Hi Speed,

could you have a look at this 1vs1 replay (KaBumm - 2970903 on Syrtis Major).

I think I had a good start but then fell behind and was flooded by his troops :roll: .

Cheers

Hi Speed2, in regards to my PM this is the game I told you about. I really play to 100% of my ability here and it made me very angry to lose. It is on Point of Reach. Somehow I lose air superiority and then lose my whole navy. He is also very very lucky at the start and shoots down two of the transports I send to secure the left island.

Jesters to counter Zthuee's as Cybran?

Postby Flynn » 13 Jan 2015, 16:12

I definitely think the Zthuee's were the main cause of my demise in this game on Roanke's Abyss. After reviewing the replay and thinking about what the pros would say I think they would recommend to use Jesters to counter the Zthuee spam. This of course would require air superiority. At the start if you look at my build order I am quite significantly ahead with getting my factories up, but bombers fail to destroy his micro'ed engineers and thus he gets factories established on the islands and I can't do anything about it. After that obviously I fall behind in unit numbers and tech. Don't worry, it is only about 20 mins long despite being a Roanke game.

On roanoke your main defense against zthuees should be frigates, maybe killing the occasional stray zthuee with a t1 bomber.

I just didn't have the eco to frig spam because his Zthuees kept destroying my expanding engineers though :| Even if I try to build factories it only takes a couple of Zthuees to take the factory out.
