towering (gay)
Those 2 pages just cover 2 'tricks' of towering. The tower bug, and towering into someone by using the towers shooting priority.
If you want to tower in to someone...say they already have a guard tower up.
You will need to put up your first guard tower at either 4 or 5 spaces away: meaning that you could fit a townhall in between the towers without the hall overlapping on them.
You need 2 peons...1 starts the tower...the other repairs. Then you wait until it is upgraded. THEN you start a watch tower closer...and once that is upgraded the guy is screwed unless he's doing something to stop it.

Thats always what i say when someone towers, and all they can do it laugh, then when I do play them 1v1 they are pretty newbish, because towering is like the only strat they know, if it really is a strat.

Well you should be good enough to be able to defend the gay. If not, then they are superior to you in that area. Choose the best strategy to win, I don't think it matters how you do it.

Towering is no way in hell newbish if you know when to use it, especially when you are playing a new gow/fastest player. They tend to make 2 raxes with a ct for defense. I dont know about you, but I think the ct is useless and will slow your progress. Grunts should be able to defend your base ;\. Anyways, the people who do this are and easy kill with gts (maybe a cat too) and more grunts. They will not be able to stop you becuz they blow and cannot rush as well as you. =]

Towering is part of the game. You dont have to be good at it, but u should know how to defend it and not be slowed down by it at least not as much as the gayer..
Cannon towers while rushing - oxymoron.
But necessary when 3x3ing and tripled..

Top and left HAVE tower bug on them, meaning towers can be setup so that top cant repair while bottom can, and right can repair while left cant. It is really all very well explained by Axo. I don't know how people still get confused
Thnx

Who the fuck are these Fastest players that make 2 raxes and a CT right away?
Everyone says this shit and after several thousand fastest games the only ppl I've clearly seen do this immediately were newbs that shouldn't be playing anyway..
If these are the type of players you're playing in w2lc you should honestly try and find the better ones...

I try to find games in 24-7 and if I dont, then I go searching for w2lc games. Mostly when I do this I find about 70% of the fastest community does the 2 rax 1 ct method of "stradegy". But I admit there are some good fastest players.

towering is newbish
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
"all you can do is tower"
to be good in warcraft 2, you need to be good in many things
one of which is towering
if you're god of rush/lusting and you suck at neighbor wars, then you cant be concidered a "good" player
just the same if you're god of towering and suck at rush/lusting you cant be concidered good

Yeah. I like to say the same thing when my opponent either rushes, uses Ogres, Sappers, Dragons, or Catapults. Unless you can beat me with only Axe Throwers...YOU = NEWBIE & UNHONORABLE! _________________ http://www.blizz-craft.com

towerin
the game is about winning, if some newb oted you, and you lost, maybe you aint as good as you thought you were... get over it and learn to antigay, stop sayin that towering is for newbs if you get OWNED so many times with the same "strat".

Towering and anti-towering is probably one of the best skills to have in this game.

that isnt true. the best skill to have is to be able to talk trash while in a neighbor war; and winning of course; I believe Turtleman holds the title for that skill~

call me newbish, but i belive towering is one of the easiest to master and most effective rush in the game.
cook book to tower rush:
peon 1 : hall, farm, go find enemy and mstart making towers
peon 2 : mill
peon 3 : repair mill
cookbook to anti tower:
grunt rush _________________ knowledge is power, Hide it well.
