"Before the BR comment"

Because of the green background I use in this BR the colors may bea bit off. I have to use dark red instead of brown and that teal color may be slightly off. Just accept it...ok?

I don't use many pictures (compared to WilliamWC3 and others) but the ones I use are selected with care so let them load please. Also I have only tested this HTML in Internet Explorer 5. If you are using something different it might look weird. Solve it by using IE damnit.

Map: The Lost Temple

Let the games begin

Inca builds a Supply Depot at his ramp with his 7:th SCV and then a Barracks with the same SCV. He then completes the wallin with another Depot and gets early gas.

Horny builds a Spawning Pool at 9 control and then expands to his natural. What's interresting is that he doesn't use the extra gas right away. He defends the expansion with some lings and a Sunken Colony. Horny scouts with a probe but it can't get through Inca's wallin and can't give him the valuable information he needs to counter whatever the terran commander is up to.

I take a look at Inca's base now and what I see is a Factory with a Machine Shop building and a Starport being built. Hm.. I think for a moment and try to figure out what he's up to. Well not really beause anyone can see that he's going for a quick drop. Maybe except from Yeti, the new star of BR.com but almost anyone. I watch as the Machine Shop starts upgrading Siege Mode and  a Control Tower is added.

Horny has started a Lair upgrade on his expansion and my slow brain thinks "he's hiding it from comsat" which makes no sence at all. So I check his main and se a complete Lair there aswell. My braincells now come to work and I realize he's going to make his own nasty little drop.

As the Lair at Horny's exp finnishes Inca loads up a Tank, some marines and a SCV into a newly constructed dropship. Well this will be interresting. The Dropship pilot heads south towards the Zerg infestation and unloads it's lethal cargo on the 6 o'clock cliff. The Tank siege up and begins laying waste on the innocent Drones and Zerglings on the low ground. Horny runs his Drones away in time though and starts a new hatchery at the 9 o'clock starting position.

Things are not looking good for the Zerg now having wasted 300 minerals for that Hatchery and then another 150/100 for the Lair. The lack of rescourses is even worse though. The morphing Hatchery at 9 is discovered by a scouthing Wraith but those tin cans don't have big Air to Ground weapons. Horny now loads up his two Overlord drop and heads north, right by his attacked Hatchery. If he can't hurt the terrans income fast he's in trouble.

Inca has a nice 3 turret defence arround his Command Center with a bunker nearby but some damage can be done I realize.

The Overlords now enter the terran main and one dies a painful death before it is able to unload and the other joins its comrade soon after. 

Two Lurkers made it though and burrows next to the mineral line. The CC starts taking hits and so does the Bunker and some SCVs die to the subterranean spikes.  The Bunker is being repaired by 5 SCVs however and the Marines inside just barely reaches the closest Lurker. A brave SCV attacks the other Lurker until some reinforcements arrive to end the threat.

During this attack Horny has been active. The 9 o'clock expansion is now operational and a Hatchery has just finnished at 3. In his main I see a Spire morphing. Inca is not inactive either and has a CC floating to his natural. The choke is now guarded by some m&m and a Science Vessel. With these new additions the expansion league is quite even with 3 for Horny and 2 for Inca (including the mains since there are still minerals left in them.)

Horny now starts massing Mutalisks and prepares another drop of Lurkers. Inca's choice of army is now clearly m&m with SV support. Now Horny can't wait anymore and starts his offensive on Inca's main. A pack of Mutalisks fly in first to get rid of a Turret and to begin hammering on the Tank and Bunker defence. After them comes three Overlords with Lurkers and Hydralisks. Now the worst nightmare of the Zerg Swarm begins...Irradiate fest. Yes, the terran version of Psi-Storm are cast on the Mutalisks which are bunched up with an "Irradiate us" sign on the leaders head. The attack fails miserably as more m&m arrive to finnish of the Lurkers with the aid of the SVs detection.

Once again Hydra uses the camouflage of the attack to expand, this time to the top left island. Inca were not too badly hurt by the attack however and floats another CC to the 3 o'clock mineral only. He guards it with a shitload of m&m with SV support. At this time Inca has been massing his army all the game and has not attacked once except from the cliff drop. The attacks on his main has been taken care of without heavy losses. He has also been upgrading like a whore from two Engineering Bays and has 3/1 marines. He launches an attack on Hornys main. When the army reaches the choke he finds himself under attack by Guardians, Mutalisks and Lurkers at his main. He is a clever monkey though (not literally Inca :) and does not turn back to defend. Instead he stims up and storms into the enemy base. The base is as good as undefended and is swiftly destroyed.

Back to that attack on the terran main. It ends with terran on top and a crapload of red blood on the ground and the surrounding cliffs... go irradiate!

We all have a good laugh now as Inca takes a support SV and flies it north from the ex Zerg main right into a pack of Scourge. He doesn't care too much though since he is in command now and the odds are bad for Horny. The minimap turns brown once again as Inca sends his entire m&m army towards Hornys 9 o'clock expansion. The expansion is well defended though by a pack of Lurkers and Sunkens and the marines are slaughtered. Ouch.

Another funny moment comes as five medics are left alive and a control group of Zerglings try to end their sexy lives, but the medics heal eachother and the Zerglings leave in frustration =).

Now Inca makes a nice comment. "forgot rine range". Haha. Well no-one is perfect. And since he now has 3/3 upgrades those marines kick ass anyway. Some fresh Marines from Inca now destroys the 9 expansion and also the 3 o'clock expansion. "Some" means "Shitload" in this context though. This leaves Horny with only the top left island. He does not give up though and sends ANOTHER drop to the terran main, this must be the fourth on the exact same spot. This drop contains Lurkers and Drones. Although the Drones kicked ass and fought bravely there is not much Horny can do but offer a GG and so he does.

Winner: Incandesance

After game conversation

Horny: Any tips of how to beat a terran like u

Inca: Hm

Inca: Don't expand so quick

Horny: Lots of infantry..

Inca: Ultralisks

The next game Horny might just try that.

Lessons Learned

-Don't drop the same spot four times (when the first three failed badly)

-Upgrades own. (We didn't learn that here but it's good to know =)

-It's a pain in the ass to come up with a good title to a battlereport.

-Don't use a green background in battlereports. It's ugly.

Ok I feel like putting in a quote here..from another game I played that night. I was lagging in the chatroom and Dialtone_ had to be funny about it:

I almost pissed my pants damnit =).

Comment

Thanks to the players for letting me BR this. (Actually I never asked but they didn't tell me not to do it hehe) Please comment and let me know what I did good and not so good so I can improve it to the next time.
