KE's 2 Turnip + 2 Strawb opening strat

I thought this was funny. My brother went onto Harvest Moon forums and posted this. He plays a lot of RTS, and Harvest Moon is not an RTS whatsoever. I don't think Chris has ever even played it. It's a farming game, you walk around your farm and... farm shit. If you can understand the humor of it you get l33t points. Here it goes:

Hi guys,

I've been devising a strat 4 pure pwnage (hehe) on any map. What you do is start off buying 2 TURNIP SEEDS + 2 STRAWBERRY SEEDS (sorry this is EXTREMELY important and cannot be ignored) and buy 1 GHOUL, JUST ONE to water them while you creep offbase.

The focus of this strat is:
1.) Good economy/gold gain
2.) Delaying enemy tactics until you can get GS to pwn them ;)
3.) Playing defensively and smartly.

TRY AND AVOID ENEMY ENGAGEMENTS AT ALL COSTS. I know that enemies to provide XP and gold, but you can get all that through creeping and from my experience, it's best to avoid the enemy because they will usually win initial engagements.

MID GAME:
Ok you should be making about 200 gold/day by the time you get the ghoul to water your crops. I'd reccomend teching up to raspberries, as those sell better, but if you wish you can tech to more practical things to compliment the metagame (such as elixeroots/etc.) that is fine. What you do want to end up buying is a SHORT SWORD (the cheapest) and continue to upgrade it. I calculated all the costs out and found that IT IS ACTUALLY CHEAPER TO UPGRADE A SS TO A GS THAN TO BUY A GS OUT OF THE BOX. On top of that, it takes about the same amount of time to get there. Check this out:

Gold Sword: 8000 G

Short Sword: 600 G
Upgrade 1 for short sword: 1400 G
Uprade 2 for short sword: 1600 G
Upgrade 3 for short sword: 3000 G
Which gives us the total of 6600 G, 1400 less than the GS. Note that it will just be called Short Sword upgrade 3, but will have the same offensive and defensive bonuses as the GS.

Late Game:
You should have map control and resource dominance by the time you get your GS. The best way to secure this is to spam Raspberry crop which should get you to around 700-800 G a day. A lot of ppl have complained to me that they don't know what to do when they get to this stage, I just say keep spamming Raspberries and decking our ur char with the gold. An uber harvest moon/married/GS toting warrior will be able to pwn any late game obstacle your opponent may throw at you, and requires very little micro. That'll usually make him quit.

Good luck, and let me know what you think!
