Beyond the Galactic Rim, three species vie for supremacy. Take command of any of their awesome forces, but choose your alliances carefully -- the fate of the galaxy rests in your hands...
IT IS A TIME OF CRISIS...
Three of the most powerful forces in the universe head on a collision course in a galaxy held at the brink of destruction. The only choice is war and the only allies are enemies.
Starcraft is Blizzard's upcoming real-time strategy game of
galactic conflict. They don't have a release date at this time
for Starcraft or the shareware/demo, but we all are awaiting it
anxiously! The biggest difference from WarII is that Starcraft
features three main races, each of which has unique units, buildings,
and abilities. The 3 Races consisit of the following:
Terrans
: Descendants of modern humans. The Terrans will be the
race most familiar to real-time strategy gamers. They can build
mobile bases and scavenge resources from wreckage.
Protoss
: A race of highly advanced psychics. They have better technology
than the Terrans, and can use special psychic abilities in combat,
but aren't as prolific.
Zerg
: Actually several different species of creatures, the Zerg are a
mysterious, predatory group of biological terrors. Their units
appear to be specially bred, rather than manufactured.
There will be a map editor, which will include the ability to create
custom campaigns, alter scenario objectives, and more. There will be
built-in cheat codes for Starcraft. If used during a multiplayer game,
they will affect all players (as in Warcraft II). Naturally, the creator
of a multiplayer game will have the option of disabling cheats.
