[1.601]Glimz (BT) vs. AshesInYourMouth (Def)
« on: March 16, 2012, 02:44:08 AM »
1 hour action pack on Ango. An early huge flank from Glimz made me loose a lot of units-lost the map control it was almost gg, but I kept playing and we had a fun game till the end. Vp war, cut off war, Tank battles and massive inf play.

Hope you enjoy.

Really entertaining game but your start was too weak. I don't like bike-MG builds. Glimzy did a terrible job at countering the med bunkers which is why he lost. Should've got an observer team or mortar in midgame and a firebase in lategame, especially when 88s showed up. I counted around 6 free gren squads.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Yeah I agree about the early game, I simply made a auto start like playing 2 v2 which I play all the time. Volk+mg maybe would be better. Indeed not a high level play nor replay- lost all those grens by poor micro and lack of knowledge of soviet units. I had no idea how those guards are that powerful- they raped even vet 2 KCH head to head.

One more question, normally T-34's clumsy but which Glimz had were so fast that moving like a Cromwell on speed. They flanked my Panthers easily. How that happened? Diff kind of T-34?

T-34s are actually rather fast tanks. Maybe in your previous encounters they weren't used properly. Glimz' flanking was fairly typical of a T-34 attack.

GG. Was fun to watch. I like your building order/teching and veterancy management. Tier 1->2->4 with Def-Doc is very powerfull on Ango and was definitively the best choice.

Guards auto-healing-rate will get nerfed next patch as it seems. The big angry unstoppable Guard mobb of Glimz was indeed amazing  :o
