... i wonder why all of you all take DOTA like poison. It just a group activity game nothing else.
Hunt iam surprise that you have kaki to play games with without DOTA...
Anyway back into DOW.
IG will become a tricky race as it very different from others where this one relys on base defends to win. So for IG is eitier you hold it or lose it.
I still say Bassy is a little Imba esp come to small maps. where the Bassy have near to infinite range. Forget ASM with Meltas as the IG can just stuff all its plasma guardsmen and turrets next to the bassy. Also dont even think of Vec.. Sentinels can bring every vec down in the field.
Well i mention before long time ago.. Even without Guardsmen+commie rush the IG is still strong as ever. Just thank god they dont have their godlike T1 in 1.5

We just hate to have the game that is despised by most of us being mentioned here. if you like it, well we cant stop you but be sadden that another comrade has fallen to the DOTA plague.

I hope this kind of senario wont happen to Hunt and me
I was so sad why waba want to slaugther those orks boyz in very cruel way

isn't it orks are very cute

[/quote]
Well everyone is a Ork hater....cant help it but i almost never see someone who starts this game end up playing Orks more often than the other races. I think its because Orks use such simple technology that ppl aint attracted to them.
[quote=Waba,Aug 4 2006, 09:34 PM]
Johny, i will slaugter who ever is it the same way in this map
My lastest replay. LOL
Check out the conversation at the later stage of the game... a 1.5 IG turtling as he should and the opponent starts flaming because... the IG is turtling. What is a guy to do? Send all ur guardsman up front with cease fire stance and let CSM HB them?

Really, the conversation alone is worth the watch.
(In Qui Gon Jin's voice) There is always a bigger noob
[/quote]
Well, ill check it out for the conversation. IG = turtling. There is no other way. They are created to do just that. That was what the devs themselves said, so there is no point b****ing about it. The devs wanted RTS players of various strats to play this game including the turtling players. Now if a SM guy plays turtle, then he should be shot. IMO there's no reason for a SM to turtle.
[quote=redeye84,Aug 4 2006, 09:51 PM]
well u have to understand in the RTS world turtling is indeed a cheap move.
Is where a player will just sit in his base while his enemy frustratedly struggle to break though the defences.
Anyway since IG is all about turtle.. so no comment.
[/quote]
Well looks like they have never played Stronghold, where its all about sieging your enemies base. That game was great. Limited army and resources and dthey tell you to go and kill the Lord in that keep who has limitless resources and massive armies.
those were the days when games really test your skills.

Tell me how are u suppose to counter a competant Tier 2 choas who play predators + horror with ruthlessness? And sorcerror basically eat Guardmans for breakfast. If it was not for my max upgraded guardsman attached to a priest Chain + doombolt = free kill u know?
Come... let me show u how to own IG, even in a tech map
Sanity is for the weak![/quote]
Try being Orks and fighting a ruthless Chaos player. We have to step up our game..
With the econ we suffer, living and trying to fight Chaos is painful.
[quote=Waba,Aug 6 2006, 11:28 AM]
How are u suppose to learn anything if u dont see real tactical application? You are the one saying "future future" about the games and here u are saying these poopies and stuff. A simple two lose strait to choas and u start giving long excuses and stuff and turn to play DOTA, which i can frankly see u are quite a noob for it too, does losing means alot to you?
Winning is not as important for me as the attitude approach to games, if winning is everything I might as well go full force all the way yesterday, no?
The gathering itself is cool, but i cant really say it is justifiable for everyone to come down at prime time and sit around waiting for one another and wait for coms, that is not how things suppose to work in life, we actually spend more time to get there "to wait for ppl and hoping they are coming" than playing the game. And what is so cool about going to be pawned by a clan in BF2? You have to understand I have passed the wee age of "trying this, trying that". For me, it is either do it or not, there is no try. I see a new game, i will observe 1st, if i think dedication to it is well worth it, i invest my time and money, buy original and play.
Now i am still dedicated to improving and promoting DOW gaming standard here. I see some of u guys are duking it via hamachi on 1.4 If you guys are keen on learning I might as well revert one of my pcs back to 1.4 and play on hamachi with u ppl so u all can learn some real moves. It might be quite lonely playing DOW here but the game is well worth it.
Now who wants me to join the 1.4 local hamachi? And yes, like that u can save replay in 1.4 and learn
Orks, happens to be the least play race by me... then again, which map are you talking about?
[/quote]
Okay boyz, firstly Im sorry we clashed the BF2 and DOW LAN sessions. Aoshi thanks for the good session for BF2, we will love to play with you in the future but i hope you guys dont mind playing at Clutch as there's BF2 and DOW there.
Waba, i sorely regret you had to go back home that day to circumstances/reasons i hope will not stop you from joining us for next sessions. I do like to also apologize to all the attendees that night for being late. Thanks alot for showing patience.
Everyone here would definately would love to see the DOW community grow especially me in which i literally go around marketing DOW to every gamer i know and also to those who havent tried it.
In the future, i think we should stick to clutch as it has alot more games in it than escape. Aoshi, please dont take this the wrong way.
Well, I hope we dont have any grugdes now between us. Waba, thanks for bringing a friend along. I appreciate the effort you took to convince you friend to join us. Thanks dude. We will match up in the future. looking forward to our future DOW and other RTS sessions.

