[+] You repelled his first wave quite easily. [+] Overall a very nice early game; you had good building placement, steady units, and a well-located forward mine. [+] Nice job focusing on stances! [+] Good use of Rallying Call. [+] This isn’t big, but I liked the lair farming. [+] You kept at it, even when your base had been destroyed. Outstanding job.
Averages
[=] More resources buildings would have helped, IMO. [=] Your early economy wasn’t great, but then, you were focusing on churning out units. [=] Relocation of base could have happened sooner.
Cons
[-] By not at least building a Hall of Warriors in the early game, you gave him a rock-paper-scissors advantage from the start. [-] Resource floating. We all do it, but that doesn’t make it right. [-] Two buildings were used for the majority of the game: the mines and the range. Having a variety of buildings, or at least another Range, would have sealed the deal way sooner. [-] Keep control of your axe-throwers! You let them just stand there and get killed!
Overall score: 4 You did very nicely! I feel that you should have won this game. Watch for the transition from early-game to late-game.

Build Order: Mill>>> Mill >>> Hall of the King’s Men >>> Mill
Pros
[+] Excellent use of Fell Wind! I must take my hat off to you. [+] Kept with the assualt on his fortress. That is what won that battle for you. [+] Nice, quick relocation.
Averages
[=] Nice variety of heroes, but didn’t they die rather quickly and repeatedly? [=] When you see a building, and a builder in late game, who do you go for? *listens* That’s right, the builder.
Cons
[-] Why did not not go searching for his forward mine?! You let him come at you time and time again! [-] Trolls? They would have helped against his axe-throwers! [-] Standing units? They destroyed your fortress; get some payback!
Overall score: 3.5 Your game was pretty good, but I think you won it because of Lego’s refusal to transition from early-game to late-game strategies. You used them quite effectively, IMO.
Overall Game Score: 4
This was an excellent game. It shows you a top-notch axe-thrower rush, relocation techniques, and other strategies to make this match worth your time.
Thank you smeagolfan. I know you will make a great replay reviewer!
Although I didn't build a hall of warriors because the gardians are more expensive than axe throwers and they are worse than 1.04. Pike's wouldn't cut the cake either and zealots are too expensive.
