Pawn Sacrifice

SO, each player is on a island. In the Badlands. AND has a vast island stronghold to defend while trying to sneak in and destroy the enemy. Great for "free for all" play, but if you can't find 4 friends > use map settings 2 human Terrans vs 2 AI Zergs. Not a good map for Protoss unless all players are Protoss. Since this was really a Zerg map, I added another map 2 human Zerg vs 2 AI Zergs This map is 14 years old but I updated it with AJT BADLANDS STORE BRUSHES see in SC1 Mapping Tools https://staredit.net/topic/18879/.
The mission:
The Chinese are building malls on
islands and atolls in the South China
Sea, but the PRC is only using the
stores to camouflage secret military
bases. Protect your vast island
stronghold while you try to wipe out
the Chinese mercantile empire.

Starcraft: It's only a game. We didn't cure cancer. Loosen up.
1 'severity' down, 9 'severities' to go! Always missing a step in the process.
Is that better? Gotta get on a budget & work off my negative mineral debt. It all started with Pong at the Hilltop Diner in Queens in 1973. I write manuals for managers not staff. This place has more rules than a HOA! AKA Discord: FredFlintsone. "Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world."

Oh_Man -- Like it doesnt even bother to build a comsat unless it sees a lurker or dt, etc
[05:15 am]
Oh_Man -- Hope that makes sense. Also artosiscast just dropped a 1 hour vid he analayses a bunch of its games. The TLDR is the maphack is responsible for a large percentage of its wins because its just hard countering zerg rushes
[05:14 am]
Oh_Man -- It's EMULATING the behaviour of a control group select and move without having the actual functionality to do that

Oh_Man -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: yeah but it looks like pluto's eAPM is still 6000 based on issuing all those orders
k the APM is inflated because it issues 12 identical orders individually. Its not 12 unique orders
[03:02 am]
Vrael -- which does reduce down to the same tradeoff I mentioned below, aka trading APM for time, but still interesting
[03:01 am]
Vrael -- and while the reaver was reloading it used that time to aggregate enough marine/tank to fend it off
[03:01 am]
Vrael -- like its micro vs one of the in-base reaver drops was pretty insane, basically it made the reaver spend 1 scarab per unit instead of 1 scarab for many workers/units
[02:58 am]
Vrael -- all the stuff I've said below is based on the actual gameplay vs some strong human performers, seems like the bot just has unfair advantages, but its also doing some cool stuff

NimoStar shouted: If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
I mean human brains trained the bot too, its not completely infeasible for the bot to actually be strong in certain scenarios
