"Against this sort of power, the heroic Terran force is no match, and every marine goes down in a blaze of glory (while every medic sort of splits apart in an icky way, eeeew)."

#1 Templar of doom[4104]
it was a nice report but it you seemed to depend on your pictures more then use text.
#2 MasterOfMordor[4116]
It seemed clear to me. Good BR, keep it up.
#3 MasterOfMordor[4117]
Oh, and a picture is worth a thousand words,Temp. Of Doom.

#4 Mind Twist[4119]
I'm kind of with temp of doom, you CAN overdo it on the pix. But, As BR.com's Official UnOfficial Rater, I declare you get a 10.
#5 MikeyMonty[4126]
The pics were good but I couldn't read half the writing the you edited onto the pics, especially the teal colored writing. Nice report though.
#6 Heartcutter[4130]
Good attempt on the terran's part. I've just got a few suggestions for playing a little better:

Things he did right:
Good tank/bunker/turret placement at ramp
Used ghosts
Used marines

1: Place your Rax next to your CC. It saves time on giving production commands to buildings.
2: Kill all enemy exps.
3: Build 1 wraith when your starport completes, before you build your com tower. That wraith does wonders vs drops.
4: Build a bunker/Turret/Tank in your peon line, as well as at your choke. With this kind of construction, you'll never need to place more turrets.
5: Expand to nearby expansions. Float CC's into place while having 2 scvs already en route to build a bunker and a turret. Also send 3 marines, a bat and a tank for defense.

And hang in there. Playing good terran takes time (And a whole LOT of losses). You're gonna have to pay your dues.

Great report. The pics and text on them were quite nice. One thing about u'r expanding tip: the natural is easier to defend, while expanding away means u have to split up u'r forces, and if u'r opponent finds u'r exp, its in pretty bad shape if he sends his whole army.

Some Notes:
Templar of Doom: I'm sorry you didn't like all the pictures, it seems the other people enjoyed them very well. (They'd better, I put in some time on this!) (:
I wasn't playing the game, so it's really hard for me to give strategy when observing, because I can't tell the readers why someone did something and for what reason. Read this report as compared to my other report. You'll see a big difference.
Johnny: He built an extra CC in his base for a Nuke Silo, don't ask me why. His original CC was lifted for the last half of the game because of Reavers, iirc.
One *Big important note: ~BluntGrande~ is just learning the Terrans. He could whoop me with his Zerg vs. my Terran probalbly, so don't call him bad, just learning, and if anyone's making an effort to learn Terrans, I aplaude them for that.
Heartcutter: btw, Someone said I play like you... Even though I've never met you before. I think I'll go read one of your reports and see if that's true. (: However, if we've got similar styles, you've gotta be a pretty cool dude.
With the positive feedback like this, I'll be sure to post another report within the next week or so. I hope you enjoy reading the reports as much as I do playing/writing them. Later,
-$gt.Zorn

You land that E-bay on another bad guy and you're a dead man :)
#10 Marauder_KB[4141]
ARG! I liked the post
#11 T.T.Boy[4143]
I loved the report, plain and simple.
#12 -=DarkHawke=-[4179]
Good report, a bit too many pics and some text was hard to read but, a excellent report
#13 DarKnight[4184]
once again, $gt.Zorn with his pix impress us. also, sometimes your text was blurry and sometimes it wasn't. what's up with that. and tell your friends to learn how to expand
#14 YourRoleModel[4199]
Great report... the reason you are getting grief over text is because you used colors that are kind of "in the middle" of the value scale. Use black, navyblue, or dark green on white, or use white on midnight blue... etc... also stick with a font like Arial, Times Roman, Futura, Helvetica or something that is more readable after you compress the hell out of it.

I'm not trying to flame you, I just don't like it when people say something is bad, but don't say why. Well, there it is. Nevertheless, it was a good job.





#15 Necrosausage![4207]
Really great report, very easy to understand and follow
#16 sydane[4213]
Nothin to say but 2 words:
Su**............i*........
no....j/k
Good Battle report!
#17 [FLS]prozerran[4241]
Heartcutter spoke the truth.

There was this game a few days ago Elminister was trying to do a turbo newbie my cliff with a shuttle and a probe setting up cannons. I just made a wraith when the shuttle was approaching, and it chased away the shuttle and the probe. then I proceed to return the turbo-newbie favor on his cliff and got my revenge. =)
#18 Templar of doom[4247]
I never said i hated your pics, it's just that i said your pics did most of the talking. You had 14 pics in your report it was a very good one but i am saying your text was barly use in the report but what it lacked your pics gave. The pics brought a understanding to the report as MasterOfMordor or (MOM) said a pic is worth a thousand words but it wasn't a typical BR. I never said i hated it or that you should changed it, just the facts.

On a side note i saw you changed colors to show who did the action, you can also use the command font color= in your text like

"The Slug Brigade wanted a final go at <font color=red>~BluntGrande~'s</font> base before they were through"
#19 anal-banana[4280]
Bravo!! Bravo!!
Wow, BR's are getting REAL nice these days.
Very well done BR.

#20 $gt.Zorn[4400]
Actually, if I was playing vs. a Chosen Protoss on Rivalry w/ Terrans, I'd have gone for a Twin Fact opening. The reason being: you get three things early.

1) Vultures, these units own all infantry and mineral lines.

2) Spider Mines, containment, containment, containment.

3) Siege Tanks, for the Dragoons/Reavers/Temps.

I had a conversation w/ someone on Battle.Net, as in the long, in depth two hour kinda conversation. And a good part of it was talking TvP. He said that Gols/Tanks/Vults/SVs owned a Prot. The other guy said Early Infantry Powering+Tanks and SVs owned a Prot. I was neutral.
I've gotta tell you now though, TvP is SOOO easy now. Just go double Fact and when you've got 3 Tanks, and the front of your choke mined, go for your Natural. Another bonus is you can patrol Vults really quickly. On Temple or Rivalry, get one going from every locations First Natural, to the Second Min-only one, get one from Starting point to 1st Natural, and get two/three patroling the middle. You'll also want one Wraith patroling each Island.
