Iwannadie vs bumbleorc
A very short but very sweet strat. As you all know, I have this problem with my firewall which makes my game cut out after about 20-30 minutes. But I was bored, so I decided, ah hell, and joined a strat. It was a 2 player strat, on that map I played hyper the first time (forgive me, I was too frantic to notice map names). I was NSDF as was bumble. To start things off, I deployed my rec, and then started pumping out scavs till I had 4. I noticed a blip on my radar, so I went to the middle and found a B-dog tank and a constructor. I fired my thumper and fire-linked my at and mini. Then I flew in after the thumper and blew the tank. First blood to me. I then totalled the constructor, and had my MUF (which I built during the fight) deploy and then I started spamming like crazy. I had my rec build scouts and my MUF build tanks until I had 4 of both. During this time, I saw nothing of bumble, so I continued on, knowing I was going to freeze soon, but going sui first.
I got my new armory and deployed it, and re-equipped myself and my grizzlies with double-sps, and then got all my razors and all my grizzlies to follow me. I got my constructor and had it build a scrap silo in the middle of the map. Since I had no time for a long strat, I didn't build any barracks nor, did I really build up. So 10 minutes into the game, 9 offensive units, 5 of them souped up stormed bumble's keep. I found a gang of 3 tanks, and 2 bombers and an apc in his base, and 2 scavs wandering around outside. I sicked my scouts on the bombers, and set my tanks to hunt while I started attacking his recycler. My scouts were somehow able to destroy his bombers without dying (ok, so I lost 2 of them...) and then automatically started attacking the other units. My 4 souped up tanks annihilated the 3 regular grizzlies and destroyed the APC. I noticed on grizzly flying away unusually fast, but I ignored it. Just to make sure, I used my last 3 pilots on a pair of turrets and a walker, and hoped if it was the player they would be enough to kill him. During this time, I finished off his rec, and my units destroyed his MUF and armory. I then set all of them to hunt, and cleaned up the scavs and remaining buildings. I found his tank in the corner of the map, and destroyed it with my now 3 buddy tanks (lost one cause of the bombers).
Without his rec, MUF, and no scavs, he had lost, so he said GG and left. A good match, and all under 20 minutes.
Ironically my comp froze on the main menu and I had to restart.

I don't seem to ever find you in lobby when you make these games We're gonna have to fix that. BTW: Couldn't you just turn off ZA while on Bz, and turn it back on after your done?

ok... hyper... let me clear some stuff up for you. First of all, I am on at the oddest of hours. So it is completely understandable you never see me in the lobby. Secondly, ZA is the primary firewall on this comp. If I turn it off, I might as well hang a sign that says: "Look, free comp! Hack and trash away at will!" So as I said before, you will have to wait for our rematch...  sorry... but it will be soon (laptop should be en route as I type this)

