****************************************************************************** ** ** ** H'Pak Match Summary for 2002 1027: ** ** ** ****************************************************************************** _____________________________________________________________________________ 021026 2201 BDTv Amsterdam KoH - TS Wins Amsterdam / Dwarven Dutch Holiday FFA 4: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me! Dang there is a *lot* of rain on this one! And it's *not* Legendary! (Maybe that's the problem) TS and VR go at it at the Flag while Baak runs into NKI and a couple of TS Dorfs hanging out by the Canal... Baak can't seem to stay alive, while TS and VR are both defending the Flag to de det - both seem extremely focused having to deal with only one Dorf! NKI tries to come in, but TS keeps just enough time on the Flag and NKI keeps VR from taking it by getting his last Dorf. Good one! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021026 2216 BDHT.BrokenArr StB - VR Wins BrokenArrow_v1 / Six Broken Arrows (6 team light) FFA 5: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake If you've got a Dorf, *don't* try to move him where Baak did across that one part of the river (where it forks) - the Dorfs *can't* cross it there! DOH!! NKI and HS get into it - meanwhile, VR has grabbed the Ball and is defending. Suddenly VR is defending from all sides! Baak is picking off his scouts and he's fending off waves of HS troops! But VR's Mortar Dorf may make all the difference, pounding a TS final charge and then taking out most of Baak's Zerks at the end game. Nicely done! _____________________________________________________________________________ #+021026 2232 BDHT.Green Par StB - VR Wins Green Paradise v1.1 / Green Hell 2v2v1: Two Saks & HedgeSnake, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me! & Baak'choy lol! For some reason Baak is convinced that VR randomly joined the TS/HS team - until the post-game chat! lol! No wonder there were *so many* TS/HS troops! ;) VR does a *beautiful* job of pulling his troops out and letting TS/HS and NKI/Baak go at it - while everyone converged on the Ball and *especially* in the critical last seconds of the game, where VR just cleaned up the wounded enemy troops with his Zerks that were hovering just out of range. Very nice, VR! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021026 2249 BDHT.Redsand_v StB - NKI Wins Redsand_v1 / Red Sand, Black Blood FFA 5: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake VR takes it and gets sandwiched by just about everybody - NKI seems to inflict the most damage though. Then NKI is hit by HS, but HS runs smack into TS. Comes down to a *close* ending - Baak has been circling around for a better position and to avoid being sandwiched, but throws a bottle right into the flank of his Brigands in the closing seconds! Doh!! This could make all the difference, as he gets shredded by TS and NKI at the Ball! (NKI does a *nice* job of keeping his Zerks until the last second) Oh man! If TS's JMan had kept on the Ball it would have been all his! Baak's renegade Dorf takes out NKI's final Zerks - but they tagged it last and no one contests! Nice NKI! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021026 2303 BDHT.sleepyho StB - TS Wins sleepyho / Sleepy Hollow (slug-O-rama) FFA 5: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake Baak starts with it in the center and moves it near the West Bridge (sound familiar?). TS comes in with a *beauty* of a shot, but Baak holds firm for a little longer. TS and Baak continue the battle on the bridge while VR starts to pick at TS from the other side - Baak takes the opportunity, but fails to follow-up on it - dropping the Ball down the chasm instead of moving it across the bridge! Doh! TS wisely moves to the Ball, while Baak defends - err.. the hill?!? - and can't move because the Ball will become uncontested - which it does! Nicely played, TS! _____________________________________________________________________________ *021026 2322 BDHT.Going_to_ StB - NKI/HS Win (against TS/VR/Baak) Going_to_Town / Going to Town 2 Team: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake This is *such* a great map! Seems to always end *close!!* TS/VR/Baak suffer a *nasty* Friendly Fire incident that is actually caused by a double-pus auto-fire from two Ghols that Baak brought up near the battle without watching them! They do a nice job of taking out the NKI/HS Zerks *but* the pus triggers an unexploded Dorf Bottle right next to the TS/VR/Baak units - causing total destruction! Doh! From there NKI/HS seem to work as a team just a little bit better than TS/VR/Baak - slowly picking away and making gains - especially when their JMan takes out the TS/VR/Baak Dorf! Nicely played! