Review
This was a fairly good game. It has some strong players in it showing some decent Comet Catcher strategies. Lets get on with the review.

Buzzin_187: Starts vehicle. Played a good game but didn't try to expand at all. He stayed in his own little space pretty much the whole game. He did get some mass rockos pretty early on which helped him stay in the game much longer. Did a good job of holding off xxxAQUAxxx's attacks and the early double teaming he received until xxxAQUAxxx's attacks just overwhelmed his defenses and penetrated into his base. He played a strong game and lasted longer than I thought he would. He basically gets hammered by Aqua the last half of the game.

Scope__: Starts vehicle. His rush wasn't very effective. He only took a construction vehicle of Radeon's which didn't do much damage seeing as how Radeon had plenty. He had a hard time in the beginning keeping Radeon's and and Aqua's flashes out of his base. Although he was continuously flash raided he managed to set up 4 vehicle plants to fend it off a little better. Doesn't really build that strong of a defense. He relies on his attack units to defend his base for him. This later lets Radeon penetrate into his base and take out a plant or two. Aboutmidway through the game he decides to go advanced. He fails to set up some defense around where he will be doing this and quickly loses his advanced lab. He gets a decent sized sammie hoard near the end of the game but its too little too late.

X_Radeon: Starts vehicle. Doesn't try to rush but instead expands like mad. He penetrates Scope's base in the beginning doing some damage and slowing Scope down. He sets up a pretty good defense early in the game close to Scope's base not allowing him to expand at all. In his second or third attack he gets into Scope's base and starts to kill his plants but is quickly distracted when he sees Scope's commander. He tries to kill Scope but ends up losing his units. He could have ended the game way sooner if he had just stayed with killing Scope's vehicle plants. He proceeds to get advanced and builds a few fusion plants and moho metal makers. He basically continued to wear Scope down the entire game.

xxxAQUAxxx: Starts vehicle. His rush takes out a few of Buzzin's metal extractors and slows him down a bit. He expands almost as fast as radeon and sets up a mild defense fairly close to buzzin's base. He quickly sets up two vehicle plants to attack buzzin. He does a good job in taking out Scope's offensive movements. He continuously sends in units one by one instead of masing them and attacking. This costs him many units and isn't able to kill of Buzzin for quite awhile. Once he had Buzzin down to a few plants and resources he didn't do much to attack him except his defense which wasn't much at the time. He should have taken out the 3 plants in front of his attack units at the time.

This game is worth the download if you are looking for some good Comet Catcher strategies. But other than that it was a typical Comer Catcher game.
