Alright, one last post.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starcraft
I don't know, I guess I just like to see semi-professional people posting things about this game.

The fact that they knew about Tsunami's strat guide is a riot (not that it's bad, it's the best Zerg guide out there). Tsunami is one of the greatest old school players if you didn't know. He was one of the few people who actually thought about the game; something pathetically uncommon today. It seems rare to find someone who doesn't just copy everything they've seen in replays. He was also one of the few people to try to put the decision process behind StarCraft into words, he is in my opinion the most successful in doing so. Very rare to find people devoted to the community like he was.

Not to mention a link at the bottem to Grrrr... =D

Hopfully you'll have more respect for StarCraft after reading this, as many people seem to act... I think you know what I mean.

There you have it, I hope you found this somewhat interesting.

Peace,

PsychoTemplar

Calm down. Not all insects have 6 legs. The lurker has 5 legs I think =/ close enough. A praying mantus (don't know how to spell it, don't really care) has has four legs right? What about grass hoppers?

I believe the broodling has 6 legs >> <<. Even so, exoskelletons and being controlled by one leader is insect like enough for me.... anyway...

Exoskeletons?
Arthropods.
Controlled by one leader?
Hive mind.

They are insect-like. You cannot deny that.

I use wikipedia for a lot of things ... and if anyone has the latest version of trillian (It might be pro-only version) then underlined words are automatically looked up so you can hover over them and see a brief wikipedia definition of them. You can also click on them and do a search, go to the wikipedia page for it, or copy the definition.

Starcraft translates to:

''StarCraft'' (SC) is a real-time strategy computer game produced by Blizzard Entertainment in 1998. The game is similar to Blizzard's previous hit ''Warcraft II'', but has a science fiction setting. The game was heavily edited during the development process to steer the game away from being simply "Warcraft in Space", and eventually the entire game engine  had to be gutted and redeveloped to allow the developers to actually achieve the results they were after. The main storyline of the game revolves around a war between three galactic species: the Protoss (a race of humanoid religious warriors), the Zerg (insect-like aliens who share a hive mind) and the Terrans (human colonists from Earth). It was initially released for Windows, later for Macintosh and the N64.

''StarCraft'' was the best selling computer game in 1998. In that same year Blizzard released an expansion pack called ''StarCraft: Brood War''. Recently, Blizzard has announced a third person shooter, ' that will be released sometime in 2005. Fans impatiently await the creation of StarCraft II - Blizzard has every intention of creating the game, but it is not currently in development.


EDIT: Oh yeah, go look at their section on custom campaigns (UMS). And the links (way bottom).
