Match Report

Nice match, even though some players should remember that returning to readyroom before the end of the round isn't precisely what I'd call fairplay. No matter how much loss he had.

(1) Marines : Armless (Comm : Omood) | Aliens : DiE (Hive : Fusion)

Vlad and beubeu evolve to gorge and build Acidic and Cargo's RTs, while the marines move to the double and Cargo. One goes to West in order to build RTs. Two attacks from the rines on Cargo eventually lead to their death. MCs are built by the aliens. The rines then try to build a PG in Acidic with no success, while Kaz evolves to fade (04), soon followed by Vermin as Lerk (05). Sat is launched.

In the mean time (04:40), Satellite's access is welded by a three-shotguns squad while Vlad attacks the armory in the MS. Close to Sat, a PG is up @ 05:25. Kaz maintains pressure on the MS, then moves onto Sat, but he can't help the inevitable : the Hive falls @ 6:30.

While a marine goes and build West's RTs again, the others build (successfully this time) a PG in Acidic. Evolution evolves (funny, ain't it ?.) to Lerk @ 07. A TF is built in Cargo, Kaz's fade dies (09:55), soon followed by Evolution and Vermin as lerks. The hive is down @ 11:29.

The round goes to Armless.

(2) Marines : DiE (Comm : Vermin) | Aliens : Armless (Hive : Waste)

MC Strategy. Heras' and Vara's gorges build West Access and Cargo. Acidic will be built a bit later, dying at 03:30. In the meantime, some marines rush to the Doubles, then to Cargo. Fusion's Hive is launched @ 03. Skor evolves to fade @ 03:40.

Cargo, which is constantly harassed by the rines, is eventually cleaned by the aliens. Omood evolves to Lerk @ 04. Some shotguns are sent to the doubles which have been devoured by famished aliens (I told you to feed the Kharaa !§). Omood harasses the poor marines with spores. Fusion is up @ 6, as is the Proto. Heras and ChurrusKitO evolve to Fades.

Vlad successfully infiltrate Waste, in which SCs have been built : the PG is up, HMGs are dropped, but a bit too late. Only one rush, and the PG is resold due to the fades killing all of the incoming rines.

Skor's fade dies @ 8, soon followed by ChurrusKitO and Haras. But the rines have no RTs anymore, and soon the MS is locked by the relentless aliens.

The round goes to Armless.

(1) Marines : Armless (Comm : Omood) | Aliens : DiE (Hive : Alpha)

MC strategy. The Rines go through Beta and Los Paranoias to Requiem, where they eventually die. While Coolant, Equilibrium and External RTs are built by another squad of marines, the aliens have no RT built. Motion Tracking is up @ 02:31. The aliens maintain pressure on their enemies' RTs.

Kaz (or Caz, nevermind) evolves to fade @ 05:45, one minute after a PG is built in Cargo. Some shotguns are dropped @ 05 ; a PG is built in Equilibrium shortly after. Another attempt to build a PG in Internal Access eventually fails. A TF is built in Cargo, which is locked @ 07:48. The aliens do a great job on Armless' RTs, which soon no longer exist at all. Beubeu then evolves to Fade himself @ 08.

But in the meantime, a Proto is up @ 08:44. With enough backup ressources, the marines build a PG close to Coolant : Equilibrium, which had been launched earlier, falls while Caz's fade dies.

Beubeu does a great jobe maintaining pressure on the MS (the Observatory is destroyed soon enough). The marines are more or less locked in their base, but they eventually make it to Los Paranoias where vara tries, with no success, to build a PG (while some RTs are built again). Vader (call him Evolution the rest of the time.) evolves to Lerk just before Beubeu becomes one with the Force.

The marines eventually succeed in building Los Paranoias' PG (@ 13). They now own all of the RTs on the map. A TF and some Sieges are up @ 14:30, the Hive falls @ 14:52.

The round goes to Armless.

(2) Marines : DiE (Comm : Vermin) | Aliens : Armless (Hive : Alpha)

MC Strategy ("no way, you're kidding"). While the marines concentrate on Temperature, the aliens build Eternal and External. A looong fight occurs close to Eternal, the aliens and the marines alternatively winning against their opponents. Equilibrium's and Coolant's RTs are built by the marines while Heras and Skor fade (@ 04:00). The later maintains a great pressure on the MS.

A PG is up in the MS @ 04:20, soon followed by a Proto (@ 05). And then.. well, I guess all of the players were kinda tired, no big action during a long minute. Nevertheless, the rines have no RTs anymore @ 06 and Cargo is launched. Vara then evolves to Lerk, the MS is locked soon after.

Beubeu makes its way to the hive with a shotgun, but eventually dies shortly after it is up (@ 08). The second upgrade chosen by Armless is Sensory. The MS dies shortly after.

Game, set and match.
