Typical 1 on 1 game

Hi, i'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such games as when I kicked your ass today, or you're going to get your ass kicked by me tommorow. Today we are going to analyze today's game where I got to play my first 1 on 1 game versus a live level 4 player named FrozenRock.


Encounters

There were about 3 real encounters with each other before the game ended. From what I noticed, FrozenRock never expanded, upgraded, or gone beyond basic footment as his primary army. There were a priest or two in his aresnal, but it really doesn't help much unless they casted inner fire. As pictured to the right, you can see my orc town being well structured in case of any attacks. I didn't even have to teleport to of wiped out his entire army. Two towers, and a few burrows that were strategically placed managed to hold down the fort against his level 4 paladin, dozen footmen, and 2 priests.

A race to the end

Now lets looks at my attack on his town, which by the way was happening at the same time as when he was attacking my town. Earlier I scouted his front and detected 3 towers guarding it. I was smart and used a backdoor since it had no defense whatsoever and just started to pick things clean left and right. The player who has no more standing structures is considered to be eliminated from a game. You could say that are simultaneous siege on each others towns was a tight race to who will win. All in all it was a good experience, espicially since this was my first time on this map.