1. Uninstall ZA. 2. Install COMODO. 3. Stop being so paranoid.

Cerberus vs Biohazard vs Assman vs Lahandsay vs Bdogtank54 vs Valak
Map is Moon v1.5
This was a reallly really REALLY long strat... (gives me a headache trying to remember all of it).
So Biohazard and Assman have this strat going on, and I hop in (after crashing my game twice). The first thing I notice is that there is no scrap anywhere near my starting point. I think "Ok, that is lame..." and start scrapmaking by blowing my constructor to smithereens 8 or 9 times. This whole time, bio and ass are chatting, with me occasionally adding points to their convo. This is the part where Lahand joins. The first thing he does is come after me, and his regular Czar vs my re-armed Grizzly... well, I think we know what happens there... So I then blast his brains out after he lands, giving me another kill. At this point, assman sends some suicidal scavengers towards me, which I destroy. Then Bio shows up in a tank which was also souped up, and we have a short fight which ends with him running away. Unfortunately, he dropped some M-curtain mines, so I couldn't destroy him, but him leaving was the idea.
This whole time, I am building up my base slowly, building a supply depot here, a hangar there, and building tanks like nuts. Lahands shows up again, only this time he has some company. I demolish his attack force, and blow his tank (again). Somewhere along this time, Bio shows up again, and with company, again, and starts attacking my MUF. My tanks and I go after his force, and manage to destroy almost all of it, with a few stragglers escaping.
It was around this time that I figured I was getting gang-banged, so I turtled. I built towers near my northern and western perimeter, and lo and behold, lahands shows up... AGAIN... So I exterminate him... AGAIN. Thanks to him, I had lots of scrap, and lots of kills. After this third failed attack, he leaves the game. Then assman shows up with this armada of minelayers and apcs with a souped up tank (I think it had double-MAGS). The APCs eat it, and their soldiers (which for some reason weren't attacking) also get killed. I try to pursue, but the minelayers made that impossible. Annoyed, I repair my tanks, and reload them.
It was at this point in time I get wind that Bio has an army of golems headed in my direction. So I use my HUGE scrap reserve and start pumping out Howies. Around here, bdogtank54 shows up. I hear almost nothing from him, so I ignore it. I have around 7 howies when the walkers get in range. But due to stupid placement on my part, they can't hit the walkers, and are useless. Then disaster strikes. Assman shows up with 10 bombers and starts hitting my recycler. I rush back to that end of the base, but by then it is chaos. About a minute later, all the bombers are dead, but so are all my scavs and my rec.
This is the point where many give up, but I am too damn stubborn so I then get a hold of my situation, and am glad to discover that bio has retreated (granted that would have been the time to move in and destroy me, but whatever). I repair and reload my tanks, and then build tanks to the point where I have 9 of them. I re-equip all of them with dual-sps, and pack up my MUF, Armory and constructor, and leave. Where did I get all the scrap for this, since I had no scavs, and no rec? Simple. I just recycled all my buildings. Bio and I ally at this point, but it doesn't matter. I hide my stuff in his base for a while, and then I have them just wait in a wasteland nearby. Since I am royally pissed at assman, I then go on a solo hunter-killer mission. I fly all the way to his base, and then sneak in and destroy his rec and constructor. He was off killing bdogtank54, and couldn't kill me in time. I escaped his base, and ran smack dab into his attack force. He blows my tank, and then runs me over. I respawn back at my old base, and see 2 scavs. I snipe them, and then call my force back there. I set up shop, and for a few minutes, all is good.
Then assman shows up, and finishes my troops off. The only survivors are a scrap silo, barracks, and a scavenger (which was running north like crazy). I get picked up by my scav and then start running around the map (away from assman's army). By this time, both Bio and bdog have left. Then Valak shows up, and starts setting up. I run to his base, and give him my scav as scrap. I then steal one of his tanks, and run around for a bit, until we ally. Then he gives me a razor, and I stay with him. Assman shows up, but valak and I fight him off (we manage to kill all of his bombers and his tank), and lo and behold, he leaves. So we won... This whole thing took about 3 hours to do...

Cerberus vs Assman vs Valak
Map is Mountain Madness
Assman wanted a rematch from the previous strat, so I started up the match. I deployed my rec, and pumped out 4 scavs as fast as I could. Thankfully, this map had scrap in the immediate area, so I didn't need to lose time scrapmaking. I get my constructor in tow, and head towards the middle. When I get there, I build a silo and call my 4 scavs over. By now, I have a deployed MUF, and an armory under construction. I then have my rec build 2 more scavs, and my MUF starts building tanks. When my rec is done with the scavs, I have it build scouts. I then get my constructor to build a silo behind my base near a large scrap field. At this point I have 4 tanks and 3 razors.
Once I knew where Assman's base was, I drop a nav, and call my army to that point. I wait for a 20 more seconds for the last tank and last 2 scouts, and then with all 10 of them in tow, I head in. I sick all of them on the armory, at the entrance, and when Assman shows up with his tank, he is ejected and killed. Half of my force heads to the MUF and kill the units sitting, whilst I call as many units as I can to attack his rec. The MUF is gone in seconds (that's what happens when you have 6 units attacking it) and the rec drops shortly after. Assman is declared defeated and as my units are cleaning up, he leaves.
I am now alone... but happy with my victory. I call all of my units back to base, and start repairing and reloading. At this point, Valak shows up. I am surprised, but not all annoyed, so I say hi, and as he sets up, I just chat with him. After about 5 minutes, I attack (after ascertaining his location). Truth be told I would have let him have longer, but he started attacking one of my silos, and I couldn't be having that. So my army of 10 units goes charging in, with me in the middle of it. Same old story, but this time, I lose most of my ships. But I get his rec, his MUF and armory, and his constructor as well. His scavs fall shortly after. He respawns and I run him over. He is declared defeated, but leaves and comes back.
He says this time he will beat me, so I give him a few minutes, and then kill him again, same tactic. This time he manages to snipe out one of my tanks and eject me, so I get into a razor, and destroy the now enemy tank, and also destroy the other razor he sniped. He lands, and I kill him. He is defeated again. It should be noted that this was a 2 life match. We exchange our GGs and leave.
Good strat. Granted, I rushed him, but hey, all's fair in love and war.

