So someone who is ranked #1 in classic 2v2 as Wehr and #8 in classic 2v2 AT as Wehr doesn't pay attention to capping order nor prioritize resources. That's just an amazing statement to me.

Do you know Kodachrome?

yup smile.gif.. thats me.. what matters most to me early is the fighting itself and all your focus should be on that. Like i said.. simplify it for yourself. If you win the actual fighting, map control will come automatically.

that being said, you should however protect your cutoffs and go for the opponent if possible.

ye ive seen him around but i dont know him personally

EDIT :: on semois, there are good points right next to the base so the cap order 'crisis' doesn't hurt much

I think you misunderstood. I was not asking for advice on how to play. Merely remarking on the paradox of a top ranked player not grasping basic concepts like capping priority. One that is, shall we say, incredulous.

There was no intense micro going on at the time that you made your selections. The lust for fuel is hard-wired into all expert axis players, there is no conscious decision process involved in the cases presented. I have to wonder if the 14 players who wub'd this bothered to watch the replay in detail. Or for that matter, whomever determined that this should be the replay of the week.

very well.. read my first post. maybe it helps a bit.

One more thing. whilst watching a replay, everyone feels there is no micro going on. Ingame its a lot different, ask anyone

You know, for someone who hasn't played this game in years, it was good to see some skilled players do some of the same things I've done (in reference to my battle vs normal AI) (i.e. having many units at your primary HQ to reinforce, or heal, retreating often to save units from being completely destroyed, and upgrading asap).

I really should start going against people again. Not that I enjoyed being dominated, but, losing in theory helps one learn so the wins follow.

Also, Smaug, good point about combat allowing field control to come secondary. I usually just go for the stuff I know I can get and I end up losing many battles, even though I control 90% of the map. I don't quite understand it.