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021026 2334 BDHT.Gimble in Ral - VR Wins Gimble in the Wabe FFA 5: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake VR and HS go at it, with NKI coming in as well. Baak decides to defend flags, but gets seriously weakened when TS clamps down on him from multiple sides - this is TS's *last* Flag to capture btw! Baak keeps TS from taking it, but forgets to move his Ghol Horde around the map! Doh! VR comes in and *just* takes it from Baak! TS almost takes it too with his Ghols! Close one! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021026 2344 BDHT.Hedgerow StB - Baak Wins Hedgerow / Bustle In Your Hedge-row (wacky) FFA 5: Baak'choy, Two Saks, vinylrake, Don't Shoot Me!, HedgeSnake ... Nothing like a little Hedgerow Wacky on Legendary! ;) HS *wails* on VR - dang! ;) TS hits two of Baak's Dorfs with his Warlock, one of which survives *two* Warlock Fireballs! Man this guy is *tough*!! Keep an eye on him too... He goes no a total Vengeance Quest for his lost buddy, and nearly wipes out TS's army on his own! lol! Meanwhile, HS is getting in some good shots on Baak, but Baak decides it's time he won one tonight! ;) Lucky for Baak NKI started on the other side of the map, but Baak isn't going to let him get near the Ball! FUNK: Check out the Damage Spread on this one! Baak racked up 500, VR -198!! _____________________________________________________________________________ 021026 2355 BDT Leggo II KoH - NKI Wins Leggo II Arena / Leggo II Arena (FFA) FFA 3: Baak'choy, Two Saks, Don't Shoot Me! Fast game! lol! We (or at least TS and Baak) were reminded that when the Mechs are destroyed, they *explode* a few seconds later! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ 021027 0005 BDT Leggo II StB - Baak Wins Leggo II Arena / Leggo II Arena (FFA) FFA 3: Baak'choy, Two Saks, Don't Shoot Me! Baak seems to have suddenly come alive and figured out how to use some of the Leggo Units! Love the comment from Baak's first Kamakaze Guy after he gets in a hit - lol!! _____________________________________________________________________________ 021027 0015 BDT Dead ManC KoH - Baak Wins Dead Man's Chest FFA 3: Baak'choy, Two Saks, Don't Shoot Me! Nice little Ghol Dance at the Flag - NKI and TS get into it early, leaving both weakened. Baak and TS have an Archer battle and Baak takes the Flag. TS does a *nice* job of wiping out almost all of Baak's Warriors, but *almost* is the key - one remaining Warrior helps out Baak's nearly-dead JMan who is engaged in a fierce one-on-one battle with TS's JMan - it's *close*! But Baak keeps the Hill... _____________________________________________________________________________ 021027 0023 BDT The Blade KoH - NKI Wins The Blade Garden v 1.0 / The Blade Garden [Brute Force] FFA 3: Baak'choy, Two Saks, Don't Shoot Me! A bloodbath - Baak is hitting NKI's Trow, but TS is hammering Baak's flank and the resulting TS and Baak battle leaves NKI too strong for TS. _____________________________________________________________________________ 021027 0033 BDT Venice ^ KoH - TS Wins Venice sakcannon_warlock FFA 3: Baak'choy, Two Saks, Don't Shoot Me! Baak sneaks some Ghols in on NKI's Mortar Dorfs, but NKI gets sweet revenge by Ghol'ing Baak's Archers and *continually* wiping out Baak's Warriors with his Sak Cannons! Meanwhile, TS always seems to have *someone* at the Flag! ;) TS and Baak go at it on the sidelines - Baak's single Cannon is worthless until it *finally* gets a nice shot in, taking out two TS Cannons and two TS Archers - after that it does manage to take out a large block of NKI's Warriors using an old NKI technique! ;) Despite NKI's nice Cannon work, TS is all over the Flag! _____________________________________________________________________________ +021027 0102 BT The Baron^ S-C - We Won! The Baron sakcannon_warlock Co-op 2: Baak & Two Saks Decided to try this one "Heroic", and Baak quickly finds out there are now Dark Archers in the Baron's Castle! Doh! Good teamwork on this one - TS is wiping out the Baron's forces, while Baak watches for The Baron. It looks like he is going to sneak out but Baak and then TS manage to scare him enough to keep him away from the door! Nice! When it looks like all is lost, the Baron runs into those Archers just waiting by the door, and they *just* get him! (As TS said, he was too busy begging! lol!) Actually it looks like he freezes in a moment of terror just before he expires... Good one! :) _____________________________________________________________________________ +021027 0126 BT Gonen's B^ S-C - We Lost Gonen's Bridge Dwarf Rockets 2 Co-op 2: Baak & Two Saks TS is *rockin'* in control of the lone Rocket Dwarf in this one - until those multi-colored Ghols that is! ROFL!! Check out the Rebound From Hell, followed by the post-game "in your face" rebound! LOL!! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ Legend: * = Game Of The Week + = Game Of The Week Runner Up $ = Deciding Game to win The Sacred Sword & Axe of Shaal'a Manx ^ = Deciding Game to defend The Sacred Sword & Axe of Shaal'a Manx # = Deciding Game to win The Shield of Honor s = Slide Show Notes: NKI is "Don't Shoot Me!" and Baak is Baak'choy in this one. ______________________________________________________________________________
