Had at least 10 good games with furykiller today. I won some, I lost some. There were some really memorable fights, and I just happened to have recorded one of them. GG's Fury. Well Played!

the other day i had the privilage of doing a 2v2 strat with HyperFighter, SK-8080, and Spl. Eagles. It was CCA (HF and SK) vs NSDF (myself and Eagles).
The map was biometal run. I spawned NE while Eagles spawned SW. I raced to the middle and set up a silo, then doubled back to bring my fac, and later my rec, to the set of 2 gysers closest to my base. I had erected 3 silos and 5 scavs with a substantial amount of scrap. Just as my recycler was arriving at my new base, where i was building a barracks, supply and tanks, Hyper appeared south of me. We engaged in feirce combat while i engaged with APCs, scouts, tanks, and bombers, doing everything i could to hold hyper off. I also was working on upgrading my base, but most of it was just rebuilding stuff that got taken down. i was calling for help and eventually Eagles arrived with tanks and scouts. We both fought hard and were gaining ground on Hyper when i died. fortunately, i made it back, and kept things going for a lil. as the fighting was moving forwards, i kept having to rebuild my bombers for rec defense. but at a crucial moment, when no bombers were there (they kept being distracted by hyper's forces), SK-8080 showed up with an army of czars. my defenses rec and fac were backstabbed, and my army was sandwiched between Hyper and SK. All of my prod units and most of my offensive units fell, and i lost another life. meanwhile, Eagles, with no support, was also destroyed. It was revealed to me later that SK-8080 had actually destroyed Eagle's base already before coming to mine. Hyper was merely a distraction. It was a beautifully GG, filled with excellent commanding of AI by all players.

The beginning of that game was intense, after I did my buildup, I "stumbled" upon fury's base. After a few mins of fighting, I clearly had the upper hand and was pushing down fury. I almost had him where I wanted when Spl Eagles came in from the flanks. That was the turning point of the game. They were gaining control of the larger part and I was doing my best to hold them off, but I wasn't winning. Sk tried to interject in the fighting but the Americans pushed us back. Golems and APCs, and bombers, I threw what I can but I wasn't getting enough scrap to provide adequate supplies for the CCA War Machine. I was advancing, but in the opposite direction. They were close at one point to getting in my base of operations, but some units(and golems) were decisional. Then Spl came about and sniped me. What I didn't know until my 2nd snipe was that he was lying in fury's silo, sniping anything that was red. It wasn't getting better, it wasn't until i see the message: "furykiller: ok i give up", that I realize that Sk destroyed the NSDF production units and gave me the chance I was looking for, the rest of the American battalion was quickly wiped out. GG! Well played!

From what I can remember:
It was a great game! I started off in/near my base (keeping scavengers away from Fury's silo) and built up my offense. I was beginning to position defenses when Fury called for help. I took my squadron and raced across to help out. Arriving at Fury's base, my tanks and I took out Hyper's frontal assault, then I turn and Sk is flying in with his tanks and fighters. We fought his attack off, then focused back to Hyper's bombers, tanks, APCs, and a few Golems. Meanwhile, I have run out of pilots so I order my constructor to near the ground to build a barracks, and then realize it's gone from the menu. I look and a nice red line is going from the minimap, up along the side, to #5 on the menu. Recycler lost, and shortly after the Factory ate dirt as well. (Armory spared ) I had to make due with my tank and a few remaining forces that were low on ammo and didn't last long. After a quick encounter with the CCA attacks I also was ejected and decided to bunker down by the supply as a sniper. I focused on the APC pilots that were deployed, then on the non-AI CCA tank (also known as Hyper) and managed to get a shot on the hard point. Next I sniped a few scavengers of his that were scavenging on the front lines. Soon I moved to the other side of the supply, and Hyper came along to destroy Fury's remaining gun tower. I sniped him again , then proceeded to take his tank, which also was being damaged by the gun tower still, and unfortunately had only 4 or 5 bars of hit points left. It was enough to take out one of Sk's tanks (Sk had magically appeared with a new squad and taken out Fury's remaining production units) and half of another before I was caught and ejected and soon chased down and kilt. We hung around a bit longer after that, but that was basically the end of the game.

