Ahhhhhhh, the nuke rush, my favorite strat. I don't like it on Winter Conquest though, too often I get dropped or earlier attacked and die because of my nuke-crazy ways. I havn't tested this, but I think you can get nukes in about 8-10 minutes on fastest speed, but it leaves you open. I like it when someone turtles. HEHEHE. I like Sherwood Forest for nuke rushing.

Awesome report. I've converted from a building nuker to an airforce or peon nuker, and you're right, it works alot better.
#3 Smoked Pork[4029]
You know, I really like this report

HeHeHe nuke rush.... How many times had you done that Whoop? hehe =)

oh BTW, if you are able to sneak in a ghost in enemy's base, you can hide the ghost at just north of refinery so enemy can't see it -- unless he got detection and defense in range. =)

Don't you love how the flying units hide the dot? That's so fun. Yeah Nuke rushing is damn risky. Lately I haven't nuked as much, I got to get back into it. It's one of my main weapons versus protoss in a late game situation though. It's fun to read stories of successful nuke strats like that. That was quick thinking with the targeting the dropship and overlord.

Great report. I'll be technical for the hell of it: I think zerg are the swarm, and orcs are the horde =)

You know, when a Protoss builds alot of cannons, they often don't have many pylons for support. And so they bunch their tech buildings in one place. Once, I got a nuke and an EMP on a Forge, Core, Citadel, Archives, Robo Fac, Cannon, and Pylon. The response?

"Shit."

Mylar has left the game.
.Praetor, the Hardcore Nuke-Rusher. Ask Ape, Sqick, and TheAntar. I didn't even get a machine shop, let alone research seige.

Flying units cover the dot? Really? That I truly did not
know. You shouldn't have mentioned it and kept me in
the dark! ^_^

#11 Mind Twist, Official UnOfficial Rater[4294]
Heh. Nukes. One of the key ingredients for a 10. You got it easy. Don't forget malt liquor, it's always useful!
#12 [IceBerG][4429]
Hehe.. fun game. I was suprised how quickly that nuke was built. To defend my name, I was doing more than Whoop has indicated. ;-) I sent quite a few lings and some hydra to help whoop against the tank push. I did some damage, but whoop really helped his cause with his good placement of the tank. Early in the game I did a drop on Syd's partner and did some damage... lurkers maybe? Then I tried to get cute and drop 2 hydras and 1 lurker on Syds expansion. Unfortunately I burrowed w/in sight of the turret and tank. ;-( Then once the game was basically decided (Mid-game) I went to check Syd's main and found the minerals undefended. I dropped 2 lurkers and killed about 10 scvs, 8-10 marines, 1 tank, 1 gol... worth the trade. ;-)

Whoop did do very well that game I must admit. If I can hold an attack, and defend him, the nuke rush is fun! The biggest reason to nuke rush... fun and challenging.

C yas~!
