I redownloaded faf this morning and realized I started playing this game 7 years ago. It's still a fantastic game and very much so loved. Kudos to you for keeping the casts going! At the end of the day, you could have decided at any point to drop supcom and move on to more popular video themes, but you kept at it and we love you for it! (

And old game but a goodie! From about 18:30 Blodir was able to use his commander to build up the bottom area again. He fortified the area and was able to build T2 mexes, aided by reclaim. Turin's mistake was to try a run by instead of tangling with the com and applying more pressure to deny that area. Therefore his air dominance a few minutes previously didn't have a long term impact on the game. This one skirmish is the whole game in microcosm - Turinturamber pulling off a tactical win, but losing strategically. This happens again and again. Also, something I don't see players doing is manually attacking the ground to destroy reclaim. Remember that around 80% of a unit's mass is left behind in its wreck. So killing a ~900 mass T2 mex leaves around 700 mass on the ground. If you don't deny the area to the enemy, they can reclaim and quickly build up without much trouble. For micro focused players I think this would be huge.

Started well. Blue pushed into air well. Red counterattack effective. Blue was blunted and forgot how to mass combined arms. Red took the middle and kept the bottom right. Half way and I’m calling this for red right now, we’ll see. Red won’t attack and blue doesn’t attack as a formation.
@IRMentat4 жыл бұрын
Well, I called it. Closet at points than I expected but blue seemed to have a build but couldn’t deal with being countered. Red took the hits, made the counter then kept up the pressure, especially in the air. A bit more harass-defence from red with T2/3 creep would have been nice. Blue needed to support his 6 unit attack squads instead of using them as suicide buffers. The second T3 ship was a mistake blue should have switched to some AE or direct fire ships/air and slaughtered the obvious second wave of spam.

Yep, it's easy to see when we have all the information from a neutral observer, but there are many points in this game where either player could push their advantage and win sooner. Turin never looked like threatening Blodir, despite having air superiority for much of the game, and hitting earlier timings like T3 land and sea. He's right about the unit suiciding giving him mass, but what use did he make of it? Even the GC was used when he had already lost.

I love watching u Gyle, keep it up man! Ur great! Btw(for us nerds out there) I find that SupCom is the ONLY universe that could stand against that of Warhammer. ACUs are incredibly powerful and mech marines dwarf a space marine. I personally like Warhammer more but I also love SupCom and the fact that both could reliably box each other or COMPLETELY annihilate the other universes if together simply satisfies me;)
@zachawkes28424 жыл бұрын
A Mech Marine is 6m tall (The size of an Imperial Knight) and fires 500mm rounds from its dual machine guns, it absolutely wipes the floor with most 40k ground units aside from large titans. And that's just the most basic combat unit!
@RiskOfBaer4 жыл бұрын
I don't know where you're pulling your information, but it's completely wrong. Imperial knights are up to 12 meters tall, and that's the smallest one of them all, and not really the part of the main efforts of the Titan Legion. Even the "scout" class titan is 14 meters tall, your main bulk of the titan army consists of Warlord class Titans that are 33 meters tall. Those guys could mow Mech Marines in hundreds. And then there are still Imperator class titans. Also I'm, pretty sure that in terms of firepower, there's not even a point of comparison between the two. We're talking about giant machines with basically impenetrable layers of extremely powerful void shields, vs mostly unshielded troops, or shields that can be taken down with conventional (albeit larger caliber) weaponry with some effort. As for weapons... Let's just say that after reading Titandeath I find it hard to be impressed with anything I've seen in supreme commander. And this is just titans, there are many, many, many, many other things that might be an even bigger issue to overcome. So, no. It's still not as crazy and absolutely off the rails as 40k is. I'm pretty sure that if you put the SupCom universe inside 40k, or vice versa, they would get absolutely swarmed and slaughtered not only by the imperium, but by just about any other race out there. Maybe besides Tau.
@zachawkes28424 жыл бұрын
You are forgetting that in universe Mech Marines can be produced in seconds. How long does it take for an Imperial Knight to drop to a planet? Or to be produced? Mass numbers will obliterate anything 40k can throw at it, and yeah I stand corrected Imperial Knights are between 9 and 12 metres tall - however are much less maneuverable than a Mech Marine.
@Squee7e4 жыл бұрын
@@RiskOfBaer When bringing up this discussion you have to consider how big T2, T3 and T4 units are. There is no species / nation i can think of in WH40k which will stand a chance versus a couple commanders with quantum gateway technology. The SupCom technology is so advanced that it could beat most of the "existing" factions of every other SciFi universe i know of. Surely i'm not very well educated in the lore of 40k but i'm pretty sure they don't have any way of moving in an instant or creating whole bases within minutes. Here's a link to a size comparison of the T4 units: images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/252591929670076458/07FA0626C8B9698521195ACDD01B61CF73E3CFE6/?interpolation=lanczos-none&output-format=jpeg&output-quality=95&fit=inside%7C1024:* I hope you get the point. There is no way any 40k faction only has a slight chance versus a couple of commanders. Of which there a plenty in the endless war...

On the flipside, Turin was doing a pretty good job of sending scout planes through every so often. He was too slow to spot the nuke but he did see it eventually and was part way to loading his SMD when the nuke landed. I agree it's a silly mistake though, and it's funny because it also doesn't look like pros use templates much if at all. A simple defensive template with a radar, some TMD, maybe AA that could be scattered along sensitive areas would go a long way to preventing common weaknesses.

This might be a noob question but, aside from the possible energy cost, why are there so few turtles, or better yet, so few point defenses on these ranked games? Whenever I see a game that a player includes them in their base they lose Experimentals and units left and right but then you get situation like this where he's being overran by tier 1 and 2 units.
@eneco39654 жыл бұрын
It's just that if you decide to turtle, you're gonna have less map control, therefore less resources. With that, your enemy is gonna have more resources to build units with, and any defences you build aren't gonna be able to keep up because your opponent just has more everything. Aside from defences, I guess. You know how it is, there's always strength in numbers.
