Yea man, Diablo's good but StarCraft Brood War is awesome too. I just bought it... yesterday I think. I suck *** at it, but it's still fun. I love using nukes on terrans . After Altron left a game I was playing with him, I destroyed 16 supply depots with one nuke :D . Pwnt.

I love you bob

Oops, I forgot to mention they were Altrons... but we had already beat the **** out of the other team so it didn't matter.

They pick off your sunkens no trouble, then his M&M army with sci vessel moves in, kills lurkers (shouldn't lose too many marines if you spread em out) tanks and goliaths bring up the rear.

Once he starts building as he moves along into your base or towards your choke you are finished, he can build a factory, but it's usually Turrets and/or bunkers you're air is finished.

He can get his dropships loaded with 8 M&M's and then drop your base.


If there is a pesky lurker who took some damage but killed off a lot of Terran, the sci vessel does that (wtf is it called?) where it makes you green...like a virus...and you lose life. Byebye pesky lurker.

Overall, M&M + Tanks and Turrets > Zerg. Anyday.

Any knowledgeable zerg player will take out any detectors by building spores in addition with sunkens. Tanks are a problem, but guardians can pwn them long-range. In the base, sunkens on the outside perimiter will aid sunkens on the inside, while the speedy zerglings will jump in and pwn m&m's as they come out of dropships, on by one.

Well as I see it Terrans can always counter zerg because we have irradiate. Next we can use EMP on 'toss(ruining the fun but expensive archon rushes). Combine EMP, Irradiate, and detector abilities into something is great, but it is a bit weak. I actually suck pretty bad at SC(at real games anyway, challenge me in ling blood and I will cut you!) so if any of you guys wanna teach me how not to suck it would be appreciated.

AM or PM cause I can get on now if you would like.

Originally AM, but I might be able to go on now. Unfortunately for me the computer I use for starcraft(this box has slackware) isn't mine so we share it. I barely ever use it, but whenever I do other people(my sister) whine about how I'm not letting them use it although they never use it either :) I'll see if I can get on. If I can then I'll edit this and say I'm on.
EDIT: forgot about this.
I found the most fun strategy, build many many hatcheries and build 120 zerglings. then hotkey them from 1-0 and burrow them somewhere. Wait for the main bulk of the enemies forces to be distracted and unburrow them all(funny too). Then sick them at the enemies base :D really powerful I have some screen shots of it's effect on a computer whose base was 3/4 of BGH :) I did this and left them with only a Hive(that was barely alive) an extractor and a hatchery wait for me to upload em.
