Bad Cyborg

YouTube channel

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 19:15:00 GMT

I now have a YouTube channel called Bad Cyborg Movies, giving another platform for my movies. I may also feature some extra movies there (i.e. outside my main BCM series), but we'll see.

Dustbowl megabattle movies

Sun, 7 Mar 2010 23:50:00 GMT

Fresh megabattle action for you, this time in the dustbowl against 45 covies on Normal. BCM9 shows a cliff path defence (with bonus beastie howl at the end - very timely), while BCM10 shows a defence in the small enclosure where you sometimes find a Shade. I've also revised and expanded my dustbowl megabattle section, which now includes almost fifty pictures. Have a look!

Descent trick revision

Sun, 31 Jan 2010 23:00:00 GMT

Having determined that being in contact with a cliff face actually doesn't give any slowing effect (which is contrary to what I'd thought all these years, and which you can read about on my updated page on Jumping and falling), I've revised my description of the descent trick. There are a few other changes in there too, including an alternative run-off spot you can use.

New movies - bridge descent trick and seven extra Marines

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:10:00 GMT

Somewhat later than planned, I'm back with more movies. BCM7 shows a highly useful descent trick off the first bridge in AOTCR, and BCM8 shows it being used to get seven extra Marines and an extra hog fast - and to hear Johnson's 'hidden' 16-second all-clear speech! I've also revised my pages on the descent trick and that seven extra Marines trick.

Spiral path megabattle - more pics and text

Tue, 1 Dec 2009 17:30:00 GMT

All the battle plans in my spiral path megabattle section now have pics, and some of those pages have had some text revision, notably the 'High position defence' page which I expanded a lot. In connection with that plan, I've added advice on getting spare weapons to high places. Also added a blockade pic to the 'Path base defence' page, and added a new battle plan, the 'Path top defence'.

Spiral path megabattle movies

Two new movies for you, BCM5 and BCM6, showing some of the delights on offer in the spiral path megabattle - notably some hot rockety goodness! I've also done a big revision of my account of the battle. There's some new advice, and I've added lots of pictures to illustrate the main setting-up work plus the path base defence plan used in BCM5. I'll add pics to the other battle plan shortly.
