An open letter from some top players

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

Hey everyone, long time no see. I was camping over the weekend (and found a really strange cemetery), then got a little bit distracted by friends upon my return. But the Supreme Commander community wasn’t silent in my absence, oh no! We have some pretty significant developments to report on, so let’s [...]

In an attempt to add a little variety to the replay reviews we have done here on SupCom Talk, today I’ll be looking at a 1v1 match on Roanoke Abyss. Many of you have been clamoring for more replay reviews recently, and so we are trying to deliver. Also keep in mind that [...]

“ZOMG the Forged Alliance trailer is out” open thread

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

In case you were living under a rock that was encased in carbonite and buried in a Baghdad marketplace this past week, let me point out that the Supreme Commander stand-alone expansion Forged Alliance trailer was released this week.

Sunday, July 8th, 2007

I recently found an excellent replay on the vault showing a 1v1 match between two excellent, big name players in the SupCom community: Unconquerable and TheLittleOne.

Supcom-Live’s Unconventional Tactics video

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

Supcom-Live’s Unconventional Tactics video is worth checking out. They highlight three unconventional tactics in a video reel: ghetto gunships, T2 tank drops, and combat commander drop. Okay, so the first tactic isn’t so unconventional anymore, but the tank drops are definitely a sight to behold, and the commander drop is so outrageous, we [...]

Flail 2 work in progress 2 released

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Rake has been working hard on his Flail 2 Supreme Commander music video, which is, of course, the sequel to Flail. The second work in progress has been released (download link). At least in my humble opinion, Rake is currently the best video maker working with Supreme Commander footage. It doesn’t seem [...]
