . My minerals were at around 17000 and my gas at 10000 when I started building . I quickly constructed 12 hatches in my main base , three Spires , 1 Evolution Chamber , a queens nest and I upgraded to a Lair . After the queens nest was complete I upgraded to Hive . Now the fun stuff began . Andrew scouted my base with a misearable wraith and we then shared map .
What I saw amazed me . In the top right corner he was continually flying in Starports . He HAD 30 of them and I actually counted . The entire place was full of em . I said oh-oh and started construction of devourers and scourges .
He had a fleet of 16 BCs and I had around 60 Devs and maybe 50-70 scourges .
First Battle : We attacked each other at the same time in the dead center , my first wave of devs and scourges clashing with some high powered BCs . It was a long and gruelling fight with screams echoing throughout the map . I quickly glanced over the battle and microing was unnecesseary ( believe me ) . His cruisers were taking a hight toll upon my poor swarm but it was too little too late . I thrashed his fleet as my LAST 12 devs destroyed his 16th cruiser . My food level was at 78 down from 200 when the fighting started . I quickly rebuilt and saw this time he was going heavy valkyrie .
Second battle : I finished reconstruction rather quickly and saw that he had a large group of maybe 30-40 valkyries . I tried keeping my force away from his as his was only at 164 in psi and i was at 200 but it was too late . A single dev slowly floated away from the group and "bumped" into a valkyrie which called its friends and left the dev a pile of rotting flesh . My entire force charged towards his and one of the bloodiest air battles ever followed . I had a HUGE picket line of devs followed by some scourges but the valkyries were owning my devs and for every valkyrie i downed he downed around 2-3 devs . The battle was getting serious and as I saw his last valkyrie go down I breathed a sigh of relief . But I realized that the ONLY reason I won was because he didnt have a full force yet . I had 6 devs left and 3 scourges :( .
Third Battle : Can you guess what he built next ? Thats right ! Wraiths ! I was getting downright scared . I rebuilt with devs and scourges again but as he charged towards my force I knew they were doomed even though there were a DAMN lot of devs and scourges . The missiled flew and lay down de smack upon my devs and the wraiths kept firing at my tight formation downging dozens in 10 seconds flat . 5 seconds later it was over . He still had 20 wraiths and I had ZERO anything .
Fourth battle : It was 2-1 and the next two battles decided match as we agreed to only have 5 battles . I made a dev only force this time with no scourges and sent them to attack the wraiths a dozen at a time . To my suprise this time the devs owned the wriaths and they only managed to take out about 30 before my wriaths layed down the smack on THEM . It was 3-1 and I was relieved . The landscape was charred with wreckages of planes and the blood and guts of so many devs and scourges .
Fifth Battle : The final challenge . Fleet Admiral Andrew Nielsen himself was in his sleek ship the Hyperion III . His magnificent fleet stared in disbelief at the HUGE swarm of my devs and scourges . This one was gonna be intense and the battle was gonna be long and furious . These ships had Yamatos and were willing to use em . I charged , he charged , we clashed , the battle raged . This time it raged for almost half a minute ( long time for SC battle , think about it ) . The devs crashed into the BCs and the scourges tried their best to ram em . The Yamatos blew up devs by the dozens and the laser batteries kicked scourge ass . But all was vain in the end as Infested Mladen King of the Universe lay down de smack on the BC fleet with his mighty brood . Hyperion III was let to run away . But to my dismay it returned and fired a few Yamatos killing at least 4 devs . I didnt chase . Instead I let him get off Aiur where only the zerg ruled now . |