i decide to switch to Orks. From my experience, eldar is more micro intensive
than Orks and Chaos. Im not saying Orks and Chaos do not need micro, because
of eldar needs to [TAB - F] each time u move your squad makes it even harder to micro.
[/quote]
I beg to differ. I believe that Orks have is more micro intensive cause their entire gameplay has to be about how effectively to attack your enemy. In the case of Eldar, hitting Tab-f is just for their FOF. its more of turning it on and off. Orks needs everything thought out carefully and moved carefully to fight an enemy faster than us. Try moving a squad of shootas from a jumped in pack of ASMs. the way we run, almost the entire squad is gone before it can run. Microing against a fast enemy is difficult.
[quote=redeye84,Aug 6 2006, 03:39 PM]
.... U think iam upset of those losses yersterday, No i already know why i lose and i aint complaining, So u wanna that games up, I wasnt even 50% of the game and u went all out... I just played Dota that time just to kill time till Hunt arrive.
[/quote]
Sorry about being late.
[quote=redeye84,Aug 6 2006, 04:23 PM]
well i wasnt even bother about playing the game. Just killin some time.
Anyway we have a problem,.. Is hard to hold meeting playing 1.4 WA, King Kong can u really insists the dudes at clutch to patch up.
Well i got an altenative plan. Can anyway maybe we can sell the Gold pack edition cheaper to our new members then future on we dont have to go to Clutch as we can play in Hamanchi or Gamespy.
Some of you may ask why iam with the DOW comunity and along with Dota heresy. Let just say that iam Loyal to the imperium and embrace Dota heresy just like Ctrl-Alt.
[/quote]
Well, dude we're just kidding with you about the heresy thingy.....well i am...if you want to play DOTA thats your choice but like i said. it saddens to see a DOW player playing DOTA.
[quote=Waba,Aug 6 2006, 04:28 PM]
Hamachi works fine with 1.5... so we can by pass the gayspy lameness.
I have tested with Johnny and all seems fine, we can save petrol and stuff if everyone is up with it. But all need to be patch to 1.5 though, i have reports from one that says it can be done with *ahem*

