This game perfectly shows how crappy 1.02 was and also should disilluse the guys stating how good the 1.02 pros were compared to 1.03 pros.
My lil sister got better siege micro then this isen - no need to speak about no ram rush - it was the srat not to do
oh well Gondor played a very good 1.02 i think even when like all knights died/should have died
As someone pointed out, I didn't ram rush because I was using my strat vs the best known gondor, who actually knew I was trying Containment and that I wasn't going to ram rush, which is why he didn't bother preparing for one. And tbh, if I had attempted a RAM rush it would have been a must faster game, he would have had free reign to harrass my base and mills to death and finish me with soldiers, if his horses didn't finish me first.
Any decent gondor playing a standard game vs isengard would have prepared for a ram rush and defeated it, which leaves isen at a huge disadvantage and basically seals their defeat. That being the case, my strat was not the norm and I won every game vs overpowered gondors accept this one. Take into account that he KNEW I was using containment, and that I lost about 7 mines at once to fire during siege, and that I kept it a close game vs the best gondor in the game using the worst matchup, isen vs gondor, and you can see why it's considered a decent replay with decent gameplay and decent strategy.
Perhaps your sister should play pilly, show him a thing or two...
