#1general grievous^  Jan 1 2007, 21:14 PM -
[attachmentid=186214]I played this qm today, was a nice game despite the fact he dced at the end. I used my haradrim strat on this guy, and he had an unusal attack route with his starting units that allowed him to bring my mill down but I hung in. Then the one man army arrives and the game becomes frustrating again wacko.gif. Anyway I hung in there, and I managed to turn the tables on him. Review please

God I hate how hard you have to play to win with mordor in 1on1 vs these some of these gondors. I know for a fact if i played isen i'd dominate these qm gondor noobs in 10 minutes laugh.gif
Edit: The ending was pro with Gandy LOL.

2xfarm<farm<stable<farm<knight<knight<blacksmith<knight<well<more blacksmiths<archery<faramir
<archers<marketplace<grand harvest<outpost<statues<gtw<boromir<upgrades<stoneworker< castle uppgrades

Powerpointroute:

Heal<Gandalf the white

Creeps: 2/6


Pros:

+You managed to destroy one mordormill in earlygame which hurt his eco banana.gif

+Good harassing of mordors mills with your first set of horses

+You demolished your buldings before they reached red health bowdown.gif


Cons:

-Very bad creeping cry.gif 2/6 creeps so you canīt get any powerpoints

-Your knights trampled soldiers of rhun and haradrim serveral times 0wn3d.gif

-No horse shield rush to keep mordor busy to survive so you can force him to protect his base instead of attacking you smilie_naughty.gif

-Gandalf micro/use was not very great(you expanded him and then he died to some trolls+wk)


Player Comment:

You played a very strange non horse shield strat which prevented you to harass the mordorbase much more.
A good horseshieldrush would probably have helped. The guide is Here:Krys1ers HS RUSH
Next time try to creep with your horses and harass after so you will get more powerpoints and even a free banner and you can prevent mordor from getting industry early. After you gandalf came out you couldnīt really manage to use your advantage so at the end he dominated the field. One last thing: Never ever trample pikes with your horses even not haradrim if you dont have horse shields.
Your gandalf use wasnīt really good try to lame with him more skilled in the future,also a Gandalf tip:KLICK HERE

Good Luck and Have fun with this game in the future!!!!

<outpost with tree furnances<trolls< drummer trolls<witchking<orcpit<orcs&archers<outpost with siegeworks and mumakil pen
<some mumaks<some catapults

Powerpointroute:

Eye of sauron< tainted land<industry<darkness

Creeps: 4/6

Pros:

+Very good use of laborers to scout

+Very good creeping for this matchup(4/6) thumb.gif

+You used bloodthirsty infront of a drummertroll to get highranked orcs

+Witchking finished his nearly dead gandalf off when he wantd to escape tongue.gif

+Your soldier of rhun spamm your witchking and yournazgul helped to ceep/get mapcontrol back

Cons:

-No extra laborers to boost your economy wacko.gif

-In late game you did sokme cashfloating wacko.gif

-You lost a mill in early game


Playercomments:

You played a very solid game with a very good creeping ,but you did a few mistakes:
Loosing the mill in early game, no extra laborers,a bit cashfloating in late game .
try to avoid these few things then your mordor will nearly be perfect

Good Luck in the future and have fun with the game!!!



Ratings:

maxrage 4

P2B|Blunder` 6


Entertainmentrating: 4

Because it was a pretty clear victory for blunder since maxrange did no horseshieldrush which gave blunder the chance to
get an army so blounder was able to win this game pretty fast.



Overallrating: 5
