Well this maybe you know how to counter this kind of Protoss game (im terran).
The protoss starts with range goons and and he keeps bulking units and then he expands a lil late but not too much, and he camps outside of my base with nearly ALL of his units and with several observers he see any possible drop attempt, he rally points his units to the exit of my base suddenly he starts expoint like HELL!, and when i scan this im pretty much in a hurry to stop him or else ill be overwhelmed so most of the time i grab like 8 SCVs in the front, all my tanks and vultures and Attack "NaDa Style" but since ALL of his units are waiting for me and he is expecting me to do this he rape my ass bigtime.
If i try to move his units back its pretty hard because if i siege with no mines enough and turrets he attacks and generally beat my ass, and if i start a turtle push from my main he will have an unstopabble economy.
So what do should i do?, i thinked about mass drop (4+dropships) to force him spread his units but its risky if he surrounds me with obs.

Don't try to do anything "Nada style"
Maybe you should build turrets to get his observers out of your base, then go cliff dropping with gols/tanks
|
his units can only get so close...I'll assume it's LT so try to stick tanks on your cliff if you think the protoss is going to do that, the tanks with the extra range should distance the protoss a bit.
get your ebay up for turrets to kill his obs and if he's got all his units at your entrance try maybe to get an expansion secured some where else and maybe harass his main with tank/vul/gol drops to make him spread his units out
|
macro better and or push slower to exp --;
|
just work on more harass, if he cannot build that many units due to low econ your in good shape, then after you have done this, match him for expos and go nada style and you should be ok
|
i dont see how he can possibly do that vs your ledge advantage... 1 tank is enough to push his units far away from your base. Just do standard terran...?
|
baal u just need to play WAY more games. If a protoss is expoing everywhere he will have no units to stop a push. Oh also its a good idea to make factorys.

I know exactly what you are talking about - good macro toss is like the bitch itself to stop.
Basicly you can rule out vulture harass, because every toss woth his $2 will have 2 cannons at every exp, but the key is still harass while slowpushing if his army match yours..do mass drops while pushing and genrerally be the gayest you can.

yah its hard to fight face to face, like nada style you always get crushed the best thing u can do is to do a gayest terran harass =/

lol stfu nextel like you were good, or do you want me to remember how badly you were owned in my lil tournament?
i cant vult harass because his semi circle is so closed that the vults rarely will come out of there alive, i think ill kill obs and siege outside of his vision, maybe with the confussion i can win a lil advantage.

simple 2 factory vulture kills what you described with ease. you suck@bw k hf.
|
You should probably be pushing out faster than you already are to establish some map control. It's all about map control. Get a few tanks (6-8) a dozen vultures and start pushin.' Probably wanna defend your mins though because most good protosses drop and try to hurt your economy while you are busy pushin'
|
2 cannons buys time vs vulture harrass, it doesnt stop it
|
because cannons are the answer to all of life's questions, right?
|
2 cannons stops vults cold. it stops it. period.
what you clearly failed to understand that the issue of cannons is irrelevant because a protoss will not have them.
goons out.
vults around.
maybe goon blocking ramp.
but probably not.
no obs 100%.
