y tho

he didn't even do enough damage to catch up from his epic stall all game but you honestly thought a mantis was going to stop an aurora raid over the water?

i don't like that map either, i got fucked yesterday on it. My opponent played aeon, and made first bomber, i didn't recover from that first strike. Next time i'll try first inti ... or just leave it and rather not play the map then getting pissed off.

I've done plenty of first bombers in teamgames, they rock! UEF Scorcher needs just 2 passes to kill a mex/pgen and it has excellent AoE. It's also good at hitting targets, unlike its previous version.

Consider this: you were only making your second fac with one engineer, when it dies, you were over halfway to having it built
If you used a second engineer or better yet: the acu that walked halfway across the map to get a single mex, you could have had your air factory and even an interceptor out to kill his (4th, not first) bomber

But hey blame balance right?

Also, on high noon
It's one of the only 10km navy maps i can think of that doesn't end in an acu into the navy facs but all of you guys are too busy trying to suicide your acus, why??

In almost every map that isn't 20x20 you should make a land scout 3rd and you'll have no trouble seeing a bomber coming
It takes very little time and it's not like there's much need for more engineers on high noon , since everything is so far away

I played a game on High noon as well today (replay in the "fix ladder maps" thread). I really really really really really hate that map. Did win because my opponent hates it as much as me. I did see an early bomber against me, but it wasn't a first bomber. The first engy it targeted didn't stand a chance (I noticed he had it only then) and I did manage to dodge with the second target once. Third target survived.

I must say that the bomber was a bit hampered by the anti-offmap technique but my fighters were stopped by it as well. I think it's possible to dodge bombers but it's certainly harder to do.

On High noon I go 5x engineer and 2 AA but for a first bomber it will probably be too late...
