Here we have two average players, battling each other on Mounds of Mars.
Game Summery
We start out with Parcival north and Andrew south. Both building wind for energy and going vec for expansion.
Andrew Q’s a few flashes for harassment, while Parcival goes with slashers. Both making cons between attack units. Andrew sends in his flashes and takes out a few mexes. But Parcival has just enough MT’s and slashers to stop these flashes from causing too much trouble.
Andrew is now securing the right side of the center hill with MT’s and has built a KB plant to add some more guns the right side. Splitting his KB’s into two groups, he sends another group to the left side. Again, he is building rows of MT’s to protect from an invasion.
As Parcival concentrates too much on the right side, Andrew shoves a small mass of sam’s and rocko’s through the left side of the center hill. Parcival not having enough defense or units to his left, allows Andrew to ride all the way to the top of the map. The second time this happens, Andrew comes very close to destroying Parcival’s entire main base.
Parcival has built a couple KB labs and went ADV KB up front near the center hill just off to the right side. He gets a fusion up, but by this time, it already too late. Andrew as massed enough units to dig right through Parcival. But instead, Parcival has his commie working a bit too far into enemy territory, and Andrew takes this opportunity to kill his comm. Game over.
Not a bad game. Not a great one either. But it is something different.
