WOW wth hell is wrong, it seems like u have a problem with us.
Hardly. I just didn't like the level of play presented in this replay, I like other replays hosted here and in replay vault better. Not that I would have done much better after my year and a half long hiatus. But then again I don't go posting my replays do I? And calling me a "newbie with big thoughts about yourself"(lol @ phrasing) is a case of pot calling kettle black. Someone doesn't like your replay and you're sure it's personal. Get over yourself, you don't cast that long of a shadow in this community.
blah blah blah about cruisers being protected by T3 shields even though his destroyers were what I was worried about... and more hilarity as you say they are comparable to Bulwarks... and more silliness about me spamming T2 shields (go count them again plz)
Once again, mobile shields are SLOWER THAN NAVY. What you are talking about only works great when you don't have to constantly run away. Once again, I have to kite UEF. And the Seraphim counter to torp bombers in the water is floaty flak, not expensive T3 shields that can only cover a few stationary ships at one time. I guess you also did not look at the economy at all because you seem to think I have all this crazy excess energy.
Throughout this all you seem to not realize my plan very early on was to WIN WITH A YTHOTHA. Not try and win a naval battle against two people. Not try and win an air battle against two people. On the other hand, you also don't seem to realize that as long they are spamming attack aircraft, I can be spamming ASFs. Which WILL allow me to win the air.

Lol he clearly could. He had 2 commanders on his island, they can just go skinny dipping in the water and wait for the ythotha to surface, come out and overcharge it in the back. Unlike GC and ML, ythotha only have 70 degree firing arc, so it's much easier to put it in double bind. Either turn forward and attack base and get overcharged in the back by 2 commanders, or turn back to water and not attack base while getting pounded by gunships. Alternatively he could have used T2 T3 PDs. It was phenom's mistake to let Ythotha get that vet though.
LOL more theory craft. Phena's base was screwed. I agree he should have killed his engineers, but there was nothing he could have done to stop the complete annihilation of his base. I will say it one more time: I HAD ENOUGH AIR TO KILL A FEW STINKING GUNSHIPS. Two coms overcharging the Ythotha??? That's your idea to prevent it from raping Pronk's base? You seem to not realize that his base is still screwed with that strategy. l2p.
I think you're just upset because my opponents didn't do inane, desperado things like that. I'm glad you would have gone down in a big blaze of glory, but they chose not to.

On maps with reclaim, early on power is the cruical resource. A relatively fast sortie of 3 bombers can work wonders at stalling people. Most bombers have 2 second reload time so if you click a target that's in position they can bomb without turning every 2 seconds, you can squeeze a lot more DPS from bombers.
If you knew anything about this map you would have mentioned by now that you can bomb the reclaim to deny it from your opponent... Yes I already mentioned double bombing, thanks for repeating what I said.
You've been gone for a year and a half and now you're qualified to comment on Forged Alliance games? And BTW IC is one of the most active 1v1 players in the game right now.
Phena posted the replay because it was an entertaining game, something you don't see a lot of anymore in FA. I'm not sure why some douche cock who calls himself Spura chose to write his very first replay review about our game, which was a friendly custom, and take such a scathing tone when he himself is nothing more than a theory crafter. His attempt to be one of the cool trolls fails.
