In honour of the last replay I have made the following summary replay with music.

Please note, the music may be offensive to those of a sensitive nature and definitely don't play it with kids in the room

Thanks for the record yando, always greatly appreciated, you do a great job.

While i know that part of my defeat should be attributed to not ever playing 3.13 before, and not playing in 4 months, and my movement issues, i still just felt like i got beaten very very badly.

Boggz, just seemed to have me from the start, i got to comment that the intrepids, seemed to be doing very very good, just beating the crap out of me, i almost felt like the kvorts have lost a bit of their edge idk maybe thats just me.

Those warpins tho, omg, those were what really hurt me, free ships for boggz,

All in all, i just felt like i got way overwhelmed, i was trying to get up a fleet from what i had used before, and from what i had heard works, kbjeas and kvorts, (since brels suck? is that still true?) but they didnt seem to do so good for my defending, boggz was just in to many places, so i couldnt expand my mining, or go attack his other minings.

I just tried to do the best with what i had, which i actually think i did okay, taking as many ships as i could with my small klignon fleet, i mean i did get that vet.

So thats my thoughts bout the game, i just need to familiarize myself with the new patch.  Get back into my rythm, then ill actually be able to do good, and make a worthy yando record.

Funniest part of the commentary by yando, was the first part, when he said,:

"oh and it looks like ray is going into his tritanium mining, maybe this is just a stratagy that he always does"

in reality, i was going im gonna die, i cant remeber which mining to pick

and then he said

"oh looks like ray is doing some..... scouting? with his construction ship?"

yeah, that was pretty stupid of me, i was trying to figure out the new staryard for klingons, and i let the construct go to far.....

anyways thanks again

I'll give the benefit of the doubt and assume you are talking about the recorded game you had with Boggz a few months back?

Ray is referring to a match he and I played just a day or two ago.  He had never played 3.1.3 and was eager for Yandon to record a rematch of Feds vs. Klingons that he had very happily won a while back.

  Needless to say ... I fed-smashed the shit out of him.

  Lesson:  even if  you can't play it, read about the new patch before you play

the replay is up i just watched it, yando just doent have the link up yet,

and your right boggz, that game a few months back was very fun, i mean we had fricken sovys and negvarhs

part of it was i didnt think that 3.1.3 had changed that much, i think maybe more of it was the fact that i havent played for 4 months...

EDIT:  Part of Ray's difficulty also was, during that first battle by his expansion, I was also destroying his dilithium mining which Yandon didn't manage to see .  That set him back a lot and hurt both of our micro for the left side battle.


Well @ Yandon, when Boggz pointz out how drunk he iz, expect some mis-micro as he forgets where his new ships are .

   And yes, Ray, I would not take "lessons" from this match as you say you like to do.  You need to familiarize yourself with the changes because you were making mistakes that don't even have anything to do with 3.1.3 changes.  Tri moon beginning for Klingons?  Miiiiiistake .

  Anyway, kbq/kvort beginning is just fine, but you have to have the resources to make it work properly.

  Another thing about Klingons now is that the beginning yard is VERY cheap and multiples can be made at an expansion or even at the main.  That way you can have double BoP yards if you wanna make kvorts/Brel (although almost anything you need a B'rel for the kvort can do) .  Same weaponry, different passives and weaker stats.

I forgot to mention that too, you were destoring my dilithium, and by the time yandon had panned back to my dilithium i had a miner or two back up mining,

All i mean boggz, is that replays help me to see more of the map, and usually yando will drop coments about what ships to use or not to use, i do realize that i totally got my ass kicked in this game tho, and i wont be able to take as much from a game like this then one where i actualyl played good

also thanks for the tip on the yardi will keep that in mind, and that would help a great deal when trying to move forward

a question: i generally use tawroja, for the kvort/brel 2 point increase, why would i use martok? and also, is the susa worth it to pick him?

in addition, i know, use the guide...... but, id like to have a more personable answer if possible, at what point should i switch to the mid yard, and whats good to build out of there, i used to go with the sang.... and then maybe vorcha

oops, i almost forgot bout this, the qaw duj, does that come out of the starbase with the specials, or im assuming i have to reaserch them? is it worth it to do that in early game, or has anyone experimented with that?

thanks guys!

I did fight to the end, and as you may or may not have seen, i took alot of there ships with me, quite honestly i almost wish that klingon ships had ramming ability, that way i coulda rammed that damned defiant with my vet at the end

a question: i generally use tawroja, for the kvort/brel 2 point increase, why would i use martok? and also, is the susa worth it to pick him?

martok's bops are pulse armed, so they are better for harassing with. taqs torps miss miners, they are still good for harassing, but martok has the edge on miner killing.

martok's other strength is teching up fast. with cheaper large yards. this means he can make battle yard earlier.

martok's susa pwns borg and stations. so his bops can eat the miners, while his susas eat the stations.

taq has a strong field yard fleet. with good boosts to her bops. so she will stay at field yard until she can afford big yard at an exp usually. thats what i do anyway, i make about 7-14 field yard ships then tech.

so if u want to vorcha rush, then martok is for u. vorcha rush is best used in team games.

oops, i almost forgot bout this, the qaw duj, does that come out of the starbase with the specials, or im assuming i have to reaserch them? is it worth it to do that in early game, or has anyone experimented with that?

the qawduj built from the kahless station has longer build time and is the same ship basically. it helps against intrep/bug spam as its another support ship out on the field. plus the qawduj is generally useful anyway. make a couple and tech to polaron field, its awesome. building it from kahless station doesnt give u access to level 2 and 3 specials.

if u are making vorchas from battle yard u can make qawduj from kahless station too. even without specials its a generally nice ship, its starting special is good.

EDIT: there's no place like spam

Yes.
The S2 is HELL for Borg. Especially for Assim Avatar as he has no real counter to it. Even Scubes die like flies to S2s with some Bugs.

I guess Clint played too much with me.   
Nicely done.
