slaphapy Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 well, I had never seen you rush that way, so i wasn't prepared, i also had about 20 buzzies coming in my back door from your ally... remember? although, fortunately skum0m3n was there to save my ... tail... and we ended up wining :) i think 3 games in a row :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowzeewee Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 This is getting off-topic and rushing definition should be in E:BFD board and not strat.This is the actual definition---->Rushing is to defeat your enemy quickly/ASAP regardless of unit-strength of each side(s)'(s).

ken124578 Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 I wouldn't call a 1-man-chemical-attack a "Rush". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slaphapy Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 ken: why wouldn't a "1-man-chemical-attack" be a rush?? If it gets the job done (which it usually does for me, unless they build a turret or something) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 An attack of a moderate-large group of mainly first-tier units used to destroy your enemy early in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 A 1-man-chemical-rush will ALWAYS fail, even if it did destroy a building, remember that an enemy infantry unit will popup? (Unless your enemy is too new and doesn't even know how to deploy/move his mcv) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Normally the chemical troop can also gas the popup troop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Not when there are multiple units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Yes.But early in the game,only a windtrap,conyard and possibly a barracks is present,so it shouldn't be a problem.I think maybe a two-men chemical rush is better or three perhaps. ;) Its still a rush.

ken124578 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 If you have a barack the enemy has a barack too, besides, did you forget that an mcv can crush infantry units as well? :PAnd a 1 man chemical rush will always die, remember that you cannot fire at enemy infantry units when they pop out of a building until the destroyed_building animation has finished.

Apollyon Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Whether the rush fails or not is irrelevent when concerned with its meaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 I keep emphasizing that the meaning of rush is using an *ARMY* to *ATTACK*[not successful,destroy or anything,just *ATTACK*] *ASAP*. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphapy Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 I beat pointybum with a 1 man chemmy/few dusties rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rostok Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 *Quote: Henry-It sounds rushing is quite non-tatical If by tatical u mean tactical......All your posts have just lost alot of significance. You try rushing a half decent opponent early in a game. Wait a minute...you cant play online! so why are you even here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
