| Defense |
My idea to playing Starcraft, both
original and expansion are all the same: create defense
first. If I play as Terrans, I would: harvest enough
minerals to make barracks and supply depots. After
you build about four supply depots and two barracks,
make lots of marines. Then, build bunkers all around
your base(preferrably high elevation), and put at
least two marines in each one(depending on their importance.
Then, build an academy and research the item that
increases marine attack range. This also allows you
to train firebats, which you should place in heavily
attacked bunkers for close attacks. Then, build a
factory and add on a machine shop. After that, harvest
enough gas to build at least ten seige tanks. Research
the siege tech ability for the tank and set them up
all around the entrances to your base after you do
that, build a starport and get wraiths to back up
your seige tanks from air attacks. If you find that
you many of your enemies are attacking you in certain
areas, then empty your bunkers except for one marine
in each in less-attacked areas and bring half of your
seige tanks into those areas that are threatened.
After you do that, move wraiths above the bunkers
and siege tanks. Keep at least one seige tank between
two bunkers and one wraith every once in a while around
you almost "deserted bunkers" that you emptied
before. Place one firebat in each of the heavily attacked
bunkers to provide extra defense. This is very effective
against the Zerg, since most of them attack in groups,
where your bunkers and wraiths, especially seige tanks,
can take them out quickly. But, as always, keep at
least 3 SCV's around to repair the splash damage from
the seige tanks and also from your enemies. Against
the protoss, though, you might need extra air and
ground defense, since they attack in groups and are
very powerful. |
| Squash! |
When you get to the second episode(Zerg)
and your getting tired of having Terran forces hit
you then run, read this!! First spawn 2 groups of
12 Zerglings. Then evolve the burrow ability. Then
put group 1 in front of that jelly stuff, then put
group 2 on the jelly stuff. make them all burrow.
Then when the enemy invades make group 2 unborrow
the enemy will go after them, while they atack group
2, make 1 unborrow and attack from behind. Squish!!!

| Easy Win With Zerg
|
To beat a computer player easily
with Zerg just make Mutalisks right away as fast as
you can and make half of them Guardians and kill the
spore colonise with Guardians and then use both to
kill everthing else. |
| Better Terran Defense
|
Build supply depots in your entrance
all the way across (make sure there is no space between
them), then build bunkers behind them and fill them
with marines. Put one or two missle turrets behind
those. You can put siege tanks behind the bunks but
either leave them unsieged or get an scv up by the
supply depots to repair the splash damage. This works
even better if you upgrade your marine's firing range.
Note: This defense works best against Protoss computers
because the zeolots, if they try to attack you, wont
be able to get in and will pace in front of you defense,
however dragoons will shoot your bunkers which is
why siege tanks are nice. Also Zerglings can run through
the gaps in the Supply depots so be carefull of those,
you're also going to want to get a Science Vessel(for
cloaked units) and some type of flying attacker because
if someone cloaks a ghost and Nukes you, your screwed.

| Get A Screenshot
|
To get a screenchot simply press
"print screen" on your key board. |
| Zerg Music |
To have Zerg Music while playing
press: <ENTER> 'radio free zerg' <ENTER>
and you should hear some music. Note: This only works
for Zerg. |
| Protoss Drone Lure
|
Very quickly in the beginning build
a plasma cannon. Then send one or two of your drones
to attack the enemies. Hopefully they won't have any
defenses. Attack their scv's, drones, etc. The computer
will send them after you most likely. Then you can
lure them right back to the cannon. This will only
work in single player because in multiplayer no one
is stupid enough to chase the drones. |
| Zerg Rush |
Send your drones to work mining
minerals and build one more drone quickly. Then send
your overlord exploring to see where the enemy's base
is. When your drone pops up you send it to mine until
you have enough for a spawning pool (I think its 200
minerals) and then send one drone to become a spawning
pool. Then while its building you should get 150 minerals
and you'll have 3 lava build 3 zerglings (50 minerals
each only 2 larva is sufficient sometimes) and right
when you get them send them to the enemys base (if
you do it fast enough they shouldnt be prepared for
it). I would recommend using this strategy on a small
map Blood Bath for example or some 64x64 map. |
| Wipe Out Oppostion
Quickly |
To wipe out a enemy quickly, first
select zerg as your race, then start build zerglings.
You'll want alot! Then begin hunting for your enemies.
Normally this early they won't have hardly and offense
or defense. |
| Terran Defense |
A good way to build a crushing defense
is to first place bunkers across the entrance into
your base fill these bunkers, and build air to air
missle defense, so you can uncover any cloaked units,
then put some siege tanks behind the bunkers on siege
mode, and finally some ghost's to the side.
