It's the story, of my first ladder, where I chose the very friendly terrans. It's the story, of a man named Pebbler, who picked the big mad mean raging protoss. It's the story, of why i suck, it is called the bloody bunch, the bloody bunch, thats the wayyyy, it became the Bloody Bunch!
Cool song, isn't it? Hehe. Well, heres what happened.

Vital Info
Map: Lost Temple
Me: The lowly terrans, middle left.
Pebbler: Randomed Protoss, bottom middle.

I started off hoping that Pebbler was zerg, because I was almost done prefecting my Tank Push. I started off with a semi-wallin to protect my peon line, and I sent an SCV scouting. He discovered a nosy, robotic probe gliding its metal, shiny butt up my ramp. It chased him back to my base, where i had almost finished a rax, and a depot was already done. That evil probe then set up an offensive refiney/extractor/assimilator trick, and ran. I made a bunker by my rax and popped out a marine, eventually making 4 and killed the Assimilator. He told me he didn't cancel because he wanted to delay gas, because he had trouble stopping the tank push. What a coinky-dink.

I sent my scv and found a few zealots blocking the ramp, and my might scv was killed. I mourned for a few seconds and started collecting gas, eventually getting , I think 10 marines, 2 bats and a medic. I ran to his natural with that force, with an scv to begin a offensive bunker. I ran in and killed about 4 goons, 2 zealots, and a warping pylon at his natural. I set up a turret and 2 bunkers, while back at home getting tanks and a dropship. I also ran a scv up to the 12 oclock position and made a cc and rax. I had about 3 tanks with siege ability, and loaded 2 up. They started floating to my forward position when i hear "Ba-bam!" Reavers! One of the fat snail bastards, as i unloaded my marines, cursing. If i got tanks over 5 seconds earlier...that mighta won me the game.

I used feed the reaver and killed it, but he just brought more and destroyed my forward position. I had yet to start making scv's at my expansion, another error. I made a sci-facility and pondered my next move, when it came to me: Another push! But not at the natural. Y'know that little spot on the bottom start position that you can't see unless you build there? I dropped 2 tanks, 7 marines, an scv, and a ghost (i had grabbed a Covert ops). I added on a nuke silo at my expansion and started a nuke.

I then loaded up my bunkers and sieged my tanks. A few goons ran over to investigate, and instantly died to my tanks Shock Cannons and my bunkered Gauss Rifles. I killed a forge, a few cannons, and a shitload of goons, when, my favorite SC sound blared through my speakers at me: "NUCLEAR MISSLE READY!" Bum bum bum. I cloaked and nuked his nexus, cannons, and gateways. This is when the push went sour. In ran about 8-10 zealots, and a few corairs. Corsairs? Oshit. He dwebbed my bunkers and tanks, and killed them. Now i knew what happened to his other goons. Up my choke ran 12-24 goons, with zealot and Corsair support.

By now, I had expanded to the upper left island, but he then dropped 2 goons and i lifted. In ran 6 sairs, and there went my nuke silo and exp. After countless exp attempts, at the 3 and 12 start locations AND their naturals, I went to the mineral only spot along the 12 spot. Now I was screwed. More goons, reavers,zealots, and sairs rushed in, D-webbing my tanks and bunkers and killing my few vessels and wraiths. Now I played hide the depot, and told him where my exp. In ran a bunch of goons and, even though my mighty scv's were brave, they were killed. I gave him a GG and left, cursing.

Game: Pebbler
Reason: I suck, there is a slight imbalance.
