CNC Zero Hour

Here's one of those Dozer-hunt starts that go wrong, for the hunter, leading to a hard game for both players.

• Build a 2nd supply instead of a 3rd Chinook, unless you actually intend on using a drop early on. Because collecting from three different supplies, one with each Chinook, even if it is for scouting purposes, it isn't worth your time(in this case time=money as well). I was very disappointed to see how you didn't save your Chinooks when they came under fire, more than once.
• Nice to see you going for your own oil early on, but you could also send a Ranger to take his, as he was going no-eco, you could have taken it as well.
• You did well to spam and take map control like you did.

• For more successful drops in general, it helps to drop your MD's as logistically as you can. For instance, drop them at as great a distance as you can from his WF, so you may laser lock his dozer, then the Humvee he sense around, without the worry of him killing your MD before it may turn on the Vee. There are many factors that go into a good drop, but as a rule of thumb, you should never drop MD's in a vulnerable position(near the edge, or between buildings) so to speak.
• Also, at the same time you are dropping, you should be thinking about how you can immediately make a follow-up attack, in order to drop his morale, and focus, allowing you to expand your advantage around the map. In the case of this game, you could see what he had on hand when you dropped his base, and you had two(2) Humvees back at base, with MD's in them, which you could have easily driven to his base, to destroy his empty Humvees, then prevent him from making MD's by leaving one by the barracks. As a follow-up to this, set your WF rally point to his WF, so your Vees will go there, and send a Dozer up to his base, to build a Barrack for spamming MD's/Rangers(if he manages to thwart your first two vees due to your, possibly, poor micro). By taking more time to follow up, you allowed him to distract you, and increase the length of the game in his favor.
