Picture it...the Valley of Re, all peaceful and serene, then who shows up?
Why, its...
The Light Side:
MasterOfMordor
Middle Right, Protoss, Purple (Chose
Random)
Jinxy: Top Left, Terran, Yellow (Chose Terran)
*Jinxy*: Yellow is Pikalicious! That's why I played so well! ^_^
What is it with Jinxy and his Pika thingies?
The Dark Side:
-CD-Wendi: Middle Left, Terran, Orange (Chose Random)
DaBonehead: Top Middle, Terran, Blue (Chose Random)
The Loony Bin... Er...
The Observer... Then again...
The Gray Side...Yeah!
Templisk: Bottom Middle, Terran (Chose Terran)
*Jinxy*: Affectionately known as "Tempy" by his friends.
No! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!
Well the game started with me [Templisk] being my normal insane self. I did an SCV rush on everyone but I decided that they had too many SCV to be worth attacking so I went back to mining so I could get a bigger army. I heard that Dropships and Science Vessels were both cool units!
*Jinxy*: Hey, I did take some screenshots. Check out Templisk's Science Vessel
army...Refer to "TSciVes.bmp"
MasterOfMordor, the lone Protoss started out by doing a Reaver drop.
DaBonehead went for a fast Marine/Medics. Maybe Crackbats.
I wasn't sure what Jinxy was doing but I think he was Marine rushing.
*Jinxy*: Check it out! I'm unpredictable! Or maybe just stupid. ^_^
Nah! I just didn't think your base was interesting enough to watch :)
Wendi was going mass Marines, not many Medics.
MasterOfMordor got attacked first. First, DaBonehead came in with 6 Marines later Wendi came in with 3 or 4 Marines.
*Wendi*: Nope, not me.
MasterOfMordor managed to hold it off with PROBE POWER and wth the help of a Zealot's life, only 2 Probes died.
DaBonehead got counterattacked by Jinxy. It looks like DaBonehead was hurting but he managed to beat Jinxy off. Wendi sent a few Marines to help.
Now minor battles were being traded back and forth,
*Jinxy*: I prefer to say "all Hell broke loose".
DaBonehead got attacked a few times and so did MasterOfMordor. DaBonehead was having some problems but PROBE POWER managed to save MasterOfMordor quite a
few times.
MasterOfMordor's Reaver dropping was slowed but using PROBE POWER, he managed to beat off another 2 Marine rushes losing only 2 probes. Later, he got a Shuttle and a Reaver and hit DaBonehead. Jinxy hit DaBonehead at the same time - a pincer attack. The power of Marines and Medics plus Reavers hurt DaBonehead badly.
DaBonehead got an expansion sometime around now at "his" (upper right) corner, as did MasterOfMordor whom took his natural.
*Jinxy*: As usual, I took forever to expand...
LOL. Last time I played with Jinxy I had like 3 expansions before he thought about expanding
Jinxy did a powerful Tank push on DaBonehead. DaBonehead never had a chance but his expansion was already running and he rebuilt right away. He was going mass Wraiths at his expansion.
*Wendi*: We decided to let his (DaBonehead) main go, and I countered Jinxy, badly.
*Jinxy*: I knew Wendi likes to go mass Marine/Medic, but I thought she was the blue player! Of course, I was caught off guard by Wendi's counterstrike..."stupid, stupid, Jinxy!!"
Jinxy said that at least 10 times during the game...
Jinxy already had a Bunker/Tank defense at blue's former base so he expanded there.
I was happily making Science Vessels and Dropships now :) I had about a dozen of each. I thought I could joke about it... I was 'attacking' SCV's with defensive matrix, etc.
I also did a massive offensive bunker on MasterOfMordor, but I didn't fill up any of the Bunkers with Marines and I asked why they were not attacking :)
*Jinxy*: Templisk! You were supposed to just observe! ^_^
Me? Just observe?
DaBonehead attacked MasterOfMordor's expansion now. However, Psionic Storm killed all the Wraiths. I missed it! :( At the sight of mass Wraiths, MasterOfMordor decided on
mass Corsair to counter. It later proved to be a life saving choice.
Wendi had 3 expansions, DaBonehead had 2, Jinxy had 2, MasterOfMordor had 2, and I [Templisk] had 2, one of which was Jinxy's old depleted base.
Another Wraith attack by DaBonehead and maybe a dozen or so Corsairs from MasterOfMordor killed a dozen or so Wraiths in less than 3 hits. EVIL!
*MasterOfMordor*: The Wraiths didn't even get a shot off!
*Jinxy*: Like I said in the game, that was "Pikalicous" ^_^
Grrr...
Soon after, Wendi launched a huge Medic and Marine attack against Jinxy. Wraiths backing them up. I tried to defend Jinxy with my Science Vessel/Dropship attack, but I think she was using some kind of hack because I killed no marines!
*Jinxy*: I swear she was blue dammit! Nooooo!
