@Knightshade: Surprisingly for me, we were evenly matched until near the end, when I forgot to add a Caretaker to my factory. I had been focusing too much on slowing down your economic development that I neglected my own. That was probably my biggest downfall.

Some other things that I maybe could've done to turn the tide in my favor:

- Reclaim, reclaim, reclaim! Not only were there wrecked Kodachis that I could've salvaged, but I could've reclaimed the rocks at the start as well.

- Don't chase retreating enemy units back to their base, since they could receive reinforcements, forcing me to retreat back to my own base. If I lose units close to the enemy's base, that's just more metal for the enemy to reclaim.

- Don't bother too much on upgrading my commander, since that's usually metal better spent elsewhere. (I had been trying to add cloaking to it btw.)

- Build Ogres instead of Minotaurs, since I saw you focusing on clumped-up masses of Blitzes so much.

- Reclaim what you can get. I made the mistake of sending units to die close to your base, which would've meant that you would've had plenty of metal available to spend on something that could defeat me. Plus, like I mentioned before, there were rocks that could be reclaimed.

- Set up a retreat zone near your base (or other fallback position), and set your durable Blitzes and Kodachis to automatically retreat there when they received some hefty damage. (I do this by default in the options menu.) This should lighten your micromanagement load.

- What could also lighten your micromanagement load is to set your factories on repeat build mode by default, so that you could be content knowing that you'll always be spending your metal on something productive instead of excessing it all. (If you need just one or two certain units, like, say, a constructor, then Alt+Left Click should have you covered.)
