The game before this i tried to win a gob mirror only building spiders and trolls, I phailed that game
I do some pretty weird shit in general and this game really doesn't disappoint. It surprisingly turned into a good game as well.

Overview:
An out of the ordinary start to the game which contributed to a fun and unusual game. Blinky started out with an unconventional, 4 farm, double Archery Range strat. This worked out extremely well vs the predicted GW spam. Onlyluck gifted PP's to Blinky by trying to harrass, but failing miserably with Gondor Archers on every farm. Once Onlyluck got the hang of things and finally got some SR's out by mid-game, this turned out to be quite a good game. Blinky took some creeps with 2 forward barracks, while his Rohirrim ran round supported by Eomer, of course, effectively harrassing the enemy's RB's. Mid-Late game both players had a decent mix of units, but Blinky had a slightly better eco due to the excellent defense which he kept on the whole way through the game. Goblins kept trying to spam and get the all important mid-late game edge, but Blinky carried on shutting him out. A tactical Earthquake seemed to be the real deciding turning point, destroying all but a couple of PB's and the fort. Blinky used the untouchable time well, investing in Fire Arrows and alot of TG's/Rohirrim. Onlyluck tried to salvage a way back into the game, but the Balrog useage was woeful on an undefended base, allthough Aragorn did help out a little. Eventually the Army of the Dead supported by TG's and Aragorn won the game.
