4v4 (Courtesy of me) It's an interesting game, sorta... Guy I faced minidumped. I think it's even money weather it would made that much of a difference if he stayed. My side had someone who we suspected to be a smurf, but turned out to be a newbie, happens often. So the newbie didn't lsiten at first, and got rolled like a fine cigar. Special thanks to Dark Vortex for great attitude towards the new guy, and picking up the slack on his side. Game ends with one side leaving due to some time constraints, but once again it's even money as to how it would play out. Especially since our side is heavy econ at that point.
OLD Entrenchment 1.03:
4v4 (Courtesy of Qu4r) Have not watched yet. Make comment later.
2v3 (From Top Vasari) Very nice game, the side with only 2 players wins.
4v5 (Courtesy of Me) Strange game. I won on my side barely by killing the enemy Marza which was at lvl 5. My marza was low like lvl 3 only because it was away from my fleet most of the game doing demolitions. I also took a beating to my income when my Homewolrd got a bit of razed Luckily I still had good income cause of multiple roids+neutrals. Elsewhere there were so fights going on, my team was winning each of the fights thou, or at very least holding the line.
2v2 (Courtesy of Proliteri) Classic 2v2 with the winning team winning on both fronts. Multiple Capships used.
OLD Entrenchment 1.02:
4v4 (courtesy of JJ) JJ fights multiple players with heavy feeding going on all over the place. Nice attempt at use of culture.
3v4 (courtesy of Brothers in Arms [_] ): Interesting i guess is only way to describe this.
3v3 (Courtesy of mysterious person): Lots of early action. No econ beyond neutrals.
5v5 (Brothers in Arms): Fantastic map, everyone has fun, even the losing side!
3v3 (Brotehrs in Arms): Good rush, followed by nice rebuilding. Ending with a ncie starbase defense vs multiple fleets.
4v4 mixed : Mixed teams, sort of. The underdog team pulls an upset in this masterpiece of Sins art. Watch an evil rush unfold on an unsuspecting victim who goes 2 civic labs first. Also tactical prowess likes of which have not yet been seen by your truely. Taking my opponent apart in a systamtic and strategic matter, piece by piece.
5v5 mixed : Faced with certain doom due to map positioning, can Astax pull off a magic trick to stay alive? Also so horrible horrible play by his teamates This game was really a 3v5. One guy surrenders after he lost 1 planet. Another guy has nagative income on 7 planets, and net income of 2.7 by late game (so much for mixing noobs and vets). I didn't even notice till i watched repaly Comes with an extra special LOL moment at the end.
4v4 Economy on front : In MP you must be bold, and do as much as you think you can get away with! If you thinky ou can get away with doing economy on front, then do it! Game is upsidedown, and assbackwards, some pocket players not doing econ? Guy on front #2 in credits and econ overal wtf!
3v3 blowout : When you get taken out early, it's a blow-out. Happens to all of us sometimes. This game I made 1 mistake due to lag. I only got half the terran cap upgrade, oops. I mixed my econ and military build up pretty good. Only ran into trouble after colonizing enemy homeworld and a roid. But my allies helped me out with some cash to keep my factories pumping
3v3 match : What to do when you suck? Try complaining about the other guy getting fed. If that doesn't work, lose...
Please let me know if the replays show odd behavior. Something that would not otherwise be considered normal Had 1 replay desync fromw hat I remembered, but after I restarted Sins it played fine.
Yo can only watch games that are played in the patch that you currently run. The game was just patch recently and I don't think any of these games are from the current patch so none of them will play.
Yes I only have 1 1.03 replay up. Need more replays but I am not makign any myself now! So anyone who can please paste some links in here I'll add them up.
here is a 2v3. Me (Uber) and Howthe? took on 400 babies, senorchavez and gmoe and won.
A really good game we both managed to push for the most part even without a feeder.

6 player FFA unlocked teams. Was a good game
http://www.filefront.com/14242511/Good%20FFA.record
Thanks Uber/Top Vasari. Nice game! I had been wanting a replay with Howthe - the master Vasari Economist. It was helpful. I may use it in another post discussing player strategies, if thats OK.
np Howthe proved in this game how poorly SB spamming works. 400 babies got just as much feed as gmoe but had almost no fleet due to SBs
Upgraded SB trade kicks ass tho
still waiting for the replay that Sunny keeps promising for already more then 2 months......it is said that in the replay sunny succefully holds off attack of 3 players...
I really want some 1.03 replays. I'm getting ready to go online for the first time, and want to get an idea of how to play vs. humans. Watched Uber's game. Very interesting to be sure. 2 guys feeding their enemy.
Beric I don't think feeding means what you think it means It's not like feeding XP in otehr games. In Sose/Sins feedign means one player gives the other resources. In that game How? was able to feed top vasari/Uber quite a bit even thou he was onf ront himself. This is very hard to pull off unless you are very good or facing very poor opponent on your front
Are you sure its a 1.03 replay? It's easy to hold off 3 players with feed once you get a good SB up and support it with proper stuff. Thou u may need some good tech like Meteor Shower, Overseers, or for tech I guess hoshiko and flak burst or missile barrage.

