Finally, a blog related to Empire at War by Gahmah.

Well, this is about a funny experience I've had in the game.

When I was on Carida (conquest map, mind ya), I didn't read the fact about Rancors living on Carida, but when I went west from the landing zone, I met up with those tubby, shaved gorilla-lizards (that's what they look like, but I don't say it as an insult). I then looked at the warning.

Right, then I was tempted to get my infantry to run away.

The next try, I would send some tanks (T4-Bs) to get rid of their cave, but when the gorilla-lizards came, and I saw one of the most awe-inspiring moments. If you thought they just eat infantry (or swipe or step on them), guess what else they can do: They can smash a tank easily with its own fists! That was also tempting enough to make me want to keep away from their cave, if not the growling they make.

Now this is a new definition of a dangerous monster.

We should add this to the book of "Why to Fear Rancors".

If you have any other great, funny, or odd moments in EAW to mention, or a comment, go ahead and put one or two or three, and so on.
