My gaming memory must've been a few days ago on Zero Hour.

I decided to take over a GLA base because i wanted the scud storms (i was Lasor general). So what i had done was loaded up 3 Chinnoks with Snipers, Rocket men and Rangers (8 in each). So i air lifted them just south of the base, i decided to go for the supply stash as it was least defended (i was doing this against Easy enemies because i was trying out the map i made).

Ok, so the snipers started picking off the workers and gained several levels doing so. I got my rangers into position and started capturing the supply stash - By this time i had grabbed the attention of 5 quad cannons lingering nearby and they moved closer, so i had my Rocketmen use the lasor sights to utterly own the quad cannons. Unfortunatly the rocketmen got killed but took out 3 of the cannons in the process.

This is the close part - i had nearly captured the building and the cannons turned their sights on the rangers and opened fire (8 rangers remaining)

about half way through capturing (5 rangers remaining)

nearly done! and the cannons ran over my rangers (1 remaining). JUST i swear a splitsecond, not even that, a nano second after capturing the building my soldier got killed!

Now heres the 'Rescue', i started pumping workers out of the stash to the nearby waiting chinnoks, the snipers supplying cover from hostile infantry, the workers rushed out the stash while the cannons were busy destroying the building. Once they had destroyed it they killed one of the workers but by this time the snipers and the 4 workers who had got out were safely in the chinnoks and on their way home :D

me and my friend were screaming at the screen. it was so tense!

thats gotta be one of the best times. or when Burton danced with 5 scorpion tanks *thinks* but thats a story for another time me thinks =D
