Alvendor/awpertunity: would you like to play some games? Feel free to friend me, my nick is vivafringe.

Thanks for posting the replays. Here are my thoughts on them:

necrocat: F vs. F isn't really what I was looking for. Funny game though, the scrambler was indeed a huge kick in the nuts.

Alvendor: Cool game. When I play on Peekaboo, I always leave a Bombshell and some soldiers to cover my own witpoint. Then I use a second bombshell to deathpush theirs. That avoids the annoying shenanigans that Calmon did that game, but is definitely much slower.

Awpertunity: Don't worry, I am saving witpoints every turn. I am in ST after all . But it's a legitimate point that maybe my opponents aren't, which makes my siege tanks feel more invincible than they actually are. Anyway, as someone else mentioned, the Scrambler play actually wasn't that great. He sacrificed a bajillion soldiers + a scrambler to kill your Bombshell and do 1 damage to your base. The end result was you being ahead on material.

Also: yeah there are all kinds of fun gimmicks you can do with whale. From what I've seen they are not as powerful as the Bombshell's attack though. In all the wars of attrition I've played vs. Mobis, I've come out ahead. Maybe it's due to a lack of good players, though; I'm definitely open to that.
