if i let the opponent pick a zerg he'll get superfast roaches (gotta love the cheating ai^^) and i#m toast. a terran's bioball gets very strong early on, protoss seems kidna okish but i don't seem able to break it. i mostly played on seperated bases, but i guess it's time to play on a shared base map, even if their ecos will start to kick off. some tips anyone? | ||

only thing which was useful was the canceling/rebuilding extractor, everything else came too late for me, it also doesn't help that the insane ai on my team is always 10x dumber than theirs replay of how i did it http://www.mediafire.com/?gpks9g7zw2rfpzj | ||

It will definitely help but be sure to watch it. Just keep cancelling at the last second or two. Don't lose your drone.. | ||

Send 2 drones out at the start to different bases to build extractors. Keep cancelling them and rebuilding. The enemy drones literally spend all their time attacking and not mining. That allows your 3 AI buddies to get a good lead while you do this. Then I teched to mutas and just ran around econ harassing. | ||

The chances of 3 against 4 insane to actually survive just as long as necessary until the player is ready to assist are not as bad actually, like 50%. This means it's no certain victory using that tactic, but like 1/2 or 1/3 perhaps, enough to call it realistic chances. Advantages: On map on Megaton for example, AI often tends to stray around on the map, and as a player one can decide where to confront. This often leads to a numerical advantage, because you can jump in whereever necessary while AI roams around weirdly and often don't unite their armies properly. This means once the player got a sufficient armies to roughly keep up with the current insane player armies, 3 AI+player got the advantage. Especially on Megaton it is not that hard to deny them expansions either, while expanding yourself. Choice of units: Doesn't really matter for this. Mass Roach and later hydra will do, just like Infestor tech or Mutalisks, which can harass quite effectively and keep your opponents at their base as well as jumping into fights. However: Don't approach this without sufficient macro. I'ld say it roughly requires the same macro as campaign on brutal for example. | ||

me ------- AI ZZZZ vs PPPP (the computers usually do the pool->roach rush and overpoewr one of the computers. expand after the initial roach rush) PPPP vs ZZZZ (the computers usualy do the 2 gate zealot push and outnumber a computer, this automatically gives you a 4v3 edge if you push out and secure it with them) TTTT vs TTTT (this one is a bit tricky because i did a 3 barracks reaper into expand into 6 barracks reapers and just harrass the shit out of the computers until you eventually kill everything with mass reapers) Do this 3x for the Hard/Very hard/Insane computers and you get youreslf six achievmenets in 9 games.  | ||

PPPP vs TTTT: cannon rush. transition into mass voidrays, requesting ressources from your allies repeatedly. super easy. TTTT vs PPPP: 1/1/1 banshee build, harass the shit out of them while getting a few bases and an upgraded force of whateverthefuckyouwant, also easy. ZZZZ vs ZZZZ: 6pool with a spine crawler, i killed one guy straight away, then did tons of damage on a second one while teching to mutas, again requesting money. wasn't hard either. | ||

It's actually pretty easy all the way through. You let your AI mates do the fighting and concentrate on destroying enemy expansions. On Megaton this means simply splitting your army in half and regularly attack the northern and southern expansions. I used cloaked Banshees as T, DT's as P and Mutas as Z. I'll upload all 3 replays just in case anyone ius interested Terran: http://www.mediafire.com/?wm95lno0999gk12 Protoss: http://www.mediafire.com/?ijcb3qv2iy0cn57 Zerg: http://www.mediafire.com/?cq4pinzftv7mqa5 Have fun | ||

zzzzvzzzz I think i went mass muta, just request money from your allies and they will happily oblige. PPPPvPPPP i just cannon rushed, same as how you do it in 1v4 outmatched vs very hard (see youtube) TTTTvTTTT rine tank. Good macro might get you through all 3 but my macro as protoss leaves something to be desired so i had to cheese. | ||

IF you start attacking one of their bases with 2-3 reapers at the start, they pull back their entire army to defend. Makes it a 3v3 meanwhile, and you can continue to ruin their day by attacking another base, forcing another army back. Think I ended up with about 24 reapers, while 2 of the AI had about 100 food armies each dancing back and forth while I ran around between bases | ||
