-SeX`iie vs -AppLE^ The two German brothers fighting it out in a great China Tank vs USA Air Force.
-SeX`iie
Very nicely played from you. You kept the pressure on early game to stop the early Humvees completely controlling the game by fighting and holding the middle. Tank vs any USA is a complete pain and Air Force just makes it worse with the Carpet Bomb General Promotion, which twice ruined your armies.
You managed to keep -Apple^ pressured and forced into his own base to play your game rather than his. You built your Propaganda Centre at an early stage, which is a great move if you have the time and money, which gave you early ECM tanks vs -Apple^'s pesky Humvees without the Search and Destroy tactic. Your Emperor tanks came abit to late, imo they're increase your chance vs Search and Destroy Humvees by alot.
Your use of Migs was abit poor. They're really expensive for Tank and should be used for perfect timing rather than going on suicide missions.
I LOVED watching your flanking Dragon Tanks It is something very rarely seen but it is also VERY effective! Not only was -Apple^ trying to fight your main Army he had to stop the constant flanking of Dragon Tanks. Which twice killed his Strategy Centre and other buildings.
Nicely played by you in such a hard match up. 7.5/10 for your play.
-AppLE^
When the loading screen came up I bet your brother heard you cheering for joy as you got USA Air Force lol.
Your early garrison in the middle slowed -SeX`iie down completely from getting to your base, with any ease as you also made Fire Bases on each flank - which nearly brings tears to any China player's eyes. Not being able to get into the USA base and pressure before they can get to many Humvees.
The fight for the middle was never ending and lasted right until the end. You kept your cool when you saw that -SeX`iie had ECM Tanks before you had Search and Destroy. You handled this very well with some excellent micro. You forced -SeX`iie to constantly focus on the middle so why didn't you take this opportunity to flank 1 or 2 Humvees to pressure his supplies?!!
All game you had to play his game which is a very bad thing for a USA. Luckily for you that you had the General Promotions to fall back on and used them perfectly. Not once but TWICE you crippled -SeX`iie's armys and forced him to scramble and lose focus on controlling his army.
At one point you floated up to $10k!!!! Why would you do this to yourself? This was painful to watch especially when -SeX`iie had control of the game.
Your micro all game was good but you had to play his game rather than yours.
Nice micro and general promotions use by you but that's about it. 5.5/10 For you.
Spoiler
Although the match up was completely in your favour -SeX`iie forced you to play his game rather than him playing yours. Ultimately this lead to your defeat
Nice entertaining game. Definite WUB from me

nice game unexpected how this ended and totally unnecessary in the situation the losing player was in but ok made it nice to watch aswell. I think air is way harder to play vs tank than for example usav or any other usa since ecm gatling chaingun just ra pe pretty much anything air has. which was shown nicely in the WS final by excal vs sizes air. When u use 1 ecm to disable the vee and the other to deflect missiles its almost impossible to own the gatgroups
Never underestimate tomahawks. They rape ECM's. And the air can keep the tank very busy with a burton or some flanking humvees or even a few stealth comanches.
