This is my 1st BR, so cut me some slack here.
This was played between my friend and I on modem, pretty much lag free. I started out at the 3:00 pos. while thegreat98 started at 12:00. I quickly started with 7th on rax, 8th on depot, rax done into bunk, scouting w/ supply making scv. I found him at the 1st place I looked, seeing that he was going to probably 4-5 zeal rush me. I suspected an early rush, and got a refinery, 2nd rax, and academy. He hit shortly after the acad was done, went into my scv line (just out of range of my bunk), and killed 4-5 scvs during his stay. I got range for my marines however, and he tried to contain me. Bats with medic support soon followed, and I drove him out (bats OWN zeals). I ran him back all the way to his base, eliminating all of his zeals and making it a battle between his 2 goons and my 1 bat (my bat was winning, but he micro'd and killed it =(
During this, I was producing marines and medics and teching. I suspected DT's, and got a turret at my choke. Sure enough, a DT showed up and started slashing at my marines. I easily killed it, but I was forced to abort expanding to my natural. I teched quickly to sci vessels and used it to detect the DT at my exp. I set up turrets at the exp and started constructing a CC. Somewhere during this, he took the top left island exp. I could do nothing about it so I left it alone. I began producing tanks out of my 2 factories, and when I had 6, I attacked him along with my M and Ms. I set up my tanks, and a long battle ensued. I had about 4 sci vessels at the time, and used them to spot for my tanks. He continually feedbacked the sci vessels and then killed them with photons. At least I got off a few emps at the time, but overall I did not do much. He destroyed my force with zeals and temps. After this battle, most of his forces were gone (and so were mine). He soon counterattacked with a large force of dtemps, temps, reavers, and zeals. I had just moved my forces to my exp, and held it off. I was extremely lucky as I blew up a templar (that would have done A LOT of damage) RIGHT before it cast a psi storm. I held off his force without too much difficulty.
At this point I decided to exp to my 2nd gimme because my min. at my main were running out. He did a couple of very successful psi drops on both my main and my 1st exp. He tried again, but this time I moved all my scvs. Finally I got a dropship and switched to wraiths. I also placed spider mines on the cliff above my 1st exp. After I had about 6 wraiths, I went in and caught him without detection at his main. I destroyed a few probes, but lost my wraiths to psi storm. I did not do much damage, as his main was nearly dry of minerals. I continued producing wraiths, and ghosts w/ lockdown. This was extremely helpful in the coming battle.
Near my 2nd exp, I saw carriers massing. I had 3 ghosts at the exp, with 12 sitting at my choke. I moved them up as he sent in his carriers. I lockdowned several carriers, and found several were hallucinations! however, I managed to LD some real carriers. Since there was a group of carriers (about 6-7) I emped them with a sci vessel, destroying the hallucinations. I LD'd the rest and ripped into them with wraiths. This immediately started a retaliation from me as I set up a few tanks and started attacking his choke. This time, I used an engineering bay to spot for my troops. I once again blew up all of his troops except for a reaver, a templar, and a carrier. He also managed to snag one of my sci vessels through MC. He also got out some zeals and wrecked my almost-out 2nd exp and started pounding on my first. I held this off with vultures and ghosts. I started rebuilding.
By this time, I discovered, he had exp'd to the other island. I churned more ghosts and tanks, and he eventually dropped me with 2 goons, 2 reavers, and his sci vessel he stole. I then LD'd his WHOLE drop. the only thing that didn't get LD'd was 1 shuttle. I then proceeded to destroy the helpless force with 2 marines and a tank. (I knew he was really ticked now). Since I was out of money, I exped to the 9:00's natural and built D there. He reaver dropped it, and somehow the bunk I had there with reinforcements from some marines held it off. I got it in full swing when he dropped 2 goons and a temp on the cliff there, blasting at my refinery. I began repairing the refinery like mad as I brought in a couple of wraiths and drove the force off. I started another exp using the CC that I had lifted off at my 2nd exp to the 9:00 position. My production was in full swing again, and tanks, MandM's, and wraiths were coming out rapidly. He had no income, so he tried to exp to his mineral only gimme, but I sent in my force of 7 tanks and MandM's with wraiths, and killed his massive temp/goon/zeal force. I lost 5 tanks, but with no mineral income, he conceded. The game lasted 2 Hrs. 50 Min. (We resumed the game 3 times).
2nd part later, this was long enough for me =) |
