I like playing land rush against my friend, I am so much better than him (and thats not saying much) that I like to have a 1 bar common 1 bar rare, while he has all 3 bars

and I still kick his butt                              
I am the nincompoop, I eat atomic bombs for breakfest, fusion bombs for lunch, and anti-matter bombs for dinner

I just hope they don't explode

Last one standing is realy good. The best game type to truly prove your self as the best at the game, or the worst.

Land rush is ok for that to but its better for team games or long games.

                             You mean kinda like Colony Builder 2: Plymouth Starship?

Where they give you the velicles, and the resources to build a base?

That would be kinda cool.

space race is fun because you can ally with the person and help them out, than send a secreate raiding party to their cc, and they wouldnt have any defence lol

but just to be fair, you would give them a new cc, but I would still win lol

land rush is great cuz u can get loads of ore quick, in a good land rush game ur have 3 vech facs all supported with enuff ore to be producing units.
cuz of the 100 build mark evey1 will have a 3bar and not long in2 the game evey1 will usealy get a 2bar.
makes great games ;d lynx o fun

i wanted 2 make a map with Pie Chart or Allied Siege map and with the Flood Plain set up. would have been good. i havent been able 2 make n e more maps cuz all the map editors i have used have not seamed 2 load the maps correctly. i have not done much testin tho with the problem and it could probly be fixed.

when I play my friend Josh, I like to keep the games long, I am normally eden and he is normally plymouth, and when we start I get units first, so I start building a line of defence, and I build a mine and smelter on every beacon within that area, and I build more units, killing off his, and making my line expand, giving me more room to build smelters, eventially I get my line to his base, and I take over all his beacons except for 1 common and 1 rare, just to be nice, so here he is, with a huge army surounding him, and all he has is a little bit of ore

he usually kills himself at that point lol

I playd like that on the map Colliseem, and I had at least 20 smelters, and 9 vec facts, all prudicing emp and thor tigors at the same time lol
