It's a common mistake. I see it from real players too.. reaper rushing, as I call it, is so massively overpowered.
There was a second game after that one that was 3v4 Insane Comp Stomp versus orcs. Me and the guy who I play with far too much and some random Tau idiot.
Tau player turns out to be a noob, and his base gets destroyed within the first 10 minutes. Being Eldar, I just jump into my friend's base. We not only hold out for 40 minutes or so whilst we tech up, with hordes of orks sweeping towards us, but then go on to win the match.
Being me, I forgot to screenshot any of it however. I shall find a screencam that I can run constantly in future, so that condensed parts of it can be shown.
And yes, it was another Reaper rush... but with Wraithlord support so that I could take out bases. Ork bases are suspectible to giant 10 foot tall metal structures driving giant hammers through them. I think it's the fact that the orks haven't really learnt how to build bases, and just get a pile of guns and call it home.
The aftermath?
I kill 3500 orks. My friend kills 4500 orks. We both have over 15000 military score thanks to kills.
The Tau player who was knocked out in under 10 minutes? -55 points overall.
We lose less than a 1000 troups between us. 7-1 isn't particularly bad I don't think. I'm still amazed that 2v4, we took them on and won. If only players were as stupid as computers.
