I am in a game right now.

He has about 20 battlecruisers hovering over his mined out island on scrapstation. The island is full of turrets. Turrets apparently kill 3/3 voidrays and interceptors. I got a mothership in by suiciding 200/200 voidrays but my recall lost to BCs.

I have infinite money, since he only had 2 bases all game long.

TL, YOU'RE MY ONLY HOPE.

EDIT: MAN I LOST WHEN I WAS AFK. I thought people like this didn't exist at 700+ diamond. Thanks for the help though. Hallucination is a good idea for next time . Yah I couldn't feedback anything because he parked his BCs over his island and just went AFK himself for a long time. Recalls died before units could be clicked on :/

So embarrassing, but it's probably worth it for the time saved

EDIT2: On second thought I'm not really sure what to do: hallucinated recalls would probably die as fast as my regular recalls. Remember, he's on an island and he has turrets over literally every inch of terrain

Set up an impenetrable fortress at the opposite end of the map. Then send some probes to negotiate until you strike a deal.

Mothership round 2. Use the black hole and get his bc's while your voidrays wreck everything else, once they're charge they'll destroy the bc's.

How much money is infinite? Because his losses are intensely definite and yours are replenish able. even like 6:1 losses should be fine.

Wear down his BCs with void rays until he's out of money.

Never sacrifice too many void rays at once so that he can counter attack. Just suicide and rebuild a few at a time.

Aren't carriers superior to void rays? You can sacrifice interceptors cheap while spiking BCs.

Although void rays are more likely to get kills. You could also spike the turrets if he has no minerals.

But it's possible he'll rebuild turrets. BCs are safer kill.

But BCs can be repaired more successfully because they have more HP / armor. Turrets die faster.

But repair costs money also.

Maxed carriers should be able to walk right in.

E-mail this rep to me when you're done?

Seems like you'd do the same thing as you would vs a turtling 2base T in BW on, say, HBR... except the cliff leading to the nat collapsed... and no mines.

Hallu recall sounds fun. GL!

Make Sentries and research hallucinations.

If there is a place where you can drop, add more warp gates and get warp prisms in.
Stalkers may do better than your air?

If there is enough place for pylons then drop probes there too.

Could've blinked over tons of stalkers too ... even if they only kill a few BCs, sooner or later the numbers will get low enough to kill em.

Oh well, too late now I suppose.

Against 20 BCs the stalkers would die without killing a single BC most likely

Yeah in that situation I'd probably just do mass production facility and mine out everything. Deal damage slowly until he eventually runs out of cash and you win.

I think the black hole idea would have worked..Then you could attack with void rays and carriers

All I'll say is don't underestimate 20 yamato's. You're 20 voidrays or 10 carriers down before hardly even taking your first shot.

1)Mine out whole map with a void ray/carrier force to defend if he tries to move out. Be prepared to sac your main to yamatos, but don't let him yamato your force every once in a while - at least, make him go away from turrets if he wants to try that.
2)Kill most of your probes, get a bunch of stargates.
3)On ~90 free supply, add 30 more void rays/carriers.

4)Attack, rebuild, attack - you should have resources for at least couple of 200 air waves. He might survive one, but then he's dead.

5)Yup, hallucinations are good.

6)Can you vortex his BCs?

The best idea would of been sit back mass up like 10+/20+ stargates/warpgates and sit back with carriers, because you do not want to attack into that
Can you feel the rush?
