A really great game, no doubt why hes the senior strat mod. Great micro involved really, he took my fortress and i came back to win. For isengard players, take note of how i defend and attack late game Enjoy. Also note that this replay isnt to brag, its a must watch for Isen players .

This was a very nice game indeed. Not my best display, with a pretty closed minded strategy, but it really is tough for Goblins to get a foothold on a match when they cannot fast creep or really stop your opponent from creeping. I'll find a way though
GG. I wish goblins won tho, Isengaard is the only faction I have yet to beat, and they have won in all replays I've seen. Can someone post a replay were Isegaard does not win?
First off, this a great game for anyone to watch. It shows how to use both factions effectively in this patch. This is a reccomended watch for anyone who wants to learn these factions this patch. Both Bosn and Negotiate used some very good micro, and utilized much fo tehir faction's total strength. Don't be worried about the filesize. It is around 30 mintues maximum, and you won't regret using it on this game.
And now, onto the review:

GR|Bosn vs Negotiate
On Fords of Isen II
Game Version: 1.05
Game Summary
[i]Something dark was brewing near the crossing of the river Isen. Saruman paced around Orthanc, waiting for his dispatched forces to return back to his command. Little did he know, that Goblins had ambushed, and were taking tolls on the fighting Uruk-Hai. But Lurtz was not afraid of these meager runts of the caves. He knew his troops could push them back, eventually....
Good scouting Stances used well Good mixed forces Used Infantry vs Resource Buildings, and cavalry/siege (cave trolls) vs everything else Good harassment
Player Summary: A nicely played game here. You made good use of early Cave Bats to scout around his base to see what Negotiate was going to build. You had a good mix of Warriors, Arcehrs, cave trolls and Spider Riders vs his mixed army. Stances were used well, adn your harassment was good. Especially with how you went around attacking the enemy buildings with proper units. You even managed to get Isengard's fortress down. Unfortunately, Isengard just eventually overwhelmed you with a mix of upgraded wargs, Wildmen of Dunland summon, and Lurtz and his uruk entourage. Godo job however.
Pikes for early creeping of warg lairs Stances used well Fast Lurtz Good scouting with Palantir Good harassment Upgrades
Player Summary: Very nice job here. Nothing bad to comment on. You made great use of early pikemen to creep the map of the wargs, and take the necessary cash to get out a fast Lurtz. Fast upgrades came soon after, adn then it really turned the match into your favor, howver not until you had lost your fort. You used the Palantir well to make appropriate choices as to what to build to face his Goblins and Archers. Stances were used well, and your harassment was good through the game. Great job.
