Here's hoping that the first trailer consists of marines missing almost every shot while getting slaughtered by hidden enemies. Perfectly matches my first X-COM experience :D

This is wow.
Yeah, wow. The quality and the ability to change direction like that are both incredible.

Also, at least parts of it are from Up. Took me a while to realize that, though.
No shit?

*listens again*

Huh, that's kinda bizarre. I didn't think my headphones were capable of stuff like that.

Wish the song actually made sense though.

You mean aside from the fact that atheism does not have a clergy, holy texts, divine laws, ceremonies, or anything that the term "church" could imply?
Sounds to me like it'd be pretty easy to be an atheist priest, then.
I can clear this up right now. I am an ordained minister of the official, definite-articled First Church of Atheism. It is extraordinarily easy, it took less seconds than I can count on my fingers. (In trinary using my knuckles.)
So would this mean that I wouldn't have to pay taxes anymore? :D

You forgot scourges.

That's because he listed the SC2 units and not the BW ones.

A great deal of the stuff you'll see in BW has very little relevance to SC2, as most of it isn't possible. That said, the potential for volatility in BW was definitely something... even if it wasn't part of the intended design. I suppose that steers this post a little back on topic: It's funny when you realise that the entire basis of competitive video games evolved purely by accident and metagame development unseen by the designers. Street Fighter 2's combo system and the entire metagame? Accident. Quake physics/rocket jumping, map control? Accident. Insane StarCraft micro? Accident.
Eh?

IIRC, scourges were in the original SC. They were the zerg's most cost-effective weapon against battlecruisers and especially carriers.

Do not click that link. Sirus is not kidding, FSDT will at some point make your head explode.
You just need to build up your immunity. Start with some of the classic, hilarious ones, or maybe the conspiracy theory section. Don't visit the racist section until you're truly prepared; some of the quotes in there will make strong men (and women) weep.

Name the pilot Clarke or something.

Also, ask the AI how much it would cost to hire a comms specialist.

Truean, I didn't expect you to be all that into StarCraft.  :o

I think I'll show the Boxer vs. JulyZerg video to one of my friends, though. Specifically the one (this is the WTF moment) who insists that we have a chance at winning the world tournament, or at least placing. He's pretty good, but nothing like that. I personally don't even know what all the Zerg units are named. I just play Protoss and get really lucky. (I've beaten him a couple times, he thinks I planned it.)

Drone, Larvae (but they don't really count), Overlord, Zergling, Roach, Hydralisk, Mutalisk, Ultralisk, Corrupter, Broodlord, Baneling, Queen, Overseer, Infestor, Broodlings, and I suppose infested Terrans count.

WHY DO I KNOW THIS
You forgot scourges.

Better not visit Fundies Say the Darndest Things. If that ^^^^^ stuff raises your blood pressure, the stuff on that site would probably kill you.

We don't need a storage module until we have resources to store. Skip the storage space and save some money.

What about mining modules and stuff like that? I assume weapons will be unlocked later, but right now I'm not seeing any way to make money.

What's the cargo capacity of the shuttle vs the Mk1 Cargo Bay?
