Ok so anyways yesterday I've been challenged by 2 protoss for a toss/terr game and won both. Here are the BRs, they aren't too detailed cuz I couldn't remember everything in the heat of battle.

GAME 1: me vs Rabid_Korean

VITAL INFORMATION:
Map:Lost Temple
GoodGuy:Ghost~lizard(terran) 12 o'clock
AlienScum:Rabid_Korean(protoss) 9 o'clock


BATTLE COMMENCES:

As the game started I saw that I got a 12 o'clock start and got pissed, looks like there's no silo/comsat for my exp:( Well so I start out with my typical ani-toss build, 2 rax, refinery, fac,acad,fac and of course I throw in and e bay for those nasty DTs. I scout with my 8th peon and see what he's up to, I see him going 2 gates and getting gas early. I can smell DTs here! I put up an e bay and get myself a comsat, I of course hotkey it for easy in battle access. I comsat him and see that he got a robo fac,citadel and temp archives with support bay warping in, he got about 4 cannons at his choke for defense. I of course previously layed mines at his gimme and at every expansion spot as well, I also had vultures patrolling the whole map.

SOME GUESTS DROP IN:

Well I see a shuttle approaching, he drops off a reaver and 2 DTs. By that time I got 2 facs and 3 tanx, I had to move one so it could reach the reaver but, with little struggle I kill his drop. I lost 4 peons, turret and 2 supply depots, no biggie.

LETS PLAY LEAPFROG BUNKERS:

I know its time to counter and kill the evil alien. I start my push while expanding to my gimme, I didn't feel safe expanding anywhere else since those DTs were roaming the map. I go to his gimme and see that he has expanded there, I bring along an scv and make a bunker but right before it finishes my scv gets killed by a DT, I comsat and take the little guy out. I bring along 2 more scvs and 3 more tanx. I make 2 bunkers and 2 turrets. He drops a reaver which gets smoked by siege tank's powerful shock cannons. back at home I got LOTS of tanx, I bring 8 more to join my ranks, his gimme goes down fast, templars can't get even close to to storm my tanx. After he sees there's no way he can win he conceides congratulating me on a good game.

GAME 2: me vs Pink_Panther aka Dirk_Diggler

VITAL INFORMATION:
Map:Lost Temple
GoodGuy:ghost~lizard(terran) 9 o'clock
AlienScum:Pink_Panther(protoss) 12 o'clock

BATTLE COMMENCES:

Well in the room before the game he picked protoss as soon as I chose the versitile terran(I'm not really sure they are that versitile but sure are fun to play with). I start with my usual, 2 rax, ref, fac, acad, fac anti-toss build. Souting reveals that he's going 2 gate and looks with gas and core,DTs again, I just dont' get it why are all protoss in love with DTs. My deon peon gets smoked while trying to run back to base, well that alien scum will play for the life of innocent Billy!

MINES:

So I get 2 facs up and running, research vulture spee/mines and mine near hjs base and near my bae, no DTs today:) Me being a quick kinda guy I try to end the game fast, I send some marines/medics but DTs are roaming around so I have to retreat since my comsat was out of energy. As my comsat hits 50 I send them again, I meet with a friendly DT along the way and eliminate it with my 1 armor upgraded marine/bats. I walk up to his choke and see that he got cannns and goons guarding, I kept telling my troops to hold position but marines just kept running into cannons, stupid kamikazes. I bring an scv and start a construction of bunker/turret thats when about 10 goons hit it and I'm forced to run back home.

NO EXPANSION FOR YOU MR.PROTOSS:

Well taking a little brake I expand, I put some M&Ms to guard my exp and hand out the free Corona Extra, later it hurts me since they get drunk and screw up their aiming. I comsat his gimme and see that he got an expansion going there, I promptly drop 2 tanx and clean out that spot.

NOOOOOO MY EXP:

Thats when he attacks with mucho goons/zealots with stimmed rines,mines and tanx I manage to hold him off losing all my scvs but my CC is alive and well. I land it back and transfer some scvs from my main. I also make another CC at home and attempt to expand to the 6 spot but his goons find me and I'm forced to lift off. I fly it to the island in the upper left, it remains undisturbed throughtout the game.

DENY THE EXP GAME:

Well with my great recon courtesy of mines and vultures I can see and stop all his exp attempts dead. He tries to take the 3 spot but a vulture takes out his probe and starts blasting the nexus, he's forced to cancel.

THE NUCLEAR AGE:

Back home I make a sci facility and covert ops, time for my favorite part, NUKES! I make a silo at both of my expansions. Thats when I see him trying to take the 6 o'clock's gimme, I drop 2 tanx and take out all his peons. He tries to get the 6 o'clock spot but a dropship full of M&Ms stops that. He drops goons and kills my tanx at both of his gimmes, I respond by nuking both exps and taking them out.

I'm LEFT WITH 1 EXP:

He comes in with a large force of zealots/goons/DTs and kills my gimme but not before I launch the last nuke from that silo that damages his 3 o'clock nexus and takes out the probes. Now with some tricky micro I move my tanx back forcing zealots to chase them, they walk right into the mine field, his nice force has now been cut to 2 measily zealots, they get a nice injection of hot led fresh from marine's gauss rifles.

THE FINAL PUSH:

Thats when I start the final push to his last expansion, the 3 o'clock one. I bring 6 tanx and a dropship of marine/ghosts. I try to nuke but he got an observer there and my ghost gets smoked. He tries to hold it using goons/dts but my force is to much for him and I break through, I drop a successful nuke and lockdown a shuttle with a temp. At that point he tells me I won, 12 or so tanx roll into his main and start blasting it to hell, he conceides with a GG. The game was really intense and lasted form almost an hour, it was like 59:56 I think.

LESSONS LEARNED:
-Terran are fun!
-Nukes ROCK!
-DTs are annoying when they are everywhere.
-Mass tanx RAPE goons.
-Starving a toss is hard.
-I rock!

NOTABLE QUOTES:

-"your terran is a lot better then last time"-rabid korean after I defeat his mighty protoss
-"your terran is good"-Pink_Panther after my terran prevail over his toss.

WELL HOPE YA ENJOY READIN' EM AS MUCH AS I ENJOYED PLAYING THOSE GAMES, AND I WANT A GOLD BENGALAASS DAMNIT. Btw I'll send screenshots later, I have like 5 from the korean game of his base being destroyed and 1 from Panther game.
