Spring RTS Engine

what was the most chaotic battle you've ever been in like?

For me, it was on MetalHeck when my ally was pounding the enemy's base with Tremors and I sent in a bunch of medium assault tanks into the enemy's base while shells rained down on that base.

lets here your chaotic stories

I've seen a couple team games where one side collapses on each team at roughly the same time. Its then a race to see who can march through the back of the enemies base the fastest. I remember one game in particular on comet catcher where it started north vs south. North broke through on the west side and south broke through on the east side. A couple players were wiped out but each side managed to stabalise and prevent their back ranks from being wiped out, so it ended up looking like a standard east vs west set up.

My game on CC against hellspawn that was in that "Tricky Little Tricks" video was about the most intense game I can remember being in. If I remember right the game went for almost an hour and in the whole time, even minutes before the end it was still dead even.

Each side came within a whisker of winning the game so many times and yet we both pulled through and kept at it. We both went through about every major CC stratagem in the book through the game. T1 fighter commander assasination, T2 air rushing, Bladewings, Rushing for far corners, Bombing solar farms on the map edge ect.

Very late into the game I realised that hellspawn was in a much better position than me, and he'd shown he could counter any standard CC tactic I could throw at him. Thats when I decided to do something that was unheard of in 1v1 CC and get half my build power back to my base and build a nuke.

I took a guess at where his economy would be most centralised based on some old map info from my bombers and fired a nuke there, hoping to cripple his factory production, then by some luck his commander was guarding a lab I didnt even know was there and the nuke landed dead-on his com.

I was so drained after the game I felt like i'd ran a marathon and I dont think I played another game of spring for a week.

Replay::::> UF ----> UF Replay ----> ME... -----> ME

replays.unknown-files.net seems a bit broken at the moment. If you really want I can upload it, but you'll need an old version of spring to watch it (and AA2.11)

Yes please :) Sounds like a fascinating game
