Subject: Re: Post your games here!
This was a debug match (beko vs DangerMoon) on Mushroom.wrl - the already famous giant pink mushroom map in space
The map simply rocks for small games. It was good for two players but I can imagine 3 players as well. Due the limited space and resources you have to take every single unit very serious. I played very offensive against DangerMoon who has only played 2 or 3 times against a human opponent before (but a lot of AI fights in MAX) pushing im into defence fast. He started to turtle in a ring of missile towers and crawlers giving me room to spread slowly but constant keeping him busy at the northern frontline all the time.
I played different tactics and switched from devasting assault guns to heavy armored tanks to bruise his defence and to keep him busy while I bought more updates with the 10-gold spot I luckily found. With the time I started adding infiltrators (good boys :)) that helped me a lot removing land mines as well. When I realized that DangerMoon focused to much on my ground attack units not caring to much about the "sky"/"space" I started to build some heavy armored ground attack planes. After an epic tank rush (actually the 3rd wave) I left his frontline broken and open for my planes. Infiltrators disabled anti air turrets that survived the devasting tank attack and kept shooting down the last missile turrets and factories.
We fought about 160 turns with a lot of hard contact and it was one of the funniest matches I ever played. It's also a new record I think. The game didn't crash for the whole playing time (just had some resync issues that could be solved) for nobody and it really came down to a total defeat including map revealing. Thank you a lot DangerMoon for letting me destroy the base too after I broke the missile tower ring. Most people usually give up spoiling the attacker's fun ripping the rest of the base apart
