What's you biggest mis-macro?

Post by Snuden »

I recently had 3000+ coins and only 80 food. Wood was in the 1800 range. This got corrected and I could continue my single rax spam.

I was playing with this giant trashcan and I floated fifteen HUNDRED food and I could not spend it. It was IMPOSSIBLE to spend it.

I should have won that game but japan is so easy

I think I win this one hands down. I did a fish boom as ports on Hispaniola. I had 8k coin stacked at the end of the game whilst still in age 3 and unable to stabalize.

Yea it happens as zerg, but as terran it should not happen since I have mules, less bases (thus less workers on gas), but well :P
Lacking gas happens very often however.

Yea Garja does the same!
More seriously, if you're playing Japan or Germany it's quite big because sometimes it can become -5sec on the age up, which is game changing.

Just market trade. Only buying food is really bad, but even then I'd rather pay 100 food extra to get a batch of 5 hussars instead of 3 hussars in a crucial fight.

Market trading is bad unless you need it now. If you can use your misbalance to move vils to new reaources that’s ideal.

Also not reflected in your resource balance is how well distributed your vils are on resources. For example do you have 5 vils on each mine or did you send 3 vils to a further mine to slow mine it when it became safe. All of this minimizes walking time and helps reduce your macro needs later as resources last longer.