It is really hard to ask a CC to patch a not so popular game for a bunch of ppl gathering once a week, I dont blame them. Unless someone knows Albert personally I will say it is quite impossible to be done.
[/quote]
Well king-kong, could you talk to albert
[quote=Waba,Aug 6 2006, 08:36 PM]
OK.. seeing I am one of the more experience player around with some freetime and ppl have shown keen interest of starting DOW I here by present to you:
Waba's guide to Basic Tier One Chaos
Why play chaos?1) Your units sound sinister
2) You are evil, evil will always triumph because good is dumb (Jk)
Core standard Build que:Heretic > cultist > cultist > cultist (3rd cultist optional depends on map size, take on large map)
First heretic build chaos chapel barrack (rax), when second heretic comes out help to build the barrack together. If you think you can control things around you can use the force labour to speed things up, but if heretic reached 0hp he will die so take note.
Send your cultists to cap the points from nearest to furthest. Heres the trick, while the cultist is capping a point u can select it while holding shift select the next point so when this point is done ithey will auto go to the next, save ur trouble.
When chaos rax is built command ur heretic to go to the nearets caping point to stand by for building LP. On chaos rax build one raptor squad. By now ur culist should finish capping the first point so build ur first LP. At this point ur raptor should either already come out or just about to come out. Anyway as soon as u get enough req que chaos lord on rax. When the raptor comes out send them hunting, now this is important, DO NOT reinforce them (adding squad member) as this will slow down all the que behind, lets stick with basic first. At the early stage of games reinforce ur squad only then 1) They have been in combat and losing unit (which u should not coz their job is to harrass, not search and destroy, yet) 2) You are expert and know what u are doing
RaptorsNow the primary job of the raptors is
NOT going around killing weak units. Their maximum potential damage lies in
economy disruption. Soon as the raptors jump zone reaches the out limits of ur enemy territoty jump them and attack any one caught still capping points. If the point is cap but not LPed decap them first dont go around chasing scouts or the like. After you decap the points continue searching the inner part of the enemy zone until no more points can be decap only u should go and chase scouts.
At this point ur Chaos Lord should be about to come out and u should be doing the second LP already, remember to sent ur heretic to the next lp point when they are done, it can be done with the SHIFT key trick too.
Chaos LordChaos Lords are warriors who have within them the will, skill and strength to be the greatest of Mankind's heroes. Their tragedy is that they have chosen to be Mankind's greatest nemesis.Now the deal with chaos lord (CL) is simple:
He is the baddest ass in the game Nothing in the game in Tier one can go 1v1 on him and left standing after the fight, yes, any hero caught 1v1 melee clean fight with CL is dead automatically. Only the IG Command squad with 2 priests have the slightest chance of beating a CL in a fair fight, but it is highly unlikely. And did i mentioned his axe is poisoned so any one touched by it is slowed down?
Chaos Space MarinesBy this time ur second LP should be done and soon as u hit 190req order the chaos space marine (CSM) squad from the chaos rax and rally ur rax to ur CL. CSM are excellent Tier one warrior for 1) They have sinister laugter and quite durable 2)large squad size max squad size of 10.
By this time ur raptors should have kick the bee hive in the center and enemy units/champion are chasing after them in swarm. have them link up with ur CL and bash them back. If they proved to be too much back off and wait for ur csm to regroup. With the 2 Lps ur req should be going quite fast now. build 2 more lps and start reinforcing ur raptor and csm squad, if possible build another csm squad (depending whether u built the 3rd cultist squad or not)
The charge
Group ur CL as one as group one, CSM as squad 2 (press F2 for range stance so they stand and shoot instead of going in and melee) and raptors as squad 3 and proceed to kill the AI, ask ur cultist to come too if they are standing around and doing nothing (actually group anyway u like long as u are comfortable, the above is my default). When engage, send ur CL to his boss, ur raptor to his main shooter unit and ur CSM to pick up the rest, if u find urself having extra req build power and armory.
This is the very very basic chaos play and u should able to kill a standard space marine AI in small map with ease. Master this, then we can go to the next level.
Hve fun!

Dude....nicely done....will get one done for the Orks when i free some time.
[quote=redeye84,Aug 7 2006, 12:03 AM]
iam not 100% sure about this Hunt can u verify, The WA in the CC are attually original or using orignal Cdkey. If they patch up the WA it can attually go online.
Yup in 1.4 and 1.41 they are indeed unbeatable, well close to it.
A solution 2 ways.
Be IG and kick ass your self or...
Be Eldar Mass guardians and Farseer. Get your Farseer to Mind warp their Commisar/ Command Squad and Phycic bomb everything. Vec or Turret blocking your way Fire Dragons.
[/quote]
Well, before to patch it means original. but now you can patch the game and use the crack..the trick is to patch the game all the way to 1.5 and then crack it. Thats what i had one of my friend do..
However in the CC....unable to log on to gamespy cause of patch means fake CD.....well will check in detail when im in clutch again.
