Red Alert 3

Wilko did this BO to me today. I got completely owned. I saw him expanding quickly to the third node and I thought I would be able to get in some good harassment before he got units out. Wrong.

Yeah, i started to build walls in 1.00 (built walls and a anti-inf-turret back then) since there was a german player who loved to use engi-IFVs^^
Walls were cheap on cabana
Just 250$ and he couldn't come into my base on land

I made a short description about my BO and what my original thoughts were:

wait, what happened to iaguz?

How many players are left ? I have found no official list of the players. Please provide the link if there is such a list.

How will the announcement of the end of the beta on the 25th September affect the KotH tournament ? Is there time for all to play their games and for the finals to be played ? Or will the tournament be cut short ?

Nice commentary and GG!!

I only have one minor complaint/suggestion. Wilko, why did you not send your MCV into the Crusher Crane, you would have made some extra money?

I already tried that , but it gives the same amount of money, so selling it is faster ^^

This isn't true actually, if you cash bounty your MCV, when you unpack it you get 1/4 of its price (so 1250 credits), and then when you put it into the crane, you get 3/4 of the price back (so 3750 credits) totalling at 5k, whereas just selling with cash bounty only gives 3/4 of the money back (1/4 for bounty and 1/2 for selling).

I know that there is something to be said for having the money straight away, but I just wanted to point out that Croutonman is in fact correct and you can make a little bit more with the crusher crane (1250 in fact)

Yeah, but this is bug-using
Cash Bounty ur MCV and then unpack it is considered as bug-use

I abuse lame things but i don't abuse bugs

gg and nice commentary, AGM used this BO against me a few days ago..i watched the replay i was like wtf!? but it works like a charm..good game guys

btw what happened to iaguz?

Also, selling the MCV allows you to get an engineer into the Derrick to get more money, possibly worth more the then the 1250 extra, although personally I'd sell it as quick as possible to get the extra cash for the 3rd ref as quick as possible, so you don't stall unit production too much.

Note that this build is incredibly brittle against fast Allied air builds, especially because 3 vindicators can knock out a crane in one run, and then you're basically screwed if you've sold off your MCV as well.
