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)
I don't know if it's firetail's strategy, but both dogfight and earthquake are very susceptible to the blockade strategy. Blockade meaning you park your units just a bit out of the range of the base defenses, but close enough so you can snipe any units the enemy makes. It's best with snipers and hovers in earthquake, and of course with scouts in dogfight.
As for meditecs? I find it most useful against missile/queen spammers. While 1 missile/1 queen can't do much damage to say.... hovers, if they keep spamming them, your fleet of hovers will be at like half health by the time they attack. Meditechs can keep them stay at full health so they aren't susceptible to AOE attacks like that.
I rarely play anything but normal these days. Normal allows for diversity, even though I usually follow the same build order and strategy, I always like to see what the enemy comes up with (I've seen everything from dual missiles to dual marine rush haha)

Exactly what I'm talking about. In Earthquake, you can camp a group of snipers out of the hovers range and kill them before they get in range, and if they start coming forward you just run, because snipers move faster.

I got something that you can't counter...when your video cards (or w/e) don't synch up. I was minding my business making my little army, and then they started to blow up. I looked at the other guy and his units were at his base, in fact I didn't even see his buildings. Unfortunately my partner was having the same problem.
This problem has been increasing for me the past few days.
Firetail, in what order to you put you buildings for the blockade? I could never do that without some hostile units taking them out.
Depends what unit blockade your doing.
@Everyone I've got a glitch to report to. My partner said he build a forge, but all I saw was a flashing yellow light on one of the platforms, like a tower was being built, but nothing ever appeared. Still, he could send out units, and all kinds of stuff. Also, once, my partner build a hospital and it came out as a white block with nothing on it.
I have had that one a lot. Including one time with you. You know in a lot of our matches firetail, you will be attacking the enemy and I don't even notice.

I saw one on your platform too. Bronze, you could just be having bad internet connection.
