Please excuse the gay font not many colors left to type in with a 7 player FFA.  I've been reading some of the better reports lately and most of the introductions go along the lines of "um well read this well my pics download onto ur crappy little modem"  So I decide if these guys such as Dagomar, Blaze, CHJ, JV, and others can get good ratings with intros like that then maybe I can to... So with out further Ado I present you with my

Introduction

Well you read this the pics are downloading... Joe Smurf I know I spelled pictures wrong so you don't have to tell me in the comments section ok? If any of you readers have read this far with out getting disgusted and turning away then THANKS and now I present you with my third Battlereport.

Early Game of Dieing Newbs

The map was Chain lightning a map I myself had never played on before.  It's size is 128x96 it holds 8 players, 1 player in all 4 corners and a player on each flat side as well.  It has numerous areas to expand and is full of cliffs which give a terran player with tanks an advantage. 

The Starting Positions

Findail: I don't know much about this player except he was in nh's on May 28, 2002 looking for a battle.  He is good at SC. He drew zerg. 

Serephina: Another nh's regular who is a very angry person.  I was unable to get any screen shots of some of the things he said about the other players but he needs some anger management classes.  He is a mediocre Sc player.  He chose protoss.

Perelandra: He left to early in the battle to be able to tell you much about him except he drew protoss.

Titans-thesoby (me):  Very new to SC, I have written 2 battlereports but only one is worth reading.  I drew protoss.

GrayDoom: A very GOOD SC player.  Also a regular at nh's.  He drew terran

c.FA)Chill: A great SC player.  He amazed me during this game with his ability to piss off everyone in the game and still be able to handle them. He chose zerg.

Then with a screech of landing metal, mutating hatcherys, and warping nexus's the players have arrived upon planet Chain Lightning.  Some early game chit chat takes place well the players send there gay (meaning happy) collectors to finance the oncoming war.

As the game begans I send out a scouting probe which discovers c.FA)Chill's bustering main.   I go for an interesting strategy I made up on my own "build as much shit as possible to kill other shit with" my build order goes as follows and it follows no real strategy.  8-pylon, 10-gateway, 12-forge, 15-pylon, 15-cannon, 15-cannon, 15-cannon, 15-pylon, 18-cannon, 18-cannon.  I decide that early on I'll build a cannon wall and mass some zealots behind it with well aiming at a force of carriers backed by zealots.  So I start climbing the ladder of buildings towards my ultimate goal.  I build an early expansion at my natural expansion at 5o'clock.

Perelandra leaves the game.  

Serephina also sends out a scouting probe which finds Perelandra's empty base.  Serephina warps in pylon at 8, 11-gateway, 12-forge, 17-cannon, 17-pylon, 18-nexus expansion, 18-pylon.  Serephina builds an early expansion at 8 o'clock.  Serephina seems to be heading for a mass dragoon army.  

  c.FA)Chill pulls the controversial extractor trick at 9, 12-hatchery, 13-spawning, 20-den, 21-extractor.  Early on c.FA)Chill notices Findail's expansion to the left of his base. c.FA)Chill builds a quick hatch at choke (12) and when Findails early hatch warps in c.FA)Chill immediately mutates a sunken colony next to Findails hatch.  c.Fa)Chill destroys the hatchery and sends in his first batch of lings to punish Findails for such a risky move.  c.FA)Chill kills Findails with ease after findails used all his minerals on his early expo.  c.FA)chill begins building again after disposing of Findails and seems to be heading towards a defiler/hydra strategy.

GrayDoom sends his porno addicted SCV's to mine and builds a depot on 7, 10-rax, 12-refinery,15-bunker, 16-factory.  He builds a wrap around defense around his CC.   This son of a bitch has an aura around him that tells you he knows what's going down. His strategy seems to follow along the lines of vulture mines, tanks, and goliaths.   GrayDoom's main is at 4o'clock right next to my early expansion and Graydoom quickly sieges tanks on it from the higher ground of his main.  The tanks rain destruction down upon my expansion.

Well grizzled old GrayDoom's tanks rip my defenseless expansion apart my carriers warp out and I rush to make interceptors.  Serephina has recently created his 2nd expansion at 10 o'clock.  c.FA)Chill also now has a second expansion at 11o'clock right next to Serephina's 10 o'clock expansion.  Meanwhile... GrayDoom has royal ass raped my expansion and moved in his own expansion there.  GrayDoom protects his new expansion at 5 o'clock with tanks and turrets.  At this point my 4 carriers are stocked with interceptors and they go in to retake my expansion.  At first it looks like I'm gonna take my expansion back but GrayDoom sends down a pack of 12 gollies which quickly take out my measly 4 carriers.  At this point I've been searching for a place to expand but I can't manage to find a place, I've out mined my main and I concede the match but am allowed to stay and observe.  

Mid game of no newbs

Update:

Serephina seems to take c.FA)chill's new 11 o'clock expansion as some sort of invasion because about 3 minutes after c.FA)Chill's expansion gets running Serephina attacks with upgraded goons. c.FA)Chill holds the goons at bay using hydras and sunkens .

The 3 players left continue to mass there forces.  GrayDoom begins to construct rax's it seems he's heading towards M&M's.  c.FA)Chill has 3 bases with one mined out and he is raking in more minerals then he knows what to do with.  He begins massing hydralisks sided with defilers for there dark plague.  Serephina continues to mass goons and also holds 2 expos and one main.  c.FA)Chill decides he currently has a large enough army of hydras/defilers and he invades GrayDoom.  Serephina observes c.FA)Chill's troops moving out and the little bitch with a bad mouth serephina sees it as a terrific opportunity to attack c.FA)Chill.  So while all of c.FA)Chill's forces our out attacking GrayDoom Serephina rushes in to attack c.FA)Chill's base's.  

 GrayDoom quickly denies c.FA)Chill's attack with vulture mines and siege tanks.  But... serephina's attack cause more damage his goons shooting balls of plasma all over c.FA)chill's base.  Serephina quickly takes out c.FA)chill's 11 o'clock expansion.  But c.FA)Chill has many minerals in the bank and is quickly able to remass and army to rival serephina's goons.  Serephina decides that it would be better to withdraw his forces and build more.  GrayDoom has seemingly been untouched this entire battle and he decides it's time to take out some of the competition.  GrayDoom hold almighty power of the map at this point with a larger army then any other player and less land to defend then the other players.  GrayDoom sends tanks through my base and sieges them next to serephina's 6 o'clock expansion on higher ground.  serephina seems to just let his expansion go realizing the goons would be ripped apart by the siege tanks.  But GrayDoom is not done just yet after taking serephina's 6 o'clock expansion he moves in and takes out serephina's 8 o'clock expansion GrayDoom is yet to take any resistance from serephina even as he rips his buildings apart.  Serephina loss leaves the game in a flurry of swears.

Late Game defilers vs M&M

GrayDoom turns his troops around and pulls them right out of serephina's empty base.  c.FA)Chill has massed a large army of hydras and defilers.  While GrayDoom has tanks backed by a very large army of M&M's.  c.FA)Chill sensing the economic advantage GrayDoom holds over him decides to attack right away.  c.Fa)Chill's army is raped so fast it's not even worth a picture. GrayDoom sends in a portion of his M&M army and a large group of siege tanks and is able to easly finish off c.FA)Chill's last strong holds. 

GG was said by all and the game ended.

FFA's are hard and confusing to write
