Player summery

Man, you played an awesome game. great micro all around, op Gandalf micro for the most part. You had all the trimmings of a pro, which I outline in the pros/cons. Only a quibbles. Don’t get Farameir if you aren’t getting grades. Either go Farameir+grades or rush gandy. You bought hs very early on your stables, really hurting your econ, but yet you didn’t buy them on your knights tell very late game. try to buy them earlier next time. Whether before Gandalf or after is up to you, but certainly soon after! You bought grand harvest on your market place when you only had two farms, and before you bought grades. This was a mistake imo as you needed the grades to stand up to Rohan on the field. You had one bad elf summon where you summoned them in front of Rohan’s base in hopes of finishing off some units. This is the proper way to use them, but you had no chance of killing of the units when they were already in Rohan’s castle. Finely, you bought towers to early. Would have been better off buying some more archers. You also could of done with some desperate wall-treb buying during a few of Rohan’s attacks. Overall I just have to say great game again, really well played.

Overall player rating 7/10

Man, your micro was solid for the most part, but the little things murdered you in your sleep. First off, cash floating lost you the game. During a lot of attacks, if you had followed up with another army (which you could have had, had you been building it with your tongs of cash during the battle) you would of won. Also, you cash floated badly earlier to. You just need to watch that! Moving on, your build spot management was bad. You had armory forever and didn’t buy banner, I always tell people, you get more money from the demo’ing armory then it costs to buy banner! And then you get a farm to. You also destroyed farms for statues in base which was dumb. You only bought ara with them and it was a total waste of cash. Your bo was also dodgy. You could of done with one ha batt, although this wasn’t essential, it could of helped you destroy some wounded knight batts (as it was you had a chance to kill one once simply by sending a rohirrum batt in front of it and attacking as it only had one guy). Your biggest bo mistake was getting ents. What makes you think after you get grades Gondor will STILL not have Gandalf? If you go for grades, then get all grades, Theo, shield, and ara so when Gandalf comes out you can contain him. Then get outposts, archers, and ent and kill him. Speaking of outposts, you never bought them which you should of done. On the other hand you might of lost them, mostly do to the fact your containment was poor. You needed to have rohirrum on all fords to act as spotters then have your main force in mid as reserve to send to either side as needed. You also dint get hs tell very, very late game which wasn’t smart as they offer magic resistance when combined with heavy armor. Finely for bo, you didn’t make yeos for a while after you got archery range. Your pp use was good other than one time you should of healed theo in the beginning to save him from Gandalf and buying elves. Imo you shouldn’t of bought elves, as this meant you couldn’t get aotd in time to counter Gondor’s. Your hero micro was really very poor, as was your overall micro during the first large battle with archers. You should of won the game there, but you were incisive with your archers and it cost you, you won the fight, but it was a picric victory. Overall your game was good, but like I said all the finer points seemed to be escaping you this game.

Overall player rating 6-/10


Game summery

Game started pretty even, Gondor got creep, Rohan got one of Gondor’s farms. Both sides got horses and battled it out for mc. creeping was even, but Rohan out harassed Gondor because he got five rohirrum and grades! Gondor went for Gandalf, and Rohan for some reason went for ents after grades, Gandalf owned ents and it all went downhill from there for much of the game. -Anyone who hasn’t watched this rep stop reading b/c it’s a fun rep to watch and I don’t want to spoil it- a lot of harassment followed, them both sides got archers. A few large battles followed, and every time it seemed Rohan was about to win the game, but every time Gondor managed to hold on by the skin of his teeth. Eventually, just when Rohan seemed to be ready for final victory, Gondor got aotd and managed to pull of a win. Great game. Very, very nearly silver. Reason why it wasn’t is that Romero had very bad management of his assets including cash floating, bad build spot management, some bad spots on his bo ect.
