    Default Outnumbered Achievements and More...

    So I've spent the past few days working on some achievements I can do v.s. comps, since the pc I'm playing on runs about as fast as TME's chronoboost reflex. In my discovery of the 4v1 outnumbered achievement, I have been stumped over and over again. I have gotten very close, but it seems like one way or another, I'm going down.

    I've been playing all sorts of strats, but the best so far was me as Toss vs 4 zerg, tech to DTs and then work from there. By the time I get 2 DTs and some cannons, they are at my front door and I can wall it with the DTs while they slaughter themselves. (For reference, I'm playing this on Abyss because I like to Void Ray harass the back of their bases)

    However, in the lategame, I haven't been able to catch back up due to my inability to expand, and the natural tendency for the computers to get smarter after they got DT harassed... not to mention there's 4 of them. Even mass PsiStorms has left me with nothing left, due to their sheer numbers.

    If anyone has any insight on completing this achievement, I would very much love to hear it I've been working on others as well, so if anyone has questions, tips, or otherwise for achievements, feel free to voice them here! I'll help as best I can, as I'm sure the rest of the forum community will.

    P.S. I love you and your sunbucks TME.

    P.P.S. Ok.. maybe not your sunbucks.

    did it the same way i did in beta. played on extinction, lifted to island and expanded to other island, bombarded them from behind with tanks, and did tank/thor drops for cleanup.

    Thanks for the tip


    Any Toss players with some input? Not that I won't be trying this one.. It'd be a good idea to learn better control of my chosen race though.

    Protoss probably has the toughest time with it. Zerg doing a 6 or 7 pool into Spine crawlers behind the mineral line has most of them surrender, if they don't you just move the spine crawlers from the other base to theirs and finish them off.

    Cannon rushing 2 or 3 of them early would probably even out the results a bit, but Pylon+Cannon costs more than a spine crawler so getting all 4 may not work as well.

    I'm not much of a ground rusher. Especially with my crappy computer. I've been turtling with air rushes at most. They worked til I ran out of resources to keep up with them.
