Starcraft 2 Commentary – No. 22 (T)ballerscuba vs. (Z)Spexs Part 2 – StarCraft eSports

Starcraft Heroes – Graven Hill

Graven Hill’s battle scars and long list of black market contacts belied a little of his good upbringing on Umoja. As a youth he was supposed to be a politician, like his father and mother, but Graven always found politics unfulfilling and useless.

Planets Starcraft – Mar Sara

Mar Sara was the eighth colony world settled by the former Terran Confederation. Although the planet is rather desolate and remote, its mining industry was once considered a key strategic resource. He was overrun by the Zerg and later cremated by the Protoss. Intrepid Terrans terraformed the planet and recolonized it in 2502.

Starcraft Units – Phoenix

The Phoenix is a fast and deadly starship that is increasingly replacing the older Scouts and Corsairs as fighters. Phoenix patrols are a common sight, especially at the limits of their territory, where they seek out and repel any threat from space. The Phoenix’s twin ion blasters are excellent for aerial duels and can also be used to fight against light ground units.

Starcraft Missions – Hand of Darkness

This mission allows another impressive demonstration of the fact that Mutalisks are extremely strong with +200 HP and an attack bonus. Accordingly, you should prepare yourself for the production of these very early on and also research the corresponding upgrades for air forces and armor.

Starcraft Buildings – Fleet beacon

The Fleet Beacon is a structure on the Protoss Technology Tree that unlocks capital ship level air units, specifically the Carrier and the Tempest at the Stargate and the Mothership at the Nexus. The Fleet Beacon also contains an ability upgrade for the Protoss fleet: the Phoenix’s Anion Pulse-Crystals upgrade, which increases the attack range of the Phoenix.

Starcraft


Starcraft is a turn-based game. 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 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.
