Wow, those steath tank things are brutal... Can't touch stationary defence, but they are hell to push forward against.

That is a nice replay, great army...but why nobody gone air?

I hope such replay will make people try UH.

i was lacking Energy in a big part of the game, and after that i was missin the resource "time".... as min3mat was knocking on my door all the time..

couldn't be assed to go air, it would have left me open (and NoiZe obviously didn't have a choice) and is easy to counter (in UH) besides land battles against NoiZe are so much damn fun! always a battle to survive :D

it's a pity but i don't think UH will get much more ppl, because ppl really like their big ass level 2 units which makes all level 1 unit useless.. it seems ppl rather have a few big units instead of hundreds of units..

But i do agree More ppl should play UH, way better game imo..

Meh, i like UH. I don't like OTA. UH don't have 20 worthless units in it and i love LLT.

Oh, and pepole should also play less metal maps and more picushion.

Well, I think the reason people prefer fewer level 2 units over many level 1 units is the management. I mean, you can't exactly mircomanage a few hundred peewees, you know? But you definitely can micromanage say, 20-30 bulldogs, and it's definitely easier to mircomanage 2 or 3 krogoths.

so where is the challenge in that then :D

oh, I'm not saying I like it, nor is it a good thing, but it's probably one of the reasons people do it. Personally I like large armies, even back in the day when the unit limit was stuck at 250, I liked having 150 unit armies. Kind of funny when you run into a battle though, you lose any little control you had. Spring should be able to do much better in this respect, especially with the excellent hotkey editor, and group AIs. I don't like microing. It makes me not able to focus on the overall strategy, and I lose.

That's not true for everyone

Gameplay speaking, the diferent scales (diference between small and bigger units) between oTA/UH and XTA gives each some unique and subtle benefits and disadvantages. It's not entirely ├é┬½a smaller scale is better├é┬╗.
