16 Dec 11 UTC | Spring, 1901: Good luck. I saw your 5 minute game yesterday that expired. I couldn't commit to 5 minute turns, but I can usually move fast, in between doing other things. 12 hours will work great. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1901: sweet. you look experienced on this site. i am just starting. i have only played the Ancient Med, World and Classic maps. if you could give me helpful pointers if you see me make mistakes, please do so. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Spring, 1902: I will wait till I see that my advice won't be used against me... :) ... but sure. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1902: I love this variant. It has more strategy than the other 1v1 variants. You picked a very common opening strategy, to get 3 SC's right off the bat. I like giving up one SC on the first turn because this turn I will get 3 and you will get 1. I will also get to build them after I know the direction you are headed. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1902: good thinking. ;) |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1902: i also see how it makes sense to push forward and worry about the SCs behind you later. that was silly. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1902: Yeah, on a 1v1 game, the strategy is a little different. You have to push at the opponent. On multi-player games, sometimes you just need to back off and let the other players attack your enemy first. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1903: man, we can play this out, but i am at serious disadvantage. :) |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Spring, 1904: Yeah, I think I have this one. Next time you play a 1v1, go after the other player. If you can keep him from getting a SC, it's the same as if you both got one. If he backs up, like you did in this game, you both get a build, but you get the better position. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: yeah, plus i just f*cked up and didn't move two ofmy units and hit ready. dumb. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: is there a restart or cancel option? |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: or do you want to play it out to get the solo? i am cool either way. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: you earned it. ;) |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: Wouldnt mind finishing it out. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: ok. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: it will be quick. ;) |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1904: 1 v 1 is a very different beast. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1905: Very different, but I think this variant is closest to regular. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1906: i tried the Civil War one and that was odd. starting next to each other is a strange way to play. |
16 Dec 11 UTC | Autumn, 1907: I never played civil war. I have only played the classic map 1v1 games and lepanto. |
