hej ppl

i thought this was a nice game with some flaws on both sides

but exept for some micro mistakes i couldnt really figure out what i did wrong post-13661-1143531603.gif

i had some lag on his host which caused my units to listen badly sometimes but not really anything to be the reason for this loss (thats just my terrible FoL mirror skills happy.gif) it was the reason how i lost my first horse batt to those wargs, cuz they didnt retread wacko.gif

anyway id like a review with the stuff i could have done better and what i did good (not many there probs tongue.gif)

ty in advance happy.gif

Review by: Gamroth

Starting positions:
Gondor/KAN|SONKA - West
Rohan/FoD}Sjosty - East

Overview:

Well an interesting Gondor vs Rohan, Rohan was outplayed in early/mid game and was only able to last as long as he did due to a few poor mistakes from SONKA. GG Guys.


Gondor/KAN|SONKA

You played a good game. The only things i can really comment on is firstly the time at which you started building your statues. You started too late and from that situation it would have been better for you to just buy at full price as it would have made transition to upgrades far easier. Combining Rangers & TGs loses their formations. You should think about making your combos as soon as you have all upgrades + Gandy. This will help you keep the pressure on our opponent. WP.
  • Consider a more defensive start - yours was risky (although was random mir)
  • Too late building your statues, build at 3000 or so
  • Start making your combos as soon as you have Gandy + all Ups
  • Dont combine Rangers & TGs


Rohan/FoD}Sjosty

Your poor start in this game made it difficult for you throughout. You will get the faster rohirrim out, after creeping with these send the level up horses to pursue his knights while your next horse creeps. If you can do this effectively he will end up with very few creeps and all your horses should be getting rank 2. If GtW gets out early like this i would recommend getting Ara before shields. HS will not protect you from Gandy alone so the faster you get Ara the quicker you can get back in the game. Only get HS first if you will destroy your stables after which you didnt. If eagles are owning your horses while in your base, just run in and out of your postern gate as they cant hit units whilst inside - just watch out for Gandy IL as they run back through! Get a faster archery range and make your combos, getting at an Outpost is always insecure when Gandys about. Nice leveling of Eomer though, maybe accompany him with a couple of RA's once he has LD to prevent Gandy harassment. Nice game anyway.
  • send more peasants to his side, double soldier = weak defense on his famrs
  • your general horse micro, you lost rohirrim creeping and fighting knights (although not your host)
  • save for Ara before shields
  • remember to demolish your farms before red health, especially when your opponent is searching for GtW PP

Overall Rating: 5
