All RTS single player campaign is like... the same.... try every single combination of alliances and use story plot as an excuse...

X campaign:
X fights Y
X fights Z
X race allies with Y agst Z
X + Z agst Y
X fights X (civil war)
X vs Y + Z

maybe even x vs x+y+z (as in end of brood war)

Y campaign:
same forumula

Z campaign:
same formula


Starcraft has 3 distinct game types. You can play ladder type, BGH type and user game type. Especially in BGH and ladder, the game seems quite similar, but because of difference in resource availability, Race, unit building balancing go out the window when playing BGH. The weird thing is, somehow... just somehow... which i cant believe blizzard did this INTENTIONALLY..... the game is pretty well balanced in BGH while blizzard focuses on balancing ladder type games only with patches....

The Protoss ones are especially bad. Carrier duels - oh so exciting.

gayriers go even better with gayweb. it is extremely damned frustrating to be on the receiving end of that.

can someone explain siege mode and lockdown to me?

AFAICT, this game isnt as well documented as AOE was. (Of course it hurts that I dont have a manual, since i bought it used in a jewelcase without a manual)

have you looked at the starcraft compendium on battle.net?

Lucky me. I played only the original.

I havent played Starcraft in months - (this was a revived dead thread) Im playing EU2 exclusively these days. All my SC questions were answered well enough here.