Hey boys and girls... XD... Yeah been a long time since I hopped onto here... So I will skip straight to the warstory. Cerberus vs Assman Was a short game, but sweet. Game was on small 1v1 map, forget the name. So the chaos began about 5 mins in. I am rustier than the relics on Venus, so I had a slow startup. However, assman musta still had his dog allergy, cuz he started scrapmaking about 2 mins in. I was watching this wondering why he was blowin up his own ships till I remembered that "oh yeah, rigs make lots of scrap". So if I was still in my prime, I woulda rushed him with fighters and a few tanks and totalled his sorry butt, but as it was, I just started to build more. At the 4 min mark, I started to do some exploring in a rocket tank outfitted with double hornets. Had a pair of fighters flying with me, and my rig for building. Got to the middle, and lo and behold found this nice little scrap complex fully equipped with silos and scavs. So I got out and started some sniping and had my rig build a barracks. Got 4 free scavs and then recycled all of his buildings }:). I don't think he liked that a whole bunch though, cuz about 15 seconds later, this armada of tanks and scouts shows up and I have to run like NUTS. Got back to base mostly safe. Lost my rig (well lost is the wrong word, actually recycled it and the stolen scavs, plus my fighters, cuz they were too slow). So assman sets up shop outside my base and brings in some howies. I think he was under the impression I was just gonna let him bombard me to death... shows how rusty I was flying XD. So I let his howies get into position, and use my 3 sitting next to my MUF to total them. More scrap for me. After that, he brings in his massive force of tanks... straight at my GTs... I don't care how rusty I may have looked, he HAS to know I had re-armed them with blasts... he was reminded of that 4 tanks and a scout later XD. After his full scale and rather funny retreat, I take all that wonderful scrap and then set out with my MUF and armory to the ridge behind his base. Thank god for navs. I have no idea where he was, but I somehow manage to get both of those and some turrets safely into position about 500m from his base. Then I am faced with a hard decision. To pour golems down his base throat, or go with APCs... In the end, I use a pair of howies to destroy his power plants, and then ram 4 apcs down his recs throat. After his rec drops, assman and 8 tanks show up and ruin my little party, but I manage to fly into his base and take out his rig and MUF. My ONE golem manages to destroy all the scavs (how it survived 9 tanks, I will never know), and then I get nova'd and have to hitch a ride on one of his tanks. I get back to base, and then he "ggs" and leaves. Was short, nuts, and fun. What should be noted is that there were parts that I omitted, mostly cuz I was getting totally owned during them. But in the space of about 20 minutes, something like 8 MUFs and 20 odd rigs were destroyed, all in combat. Not to mention a whole bunch of vehicles ranging from scavs to tugs to turrets to howies to bombers (yes, the tugs were mine... what can I say, I like moving walls XD). A fun and good game. And I won by luck lol... if he had been back at his base, I am sure I would probably have lost that game. But him rushing my gts and then not being back at home when I was there were his only mistakes. Everything else, he played good. So yeah, was fun . Need to play more though, get the rust out XD.

