"The zealots spot the pimp squad about two-thirds of the way to the Terran Main, and like the zealous warriors that they are, the zealots run like heck."

-A Holy War-




So here it is, my first Battlereport EVER. No pictures, no fancy HTML, perhaps next time. Its hard to play a decent game and take screenshots at the same time, so pls be patient with me.

I skipped through the usual channels I am visiting, to find myself a decent 1v1, when suddenly I was invited to join a game by [666]NewB .

So the match-up is:

DerPastor vs [666]NewB











(Authors Note: DerPastor: German for ThePreacher)

Willing to defend the Rulership of the Heaven against Satans evil Forces, I chose the noble and faithful Terran Army, while my Opponent waited to the last second to select the blasphemic Protoss Rogues.

The battlefield was chosen to be The Lost Temple. Obviously the Rogues wanted to found a new Religion to hail to an acient god on this so called 'Temple'.
My Warriors of Faith just couldnt have that.

My CommandCathredral was contructed at 6, while my opponent turned out to have warped in at 3.

I started out constructing SCV's to construct a depot at my choke with the 7th.
I sent him on the mission to seek the grail (the opponents position) after that and he was on his way.
My 9th SCV constructed a barracks at the choke and my 10th got the order to built a refinnery at the nearby gas-geyser.
After it was finished I sent 2 other SCV's to help him gather gas, my 14th to build a factory. Meanwhile I had ordered the SCV that constructed the barracks to build a depot to complete my wall-in.

It was about then, when my Scout reported that the enemy had been found. The sight of 2 Warpgates and a Cybernetics Core came to my screen, but vanished soon after, when my brave Worker was blown to pieces by satanistic Dragoons, about 3 in number.
I still pray for your soul, Deon, for I dont know what gros rituals the Blasphemists have done with your body.

I ordered up a second factory and a starport, with a control tower add-on.
As soon as I got a dropship I flew 2 tanks to the cliff just above 3 and placed them, so they could fire at [666]NewB's Assimilator. At this time I didnt want him to get that much of Gas, because I was in true fear of a satanistic swarm of Carriers coming all over me. Praying to God, asking him, wether my opponent had taken his natural or not, I sat in my CommandCathedral. With a -pling- (*insert com-sat sound here*), my Lord enlightened me. What I saw, I didnt like. He had indeed taken his natural, and slowly I was falling behind in Ressources. So I ordered one of my SCV's to construct another CommandCathedral at my natural securing it with a turret, a bunker, about 3 tanks, and some spider mines.
Additionaly I sent 2 dropships with 3 tanks, 3 marines and an SCV to his cliff to stop this expansion.
It was about half way there, when he attacked. He dropped his forces of evil in my main, them consisting of 3 dark templar and 1 high templar.
Obviously these nihilistic Warriors were enlightened by there so-called "god", because the high templar laid waste to some of my SCV's with a storm, that can only be described as blasphemistic Magic. Then a tank at my main and some well-placed spider mines near the drop spot sent them to hell.
My Cliffdrop had been a success, however, but my Tank at the cliff above 3 was destroyed by this point, so he once again had free access to a geyser.

Feeling kind of cocky about this situation, I expanded to the bottom left island.
But this selfishness was punished immediately, when about 25 dragoons rolled into my natural, burning it to ruin. I sighed. The Lord punishes small sins immediately.

Fortunately he hadn't been able to stop my cliff drop yet. So he wasnt outressourcing me now.
But I still was getting contained by his forces, who could be strong enough to storm my choke any moment now. I once again needed the help of the Lord.
And once again I prayed.
And after minutes and minutes that passed, the Lord hear my prayer.
So I got my priest ready, and striked upon his main with the fist of god
"Nuclear Launch detected"
I took down the shields of his nexus, with an "Eliminate-Main-Prayer", short EMP, and he lost his only Nexus.

My Advisor called me.
"Brother, the opponent is hailing us"
"On screen"
I saw the message appear
"Argh, this sucks I had you"
"I will pray for your soul"
"wtf? you bitch"
"...and though I walk through the valley of death, I will never fear the evil protoss.."

The rest was just a clean-up. I nuked the unholy temple, that was surrounded by his remaining forces and rolled in with my tanks and brave Warriors of Faith.

The good had once again triumphed over the evil.

Pls have mercy with me on your comments, for this is my first Battlereport ever.
I will add pictures/HTML in the next.
