PLAY DATES

Halo Wars Play Date

 

 

I don't know what went on in the other lobby but from what I heard it was a good one. Our lobby however was an amazing battle that lasted over an hour and a half. We went at it. It was a great game but in the end, someone always slips up. No matter how evenly matched you are. Second game I got dominated by Fishy and BaconShelf and eventually Boss went down too. Boss beat Bacon and Fishy in the last game!
 

Participants:

DocSpartanO07, skummgummigubbe, GermanShepherdD, BaconShelf, Frankenzer, D-38 Boss, Fishy, Elite, ThomasScott02, SpartanΩMEGΛ, Test subject 67, DN2012

[D-38 Boss]

Last game, Beat Fishy and Baconshelf... Hold your applause...

[Fishy]

I did pretty good! Lol. You missed my 2nd game Drizzy! It was BaconShelf, SpartanΩMEGΛ, and I (Fishy)

VS

GermanShepherdD, Test Subject 67, and D-38 Boss.

 

First to go down was Test Subject 67 (He tried his best to defend but was killed by Fishy and his hunters), a couple seconds later was SpartanΩMEGΛ (He was defeated by GSD with his cobras and ODST's); then was BaconShelf (He got his Grizzly and Cobra army destroyed by D-38 Boss ODST's and Scorpions and GermanShepherdD's ODST's) then Fishy went down. I was repitively getting attacked by GSD and D-38 Boss's army and doing well on a defensive position, then I eventually got all my hunters and jackals destroyed by their Mac Blasts. But all in all, it was a great game.

 

1st Place- Fishy

2nd Place- GermanShepherdD

3rd Place- D-38 Boss

4th- BaconShelf

5th- Test Subject 67

6th- SpartanΩMEGΛ

[VinWarrior]

Only because GSD Mac'd and sent in Cobra (shivers), Cheaters! XD

[Frankenzer]

That was a long match I was really sleepy but I kept going I could not even talk well and eventually I had a powercut. I'm never playing as brute chieftain again

[Azaxx]

Wraith pressure glitch was quite interesting, thanks for showing that off Drizzy, along with your other content in the wrap-up also.

[Caboose The Ace]

[DN2012]

Super annoyed, it figures that I would join the wars play date and not get an award. This has happened like 4 Times and its getting old. Just ask DocSpartan, the one who said he'd give the party an award. Figures that everyone but me would get an award. My game,ertag is DN2012 so ask him to look with recents or something, cause I am really annoyed

Actually, people like me, boss and dan attended a previous play date and received the award. Drizzy said he would hand them out today, just PM him to say you attended. He couldn't get everyone.

Nah, you just couldn't handle garrisoned marines and Flanethrowers taking down everything from grunts to chieftain to scarab xD

I swear if I didn't have a power cut my locusts would crush your base while your marines fight my grunts 

[BaconShelf]

Hopefully, my cap card will be wirking when we have the next playdate. I did some test screenshots to show off Halo 2, (If you could remaster any game thread) but I wish we could have recordedcmy defense.

 

Frank, Locusts are weak, and I do k ow how to prioritise targets

[Frankenzer]

Bacon, theyre building killers
