Supreme Commander Talk

Today I would like to sidestep the cursory issues of no-rush customs, the implications of T2 point defenses leading targets and why Grokmoo cannot properly differentiate between energy generators and mass fabricators, to address a far more pressing issue. How can I use Supreme Commander to pick up women? Surely these skills are transferable somehow, [...]

Okay, as you may be aware, my previous attempt at this failed. But my current attempt is a success! I’ve had to modify the script so that it downloads the replays to this site’s server and creates the link to there, but it works! Basically, you put in a replay:-style link (the [...]

Woo! I barely came through on this one. For those of you not wanting to see a match similar to the last one, I can tell you that this is most certainly shorter but is also of a much higher caliber (skill wise). Though I lacked adaptation I still managed to pull [...]

One of the largest deficiencies in Supreme Commander custom multiplayer right now that will only be made even more obvious with the release of the new patch is the lack of automatic transmission of custom game elements (such as units, maps, and mods) between players. This lack means that, in order to play a [...]

This is my first article in what may or may not become a series on games I have played.
For those of you who didn’t catch my previous introduction since it was buried in a response to a post by Cyde Weys, I’ve decided that a good way to both contribute to the community and to [...]

I love Supreme Commander. Its scale is as epic and its strategic possibilities as endless as promised. While you all probably agree with me, sadly, many of my gaming friends have yet to “see the light.” Even my friends who are huge fans of RTS have failed to join the bandwagon. Being [...]

I am biased. I have my own opinions, some of which are rather strong (exhibit A: the recent anti-rush rants). But Supreme Commander Talk itself is neutral. I suppose that sounds kind of silly, since what is the site if not for its creators, but dammit, I’m the creator, and it’s neutral [...]

One key aspect that I failed to cover at all in my recent screed against the no-rush game option is that it isn’t just no-rush, it’s no-scouting too. Each player is confined within a small area on the map until the predetermined no-rush period is over. So yes, this means you can’t attack [...]

I’ve created a quick-and-dirty converter that transforms GPGnet-specific links of the form replay:… into general HTTP links that can be accessed from any web browser anywhere. This isn’t so helpful on GPGnet itself because replay: links function just fine within the client, but it’s very useful for, say, linking to a specific replay in [...]

CydeWeys and I were recently involved in a nice 4 way free for all on Four Leaf Clover. The other two participants were Fargone and Dl_Smokey. While it was a long match, there was plenty of action throughout.
You will notice at the start that I very quickly fall far, far behind the other [...]
