The flipside is that its not really as much fun to play now. And I mean that in a purely sim-city sense. The age of experimentation is over. Now its just technicality. | ||

And I made units in groups of 12. So I would have like 12 dragoons, and then I would make 12 carriers. Which to me was the ULTIMATE POSSIBLE ;; Me too. And if one carrier got hurt beyond the shields it'd be retreat time, that carrier would be retired to base and a new one would be built. If it's damaged then it is no longer as strong as it can possibly be. | ||

When you drag the box over mutas as soon as they pop hatch, sometimes you get a olv or larva in the cntrl group. Most likely someone noticed that the mutas stacked and found out why. How do you make the olv spin? That is something I forgot how to do because when I knew it I didn't use it. If you wanted it to to spin say on a command center, you center it on the cc first, then you right click somewhere else and immediately press patrol and left click on the cc. So the overlord will be patrolling between 2 very close points and will twirl round and round. | ||

I just guessed it would've been more fun since everyone would have their own unique strats, it wouldnt be the stock-BO's you see in most games now. Just a thought. | ||

I think that's about true. 1 hatch hydra rushes were also quite valid before larva spawn was slower And in vanilla I did tank+m pushed everything. Push1: do dmg, Push2: do more dmg Push 3: have BCs and win. Opponent was contained and got owned by BCs, I think that was my short period of gosu-ness when I got the timing down, ofcourse it didn't last more than a month or so | ||
