Playing some 2v2 with randoms tonight.
I wanted to have some fun so i went to clear a base right next to the enemy base to build 3 barracks and rpg spam him.
I clear it out, and shortly after he comes along and see's me waiting for the 30 second timer to end. I quickly retreat since i only had a small force there to take only the rebels out.
I get a message mid-game saying "thanks for the free base! That was an easy expansion.
I turn my 8 rpg marines around and rpg it as it is completing.
Why on earth would he tell me he just expanded there? I would have checked soon enough, but still. I normally wouldnt read a msg mid game, but i could tell he was a gentleman by the way the game was playing out anyway.
Next game, my partner bails on my at the start, both openents are fairly good. Or atleast can follow good build orders. One canister booms, and the other banshee booster booms. I grabbed 2 reacter hooks, and made a mix of my own canister tanks, wolvs and gremlins. I push back the canister rush, Taking out 6 tanks, and only losing 2 of my own.
Since i was making wolves aswell he was double pumping tanks so i couldnt counter just yet. He pushes again, and again i stop it dead in its tracks, loosing only 2 tanks this time, to his 6. Then full pop banshee's show up. I take out all of the banshees with a mix of wolves and marines. but lose my first base in the meantime.
So i quit making men to let the game end and let them get their points.
After the game i get a message calling me a fine gentleman, and saying how bad he owned me... 2v1, and the game was very close. And they have the audacity to say they owned me? are people really stupid? lol
Anyway, thats my 2 funny stories for the night. Anyone else have any to share?