A good 5v5 I participated in.
Epic Game or Epic Gheyness? You decide.
Was this game an epic come-from-behind win or was it a case of epic gheyness where a team refuses to quit because they think they can win it? You decide.
Game: 5v5 pug match on Entrenchment, huge random single star map
Ferdie, (me as Admiral Kutozov), Slackah Chicken, BagsX, Servicious (Winners!)
v.
Archnemesis, EckNegative, Sgt Major, Zanglos, JediMindTrick (LOOOOOsers!)

Here you go Proletari, God Save The Queen and Freddie Mercury
This game proves that 'it isnt over till its over'
Started off as a 3v3, but very soon turned to a 3v1 situation where one of my allies was dead (AI - guy left), another gave up after he though we couldent win (AI - guy left). Like retards who have just ran out of an asylum, they started to build destras and mass kanraks to take my fleet, as an advent player, who knows every unbalance out there uses them to his advantage, spamming illums and guardians with repusle was the game winner here. it turned into a fun 3v1, but as they couldent kill my fleet, I didnt quit, due to the reason why should i leave if my fleet aint dead? I told them I would quit if they killed my fleet, they couldent and the victory was given to the newly promoted:
Lt.Col. SunnyVS
Former Ranks:
Major SunnyVS
Commander SunnyVS
P.s. I am Drunk, So I think this is the correct one .
Have Fun watching
http://www.filefront.com/14472935/hero.record
Lol Sunny. It sounds like they were too new to the game to know how to finish you off.
Sunny, the game minidumps mid-way. So it doesn't prove much.
Nice replay Whip, I enjoyed it.
Epic selfishness where teammates refuse to feed. Whereas the winning team cooperates together. ArchNemesis is in the eco slot, goes strictly military, rarely feeds, and then unbelieveably doesn't redesignate his homeworld (Capital) resulting in 'zero' income for the last half. Slackah, in your team's eco slot, builds a substantial lead in income, and readily feeds. Jedi Mind Trick goes AWOL early on, making it a 5v4 once noob Servicious is nursed back to health. As an suspicious aside; last night EckNegative still had a perfect unblemished record (all wins, 3-3-0?) despite this obvious loss. Also see comments here.
Here's an another interesting replay, with a unique strategy: scuttle scouts, build 1 lab, tech 2nd Cap ship crew, build ONLY 2 Marzas with Raze Planet, feed EVERYTHING to your teammate, and rush the neighbors together. GAME OVER in 25 minutes:
5v5 ferdie, BvM, Sv3ny, Hiroge, RedHC
Sage it does that, keep playing it, it should let you have at least one clear run of the whole game, I had to watch it a couple of times before it worked without minidumping, I maybe able to find the orginal, but it will take ages!
Sadly, I was on the wrong side of that one. Somewhere, someone on the other team had to have been very weak as a result of early game feeding to pull that off, but my team failed to capitalize on it.
no proof given...replay minidumps before any serious action starts.
btw its the one I was thinking about - we were experimenting with theoretical REPULSE counters for practical use in future
didnt find anything adequate then as I remember.....strange you took it all on your 'ultra skill' account.
expected you to be more mature sunny,or less blind - all the explanations were given in chat.
but dont be sad about this,I still love you sunny - you are the only chickenhawk I has,my speshul boy.
5v5 Pug on a Custom Map!
Here is a good 5v5 that was played on the map Red Crush-2. Who broke through the chokepoints to get into the enemy's backfield? Why did a skilled player lose a capital ship without knowing that it was going down until it blew up? Is it possible to win when one of your players has suffered a minidump and the other team has JJ on it? Find out!

You need to add the map Red Crush-2 to your GalaxyForge folder to watch it. If you like pug matches, definitely get the map pack, see this thread for download and installation instructions: http://tinyurl.com/Sins5
A Tale of 15 Kols, Repulse Gheyness, and a Big Explosion
http://www.filefront.com/14509167/A-Tale-of-15-Kols-Repulse-Gheyness-and-a-Big-Explosion.record/
Imagine Krath suffering from repulse gheyness...Elrosh having 15 Kols...and a great big starbase explosion (at 1:41) that wipes out about 650 fleet supply worth of enemy ships. You need to add the map Diamond 4v4 near to your GalaxyForge folder to watch it. If you like pug matches, definitely get the map pack.

Here's a 4v4 match for 1.03 Entrenchment that was completed just shortly. I think it also helps show how much map position can hurt a player, though for the most part this was fortunate for my side.

A good game sword. I don't see that anyone had a great advantage. It does show that having your feeder randomly disconnect can hurt a team, but nothing else IMO. Thanks for the replay.
Cool thnx for keeping my thread alive. I moved and I had no internet for weeks! I'm gonna watch these replays thou. GJ