To ensure that this grand topic isn't lost, I have one warstory to share with you all. HyperFighter vs. furykiller vs. RustyGuns
The map was Ice Ice, 3 lives. I was CCA, Fury and Rusty were NSDF.
The game began with me having north spawn, Rusty having southeasten spawn, and Fury having the Southwestern spawn. After initial buildup I took a quick scouting and decided I would try to kill Rusty quick. He already attempted sniping on fury and was enroute back to his base when I intercepted his ship and got him airborne. Then I rushed to Rusty's base to find a crapload of minelayers, with a few scouts at his recycler. My few wingmen and APCs couldn't do much against his mines and base without getting blown to bits, nevertheless I engaged. The attack was a complete failure, I barely got any kills and the mines messed up my APC soldiers.
Before the battle ended I noticed a bunch of red on my Western flank. I realized it was Fury and quickly returned to base. However, due to my failed offensive I didn't have much scrap to fortify my base. Then the fireworks started. I had a few damaged tanks and fighters, and 2 new APCs. At my chokepoint we engaged and I launched my APCs and he did the same. In the end he loses a few ships and I survive, though I took some losses as well. I take the scrap that was left and I continued to fortify my base.
Then Rusty returns and applies his pressure and I scramble to save what I can. I'm losing buildings left and right as both Fury and Rusty are attacking on two fronts. Fury threw howitzers into the equation but I dispatched with them. Then Rusty comes in and attacks me from my other front. It was madness. I was still gathering scrap but my units were quickly getting beaten up. A couple of golems and guntowers were crucial. I had to switch tanks multiple times because my ships were getting battered and beaten with every engagement. I somehow managed to hold my position just outside the chokepoint, but it was a very tenuous position. Scrap was coming in very slow and I was losing a lot of scavengers, but neither side managed to gain a major advance. This state of chaos would last for most of the game.
Rusty ends up using up a lot of scrap and eventually is forced to go on 1-man missions to kill my guntowers. My golems helped out in a pinch and he became more of an annoyance. Furykiller on the other hand managed to get a fair share of the scrap on his side, but our fighting continued to be stalemated. The good news is that I was now starting to pick up in the scrap collection and was amassing my forces. My counterattack began and bit by bit fury's outpost was being struck down.
It was at this time that both combatants gave up their offensive against me and decided to attack eachother. Fury was on 1 life, Rusty was on 2. I set up howitzers on my Eastern flank prepared to assault Rusty. Then the battle between Rusty and Fury began. They pretty much were beating the tar out of each other. I destroyed Rusty's Eastern Front and moved to survey the damage at his base. Fury lost his last life but Rusty lost most of his units and a lot of scrap was on the ground. I then spot Rusty as a pilot and quickly take it out. He then respawns while I kill off his scavengers. One of them explodes near him and he takes damage. He then attempts to snipe me but I end up finishing him.

Makes me wonder why they didn't finish you off. And yeah, targetting rusty early on was a good idea, cuz he tends to build up slow and isn't that great a dogfighter. However, you did make a huge mistake with that early assault, probably cost you the momentum you needed, and told both your opponents that you were weak and easy prey. Hence why they attacked. Something you might have wanted to try was my tug wall tactic. Put a wall of tugs in front of your gts, will keep them alive for a lot longer, since enemy tanks and bombers tend to aim low, and as a result will hit the tugs. The best part is, cuz they are still hitting enemy units, they will not retarget. You will probably lose all your tugs, but they will protect you from all but howies and enemy commanders. Also, aim for the tanks that are aiming high, cuz those are usually enemy commanders, and we all know how important it is to kill off the lead tank (unless it's assman or jenns). But I liked that warstory. The only mistake those two made was letting you live. If they had killed you, that probably would have made their survival increase. Instead you did what you normally do and wiped them clean. But sounds like it was a gg.

By the time they stopped attacking me and went to eachother, I managed to re-secure my front, and was starting plans to finish Rusty. The threat of those two was no where near as big as it was early game.

I was thinking Rusty would've made a big move and then Fury would finish me off. I slowed down Rusty but I did screw myself over. Plus with Fury compromising my position during that attack didn't help.

When scrap is low, tugs are never an option.

Like I said, I somehow managed to maintain my position. Rusty was pretty much starved and Fury knew he wouldn't do too well trying to attack me head-on with Rusty ready to snipe out a unit here and there. I wouldn't say they let me live, I'd say I "persauded" them to attack eachother.

I still say they let you live by not being smart enough to finish you off early.
Early game I had a small force, which is why I tried to kill Rusty, which didn't do good. Fury attacked almost immediately after I return from that failed attack. I doubt they would've been able to finish me off like that, but how I managed to actually have enough to get back into the game is what shocks me, especially during that 2 front battle.
