French vs. Otto

lol whoops :P do you use control groups? Everything seemed to be in one group and you took a while to notice / adjust

p.s. you didn't need to push out at that time. You knew he was going falc / mams and you had the better eco, even with proper micro you'd lose that fight.

If you do use control groups, then you shouldnt really need to double click units when you only have a few unit types. Even if you sniped his cannons his mams would've beaten your army - they have 40% rr and 1,450 hp. Best bet is to wait for his push (inevitably Otto will push as your eco advantage will kick in the longer he waits). Sometimes you do need to push out for map, but timing is key.

My mouse is pretty shit and I sometimes miss click units to brilliant effect, so try to get more comfortable with at least a couple of control groups and using them to react to things, rather than double clicking.

Hope that helps

yeah as jono said, you shouldn't have engaged that fight. Just wait at home with canons in bombard mode so you don't have to micro. Or maybe just a bit. 10vills in garrison + mm win this.
