SC2 Speedrun Part 56: Early Zergling Pressure – StarCraft eSports

Heroes – Rory Swann

An old Morian mining ad said, “The more inhospitable a moon appears, the more likely it is to find riches beneath its surface.” Those closer to Rory Swann see him as a prime example of this notion.

Planets Starcraft – New Folsom

Due to its rich mineral resources, attempts were made to set up mining colonies, but the first three attempts failed. New Folsom had the greatest concentration of catalytic elements in Confederacy territory. These are required to forge Neosteel.

Starcraft Units – Hellion

A fast expansion-raiding unit and anti-Melee unit when transformed into Hellbats. With a line of effect attack, the same range as a Marine’s attack, Hellions excel at fighting in Choke Points on maps. With a very slow cooldown on attack and fast movement , this unit requires a lot of attention and micro-management to be effective due to its nonexistent armor and low health.

Starcraft Missions – The Crucible

Run with Kerrigan (interrupted by the short sequence where you have to burrow the hive hosts) to your base and trigger the sequence. After that you can expand directly to the base east of your starting position (4), as this is hardly attacked by the Urzerg and is therefore easy to hold and you can use the resources well.

Starcraft Buildings – Spore Crawler

The Spore Crawler is a base anti-air static defense structure, which deals 15 points of damage to air units and has the ability to detect cloaked units. Although similar to the Spore Colony, the Spore Crawler has the distinct ability to Uproot itself and Root in a new location, giving it very good mobility and a more flexible use.

Starcraft


Starcraft is a turn-based . The active player receives the obligatory first player token, so it should always be clear whose turn is being played, and especially interesting: StarCraft does not require any dice at all.
To get started, you first have to agree on your faction, then gather all the necessary figures, cards and tokens of your faction (woe betide the game master who only starts sorting now!) and leave the table in the middle free, as this is where the galaxy, i.e. the playing field, is built.

This proceeds similarly to Twilight Imperium.

Each player draws two planet tokens, which they can use to pick their planets from the planet stack. This step is necessary because the planet cards are shaped differently and the tokens are the only way to ensure that the drawing is random.
The starting player then places his first planet in the center of the table and can already build a base – but he doesn’t have to, then he has to do it on his second planet as soon as he lays it out.
Once the first planet is in place, it is the next player’s turn to lay out his first planet and connect it to the previous player’s planet with a navigation route cardboard piece. The last player may lay out both planets at the same time and then it goes in reverse order to the starting player. This way a more or less interconnected galaxy is created.
Finally, Z-axes are laid, which are navigation routes across loose ends, sort of a 3D conversion.
Each player receives the corresponding resource cards for his two planets and then only the event cards are reduced according to the number of players, shuffled and placed on the board. There are three event card phases, which is symbolized by different card backs and should help the game to become faster and more powerful towards the end. Now the game can start.

Each round is divided into three phases.
