Starcraft Heroes – Tassadar

Tassadar is an excellent example of the problems faced by the ever-widening rift that cuts across Protoss society. Born into a new generation that faces a dynamic future, Tassadar feels paralyzed by the rigid attitude with which the ancients cling to the past. Tassadar feels that the inflexible nature of the Protoss and their inability to rethink ancient traditions will be the downfall of his race. Fascinated by the power and mysticism of the renegade Dark Templar Caste,

Planets Starcraft – Kaldir

A moon of the gas giant Midr IV, Kaldir is among the coldest terrestrial locations in the Koprulu Sector. Its upper atmosphere rejects heat and allows almost no sunlight to reach the surface. For this reason, only two native life forms have been discovered on Kaldir to date. One of these, a species of extremophile bacteria, serves as the power source for the others: a group of brutal Ursadons.

Starcraft Units – Mothership

The Protoss Motherships are massive spacecraft developed centuries ago during the Protoss Golden Age of Expansion. As command ships, they would escort vast fleets of Protoss explorers into the dark depths of space and home safely. Those days are long gone. The remaining motherships later became Protoss sacred shrines, commemorating honorable existence and proud periods in Protoss history.

Starcraft Missions – Veterans

For this mission, the presence of “Ferocious Mutation” is a crucial advantage. This makes it easy to destroy the base in the east (1) in the beginning and in the golden expansion (2) without any major problems, since the and don’t actually die before they can do the damage to the units.

Starcraft Buildings – Stargate

The Stargate is a unit producing structure for the Protoss, responsible for producing most of the Protoss air units. It requires a Cybernetics Core before it can be warped in. The Stargate produces the Phoenix, Oracle and the Void Ray, and after the Fleet Beacon is completed, the Stargate can also warp in the Carrier and the Tempest.

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 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.