I'll need to find you for a strat in the future... Making scrap? Hehe... can't wait to see how that will do you any good when you face me  Alas, school has begun, and the horrors of a non-Bz life begin again.

Hyper Hyper Hyper... You have to remember, that was my first REAL strat for a very very long time. And that map has almost no scrap anyways, so it was necessary. But if you play me on a map where there is scrap near the starting point, then you will get a match just as fair as the second strat I put up, the one against assman. Till then, I just get more and more warmed up. I fully intend to give you that rematch we both want. And don't worry, I don't have ZA anymore, so I won't crash on you in the middle of a match. I hope you don't mind an actual opponent

Geppetto & Sporkinator VS All. Map: Nomad 5 lives Geppetto was itching for a good online strat, so he hosted a game. RustyGuns joined and he and Geppetto battled 1 on 1. I joined and began scrap collection. Later AI`yTuH joined and he wasn't doing well, I think he's new. Meanwhile, Geppetto's battle wasn't going so well, so I brought my factory and built an outpost near Geppetto's base. I attacked Rusty's units, but could never find his recycler. Eventually, Geppetto lost his last life, but stayed in game so I could have his allied hangar and anything else that was left. I was hunting for Rusty's base when my recycler fell under attack. I'm not sure who killed it, because I built a scout to defend it and when it blew up, it said I killed it, but there was no defense to make recycler dive possible, so I guess my scout took the last shot by mistake. But that's OK, I don't need a recycler to win a strat. Rusty apparently had taken some big losses, and was attacking in a lone scout. He ran away from my army and I, and I pursued him. He lead me right to his recycler! I brought in my units and began attacking his recycler and nearby turrets. I got ejected from my tank, and was commanding the AI to follow each other so that they would follow through with the attack. His recycler explodes and I land. I try to have my remaining unit pick me up, but I got shot by a turret. Back at my spawn point, I build a new tank, have it pick me up, and equip myself with dual SP and Mortar. I build 4 bombers and have them follow. I find Rusty driving an APC and he deploys pilots. I mortared them. 2 other APCs sent soldiers at me and I killed them with mortar too. I ejected him from his APC and killed him. Rusty snipes my last scavenger and I find his empty turret and quickly spot sniper close by and toss 2 mortars. BOOM! 1 life left for Rusty. I destroy his turret. He enters my empty scavenger which I purposely left there so I could know his position as soon as it disappeared from utility on interface.  I head toward that position and begin firing at him. He ejects! I spot his pilot in the air and order my bombers to attack him. One bomber takes aim but Rusty snipes it and get in it, 3 left. I rush over and eject him from my bomber and order remaining 3 to attack his pilot again. He lands and is murdered by 1 of them. Game over! Taking screen shots in strat is something that distracts me, so I didn't take a ss until the end:  GG!

Geppetto's ping was 17 most of the time, was only 43 at the moment when I pressed F11.

Well, I'm having difficulty, school cut my Bz time in half, and big bro is using only comp. more than usual(perhaps sneaking on to Bz?). I'll most likely be in the lobby Friday, Saturday and Sunday if you're going to be looking for me. Then we'll have a strat to remember.

Hehehe... Will have to remember that. If you really are up for a nice fight, I will probably be on friday, MAYBE sat, but not sunday. I will be there probably around 2-4 AM forum time. But, if you really want, I am on pretty much every day, roughly that time. So just be patient
