    Oh yeah, also, why does everyone (apparently) think the only fun to be had is to win?
    What happened to "playing for the fun of it"?
    If people won't play games they can't win, the world is gonna get a shortage of players in ANY game, real soon.

    Yaaahh, if people think they are better than me we should probably settle this in a 1on1.

    If you're set on destroying bases rather than just focusing on the Commander, then it won't be a very long game.

    I had dozens of T1 anti air ships, buildings, T2 and T1 anti air. Just not fast enough when without any chance of detection suddenfly fly stupid amounts of t1 bomber straight into your comm. He died, just because he was not in the centre or protection. Please, somebody, tell me how this is supposed to work that the comm should build expansions on other bases, when he isnt even allowed to leave the one base he has.

    So, why did you let him get that many bombers in the first place?

    I'm still having problems seeing why you're the "superior" player here.

    Well, if you send your commander to the moon and the enemy lands on it or has one factory on it and then comm snipes it? I dunno. Just, to expan your territory to moons or other planets you will have to leave the protection of your home base.

    Or I guess we can send escorts? Or builders with escorts to not expose the commander?

    That was a mistake.
    There is no reason to use the commander to build expansions late into the game. You have engineers for that. In fact the one thing you SHOULD do with the commander is to let him spam t1 aa turrets non stop in late game and let t1 air fighters fly circles around him.

    If you lose your Commander to the production from a single factory, I don't see how you would have won anyway.

    And one mistake is all it takes to turn you from an advantageous position, to a losing one.

    You made a mistake. The enemy took advantage of it.

    What's hilarious about the thread is that the poster asks for suggestions from others, pays no attention to any constructive replies he gets (alright, some of them may need to be smirked at), then still insists he's a better player than anyone else, indeed, challenges any who doubt his abilities to a 1v1.

    The irony is, he keeps telling us how to beat him....

    And you ignore the rest of what I said. The factory of course produces units that kill your unprotected commander on the moon. :I

    Why are you trying to invade an already occupied moon with JUST the Commander then? That's suicide.

    If it's just one factory though Your commander can .. you know, build his own factory in less than 30 seconds.
