So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)

Mon isn't as good for 2v2s, but if it is combined with commi(p first ofcourse). The monarch can mon forge to help protect the commi. I think that in general if the Mon helps out early on with post or forge it can be successful. Also with pin breaks the other partner can help the pin break with Romans, or extra snipers etc.

A team with mon in 2v2 lacks the consistency that a cap post/fasc forge team would have, but its definitely viable. I do agree that mon is weak at pin breaking though. Comm is probably the best government to pair a mon with, if only because it has a stronger post-first opening than cap for very very early parts of the game.

Okay next topic:

What music do you listen to when playing Colony?

I usually listen to Epic music. It's a classical music type, however, unlike more traditional classical music it makes shivers down your spine. Every time I listen to it I feel as if I am leading an army of 1,000,000 (on Colony I usually am).

Requiem For A Dream is my favorite song of this genre.