Grr... We heard this enough in the game Jinxy! Do we HAVE to fill the battle report with it? :)
Jinxy's base was razed to the ground, but he started rebuilding at DaBonehead's old base. It looks like he is teching to nukes.
*Wendi*: He sure was!
Jinxy started nuking and without enough detectors Wendi was screwed. She lost alot of her bases.
*Jinxy*: Payback! Cheer for the Light Side! Oh, and the Supply Depots are a better target!
*Wendi*: Yes, I gave up. I was out of minerals, and I was TIRED. I made a halfhearted attempt at expanding to Jinxy's start position but was soon found out, and killed.
*MasterOfMordor*: About here, Templisk was disconnected, so I'll take over from here.
*Jinxy*: Thank God for that. I thought we'd never get rid of him. ^_^
ROFL :) You managed to live this time Jinxy but I WILL manage to talk you to death next time!
During Jinxy's nuclear campaign, which consisted of about 5 Nukes, MasterOfMordor attacked DaBonehead with Corsairs/Dragoons/Dark Templars/Carriers.
DaBonehead JUST managed to hold it off.
After MasterOfMordor's attack was repelled, losing a Carrier, 2 Dark templar, one High templar, and a Corsair or two, DaBonehead sieged Jinxy's base with Tanks/Goliaths/Valks. MasterOfMordor managed to beat the attack off using
D-Web/Scouts/Storm/Dragoons/Dark Templar.
*MasterOfMordor*: I got off a couple Psionic Storms.
*Jinxy*: I had to run away...AGAIN. Arrrrgh!
During the turmoil, Wendi attacked MasterOfMordor with 4 Battlecruisers, killing a Robotics Facility. Using Psionic Storm, Corsairs (3/0 to Wendi's 0/0), and Scouts,
MasterOfMordor repelled the attack, and discovered Wendi had a base to the south of his [MasterOfMordor's] main. Jinxy moved his Ghost in place, preparing to do a single
nuke (one of his silos killed by DaBonehead's Tanks). However, Wendi came in and killed
Jinxy's Ghost with 2 Battlecrusiers.
*Jinxy*: The Ghost didn't have enough energy to stay cloaked while the Nuke was
building. I gambled that he wouldn't get caught, and I tried to recharge his energy by moving the Ghost a bit away from the target...I was found out before I could Cloak and
drop the nuke...
Seeing that Wendi has decided to go Capital ships, MasterOfMordor merges 2 Dark Templar, and researches Mind Control. Using a Corsair to bait the Cruisers he steals one of them, and kills the other with his Scouts and Corsairs. After this, Wendi gave her GG's and left honorably. All the while, Jinxy had been amassing an amazing army
of Goliaths, Vultures (yes, Vultures saved his life, several times against Wendi's hard Marine attacks), and Tanks.
*Jinxy*: Actually, those Vultures saw plenty of action earlier. I had to plow the road with them because Wendi had a ton of marines!
It was messy... Poor marines were jsut SLAUGHTERED by the vultures!
MasterOfMordor, hurting for minerals, took Wendi's last expansion. However, during the warping stages, DaBonehead executed a devastating attack. Unloading *at least* 6 Dropships on MasterOfMordor's expansion, and having his only defending templar targeted first, it was completely destroyed. MasterOfMordor attempted to Dweb the area, but it wasn't enough.
Jinxy brought in his army to intercept DaBonehead from attacking MasterOfMordor's main, first
laying an array of Spider Mines, then setting up his Seige Tanks. The attack was halted after
a huge battle involving Goliaths, with assisting Tanks, and 3 Psionic Storms.
*Jinxy*: Don't forget the Vultures. ^_^
I would NEVER forget anything :) Master wrote that!
MasterOfMordor lost most of his tech tree at his expansion, and was dependent on Jinxy for the time being. He was just getting his economy back into shape when his spotting Observers witnessed a huge attack force of Science Vessels,
Wraiths, and many Dropships. MasterOfMordor unloaded his Dark Archons and prepared to Feedback...but the unthinkable happened. DaBonehead was
disconnected, and Jinxy and MasterOfMordor didn't get the taste of razing the last building, or seeing the "player eliminated" message. But, I [MasterOfMordor] for one,
dont blame DaBonehead for intentionally disconnecting, it was probably a natural
disconnect. GG all!
*Jinxy*: It may have been a mixed blessing...maybe the Battlecrusier fleet was still building! ^_^
Grrr... Jinxy and his Pika things!!
END.
Here we go... I, Templisk wrote the basic battle report, I then sent it to Wendi who cleaned it up a bit and added her comments. Master added a few comments and filled in the ending since I disconnected :( Jinxy then cleaned it up even more because it was a bit messy with 4 people writing it and added purples name that I forgot. I posted it to BR.com and had to mess around with because copy/pause screwed it up :(
It was a cool game! Observing rules! |
