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.
New 1.05 replay.Very good thought we had lost it.I use mines and subs offensively to take down a massive tec fleet with big eco and I havin none.Its a 2v2.Big comeback.

Thanks, though I wouldn't call that a good replay you played well and the finish with the mines was fun.
However, of your opponents blue simply won't defend and spends his time adding small fleets plus irritating tactical non-advice to his ally, he loses the game on his own, to not much of an attack. The other opponent, yellow, has three times your finances or more- yet replaces his Sovas with Kols and then when he loses them too he has no caps or carriers at all! When you have as much advantage as that, not to have carriers at all...? So his fleet is mostly siege frigates and siege cruisers! Also, he sieges your ice with his Kols and pulls the rest of his fleet away to the roid, so you jump and destroy one cap with bombers before he can get back... then he loses the other Kol the exact same way..?
Your ally is no better, he fails to create any financial base despite having a huge empire, and even loses money from one of his first volcanics all game. Had yellow bothered to put any pressure on him it might have kept blue in the game with much more of an empire. Though having said that blue didn't seem as if he would do anything but fold up, and in the most annoying manner possible. I've had allies like that, I was frustrated just watching it.... too many bad experiences.
Still 2v2 replays are almost as welcome as 1v1. Perhaps a new thread for 1.05?
Ya well that was kinda my point as to why it was good for me at least.I survived basically a 2v1 situation while blue basically just stalled my ally for a long time and attacked me with what he could.At the same time I fight off a huge tec eco montster(compared to me) with smaller fleet and win.Also tho I got fed like you said my ally didnt have much eco.He did try to feed when I asked and followed my advice which was very nice and I appreciated that.He makes a great team player for those reasons.Despite what you think my enemies where fairly experienced with over 100 games each on their accounts(pretty sure).
A Diplomacy replay. It's a pretty interesting 3v3, and gives good demonstration of pacts.

Unfortunately it minidumps at 21:37!
Hello guys, I'm new to the game, just played a few matches so far, today I joined up with a 2v2v2 Entrenchment game that took some setting up, but oh well.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=URLXBBQO
I'm dark green
It went pretty well I think, but I have a lot of trouble keeping up when there's a lot of planets involved - splitting my attention all over hte place I always leave something out, either economy or building or teching whatever. This time I just didn't have enough warships so I got steamrolled in a battle, and as my ally had just given up before I decided to surrender.
Any tips would be welcome
I'm having trouble viewing replays. I put the file in the right directory, but when I open the game, there's nothign in the replays?
And before you ask, I checked single player recorded games, single player auto recorded game, and the miltiplayer equivalents... nothing.
you cant watch them anyway,need game version 1.04
