As per the video, Fortress does not require a nerf. Okay? ... Okay. Thank you and good evening.

Every single drn video is a salve to my burning need for mech battles and smooth narration. Thank you once again!

You are far too kind Zuul! Thanks for watching as always and helping feed* (edit - spelling!) the algorithm too.

Another great game, real back and forth watching the tides come crashing in into a rushing recede as it was very win lose repeat. Other than the missed shield on the first missile turn which you and Editor DRN beat yourself up over i think a great game. The only thing on the board that was really a threat to Fortresses were the high level teched out Arclights, and as you said, that little bit of RNG with perfect timed shield Forts blocking the Oil. I'm trying to get better at the wonderful narrative word-play you are able to do live in game. The thunderous marching of fangs and chittering legs of crawlers diving in the thick of combat, knowing full well their part to play, under the cover of shields and earth trembling firepower of the Fortresses. The final charge breaking through and bringing an end the creator of all, until next time. Edits are on point, easy to follow, i would have totally missed that backline mission im guessing was placed for the Rhino drop. Wishing you the best of luck and all the Sledgehammers!

Thanks dude! Grew up reading Warhammer battle reports from magazines in the 90s where a lot of games were abstracted out into stories. So instead of saying "we took the objective on turn 2" or "so and so failed his saving roll" they'd make it a narrative experience with a journey and a story but also some reflection on choices made and what they could've done better in the game. Always loved that layer of imagination and storytelling within the gaming experience. Played most of our games as kids with no money using imaginary models or proxy random everyday objects like coins to represent models we didn't own. Sometimes when it feels right I'll let that side breathe in the moment and experience the chaos of the battlefield in my mind's eye rather than remain in the observant analytical side which can be a bit cold and detached. It's fun to see and understand both the "what" and the "why" of the battle unfolding in front of our eyes. At the end of the day giant mechs blasting each other to bits with lasers and rockets is awesome!

i love your storytelling, it's joyful! :D and thanks for all the tactical insights -gold

Thanks Paul, compliments like these always make my day! Put a lot of effort into both playing the game and editing the videos so it's great to know it's worth it! Thanks for watching as always.

Great stuff as usual. That round 6 board flip was unexpectedly delicious. 🍲

Was a very fun game! Still live in fear of Arclight carry so probably focus in on it too much but do find it's very handy to come into a game mentally prepared with an "if x, then y" strategy in your back pocket. Good luck with the tournies today! Might play the American cup if I can finish editing tomorrow's video in time to get an early night tonight and then get up super early to play.

I need to say for an ex SupCom player this.... is so great to watch, good old mechanical on mechanical unit violence, with a logical explanation. Wonderful content.

@Drone_101 I could have guessed cause how you explained some things really really reminded me of my old SupCom Ts chats when I was trying to just win. I am really on to try this game and, of course, subscribe for more amazing content.

Thanks! Feel I've been lucky enough to get to live and appreciate the wonderful marvel that is enjoying games against people from all over the world and everyone from this community is so supportive and kind. Can spend my morning coffee discussing the day's weather in Kyoto while playing one opponent, and then my evenings hearing about the plans my friends in the States have for the rest of the day ahead of them. Hope you have a great day!

Everyone knows red is three times the speed. Yes. Everyone. You are definitely not outing yourself.

Damn, i really thought "this will be the game where DRN is nailed by his opoonent" and then he somehow manages to clutch it Correct me if I'm wrong, but going arclight carry is a mistake, is it not? Specjfically going for the anti air, since you're paying 600 + the normal upgrade cost while your enemy doesn't have much in terms of air besides some phoenixes, menaing that it would be more cost effective to as an example get sniper with AA specialization (to target air instead of ground units too)

@Drone_101

Yep - we both made mistakes this game. You could argue it's wrong for me to match Arclight Range on my Arclights when we're already behind on tempo and levels on them. For Bearlike I think it's less than optimal to pay that +600 Gold tax to get a fourth tech on them when he had Marksmen standing right behind them that could take the exact same Tech. And it's actually a better tech on Marskmen as it gives both bonus Damage and Range vs aerial units for the MM but NOT the Arclights. The only advantage to having AA on the Arclights is if you think your opponent is going Wasps and you want to kill them quickly en-mass. But even then it's probably better to go Fortress with AA Barrage or Mustang with AA to have more variety in the final composition. Single unit heavy builds will generally lose to a balanced Counter build like you see here. Hope that makes sense!
