A bit of a comeback

So Laser_wolf and I had what I thought was a pretty epic win on stormwail a few days ago. It shatters the idea that losing an outpost (or 1, or 2, or all of them) on stormwail means game over, at least, as far as being undead goes. (and a couple other circumstantial things)

Anyways check out the replay if you want. Rue and Nephy ftw.

Also, sidenote: Max level 80 is disappointing, Yak.

ok I'll post the replay later the site is giving me errors =\

Alright, here's the replay.

Also I was unaware of the replay thread. I guess this is the most active portion of the forums right now anyways.

Better description of the game - Nephy innate skill kept them from getting artifact back to base, my heavy str/armor build for rue was able to defend all outposts hitting the main base (which was the only thing left).



NOTE TO YAK: Workers repair sorrow liege's ultimate buildings fully almost instantly. I thought something in particular caused it, such as the worker being in it then coming out, but I think it just happens naturally.

EDIT: FIXED

There's a thread in the stratergy guide section for replays, I'll have to watch this one some time though.

yeah I got that but seeing as how the last person to go there went like 3 months ago I didn't want to move my thread

Reaper, I think you mean Rue's buildings.

That game was pretty epic. Neph is very good at keeping the other team from getting the artifact. He still has too little mana until later in the game to be overpowered.

I don't know if I would agree with you that conventional wisdom says if you lose your outposts it's GG.

I didn't say it was conventional wisdom. Besides, it's more likely than not you can't win with nothing but your main base left and the other team going for the artifact. That's the point here.

It was a crazy save by us.
