hehehe.....hot topic   :grin:

Yea, test power~

...Well, I'd play better using Terran..
 
If you were making Carriers, you wouldn' t have enough units to overcome the fury of Mirex's swarm, Seph.

What you should do is (if you're playing Temple) put 1 zealot and 1 probe ON the ramp, and then surround the top of the ramp with dragoons.  Get increased goon range, that way the dragoons will attack his units, and they will just run around mindlessly trying to get the dragoons.

Scout often, if he's going Muta/ling, go Archons.  If he's going hydras, go Fast z / goon range, etc.
 
Ah - Reminds me of the good-ol'-days...  Post one thread, and end up with something completely different....  Love it!

Never heard about FFX the movie!  Is it possible to get it if you live in the UK?  :???:  If so, where please?

Who though that The Spirits Within wasn't all it was cracked up to be?  Don't get me wrong - I like it, but the hype was too much!

Anyway - Have those screen-grabs been posted anywhere?  I'd like to have a look at them.
 
Basicly, it's not a "movie" per se... It's a collection of the movies from FFX.

those always seem so pointless..... unless they have special features.

Aha - Cheers.  I'll just wait until the game comes out then.  

That quote of yours - It's probably one of the best lines in the film!
 
Yeah. I really like it. I think it's almost a motto for the people of this era, what with all the terrorism, bombing & anthrax stuff going around. Not understanding, but not having to understand...

It works on a lot of levels...

Just come to malaysia for a vacation. Total = 5 CDs. I'm in malaysia and I'm not sure about other countries.
 
If you're Zerg, Hydras.
If you're Protoss, Carriers.
If you're Terran, Battlecruisers.

If you get enough fast enough... you win :razz:
 
Unfortunately, none of those methods (well, except the hydras) work all that well.  BCs are power houses, but they cost alot and they're slow to make.  A good fleet of scouts with fast movement can easily own BCs.  The best terran strat is usually tanks & rines.

Carriers aren't all that great for most situations.  I've owned them with marines (now, mind you, the person I was playing was pretty pathetic.)  You have to know HOW to play them, and even then it's a risk.   I never use them.

Hydras are sometimes good vs terran (they suck vs tanks), sometimes vs. other zerg.  They totally suck vs. toss (fast zs tear up hydras).   If you're playing toss, you probably should go Muta/ling. Protoss can't handle the constant wave of zerglings, if you send them by the hundreds. (unless they have archons.  Archons tear up lings.)
 
The best thing to do when playing Zergs is to keep sending zerglings to his base while you build up your tech. After everything is built up, build a teleporter and a hive near his base. Then send in a wave of zerglings (a decoy) in what looks like a massive attack, have the zerglings go at it, then at the same time (actually, a bit later. Give him time to move his units...) attack with a fleet of flyers and sooped up Ultralisks from the opposite direction, going after their resource collectors.

He'll be massivly overwelmed, unless he's expecting you. :grin:

I have now a problem with zerg vs protoss, Im in last mission of Broodwar. Situation: im in the middle of map, above me and to left are terran, below me to right are protoss. I want to kill protoss first, coz they were nasty to me before :smile: But I still cant. Any suggestions ?
I try with zerglings - they come with carriers, reavers & archons or mealstorm.
Flyer attack - mealstorm or Ice.
Hydras - storm or ice.
What should I do ?
 
Queens dude! Lots of Queens. Use their broodling technique on the evils you can hit (Templars, Reevers & Archons), and use those suicidal flyers (Scourges?) to take out the carriers.

It's the best method.

I watched my cousin beat that level... he maxed out completely with Hydras, heh.
 
seph: i think that you cant 'create'  broodling from reavers nor archons  (only ground nonrobotic units you know)

but scourges to the air is great idea.
 
yup. if you mod starcraft, you learn very quickly that an archon is a mechanical unit.

you guys.... mutas. lots and lots of mutas. you can get them in like 7 minutes and kill off a terran base before they have a bunker or tanks.
 
:laugh: Opps! My bad! I guess I'm wrong... But I remember brooding a Reaver before...

Anyways, I thought about it, and so long as they don't have nearby detectors, I guess you could screw over the land-based units with Lurkers. (Bring in the air support!) Another method is the take out the carriers with scourges, then bring in massive amounts of upgraded Ultralisks after using the blood-something (I forgot the name. I need to get my SC discs back...) spell. That way, you only have to worry about their shields. (They can't repair! Good for you, bad for Protoss players like me...)

But they always say: Know thine enemy, else you will be lost.

Maybe we should rename this forum "Starcraft Help"...

i think the best way to knock out a protoss base is with mutas as well. lots of mutas, a few devourers, and about 12 guardians will whipe out anything. you gotta love that splash damage.
