      Alright, this is my 3rd stab at a battle report. Yes, my 2nd was ...unsattisfactory...to say the least, but I will make up for it in

THE BATTLE OF THE CHOBO GENERALS


THE PREGAME...
      The pregame was underway, with me and Rommel_1942 already waiting for someone to join.The game name was"2v2 Blood lust", and the map was *blech* Lost Temple.After we talked about such things as zerg ownage and how micro owns serious ass, 2 GOSU players join. To save me and my partner's lives, I'm going to call them"Bob" and "Joe"(actually, I can't remember they're names...). So "bob" and "joe" start talking to me and rommel while we strategize.Okay, enough talk, let's kill. 5...4...3...2...1...game start.
The battle begins
      The game begins,and me and rommel ally up. "Joe" and "Bob" random to brown toss and blue protoss, while I pick red toss and my partner randoms to green zerg. Rommel quickly sends an overlord to scout the area, while I start climbing the perverbial tech tree. After I build a pylon,probe,forge,and gateway, I send my zealot to scout. Low and behold, we find both joe and bob. My zealot dies bravely fighting a cannon, and Rommel's zerglings die to more zealots. After about 5 mins, my base looks something like this:

      I now have 6 cannons, 5 zealots,and about 23 probes. I'm quickly running out of mins, so I expand to the 5 o'clock base. Meanwhile, Rommel harasses both joe and bob with his zerglings. This is his tactic through the whole game,basically. He uses some mutas, but who cares about him?j/k. I was monitoring MY base, not his.
Not true, I got two control groups of Hydras and one control group of lings and five Lurkers and attacked brown's expansion with them. It failed miserably to an assload of cannons. -- Rommel_1942

      Anyway, Rommel sends his mutas to scout,and...SUCCESS! He finds joe's 11 o'clock expansion,which soon dies to glave wurms galore. Feeling rather cocky now, Rommel sends his mutas at the main base, only to die to cannons.
      Now for a status check. This is rommel's base:
No, it's not impressive, it sucks. -- Rommel_1942       impressive,huh? Those mutas are constantly being built.
The Caped crapholes attack
      So while I'm distracted by an ursadon(damn cute bears...) I hear the dreaded words YOUR BASE IS UNDER ATTACK.NOOO!!! Now what?!?!? This ...interesting...conversation takes place...

joe:"haha"
me:"WTF??!?!?!"
joe:"Like my DT's?"
me:"You stupid bastard! That's cheap"
joe:"^^"

      THAT CHOBO BASTARD! HE'S SENDING IN DT'S!NOOO!
I'm an idiot for not getting Lurkers. -- Rommel_1942
The Fluffy F*ckers
      We both watch in horror as the psychic badasses known as protoss annihilate drone after drone. Sensing the end, I send what forces I have left to help. We manage to kill some attackers, but they just keep coming.
      After no more than 5 mins of the original attack, we realize we are doomed, and admit defeat. We simply watch in horror as our beloved zerg and toss colonies fall to forces of protoss. This is the last image I see before the end...

Plz, leave me out of the comments secton, I'm begging you. -- Rommel_1942

The end of it all
      That's right.Nothing. Game over.Well, you can't win em all...
The results...
Lessons learned
1.Protoss own serious ass
2. Dark Templars piss me off
3. Never harass with zergligs
4. Remember player's names...
      Oh, by the way, if you happen to play Lost temple, one word. EXPAND. I learned the hard way...
