Starcraft Heroes – Matt Horner

Matt Horner spent his youth as the second son of a minor trader on Tyrador IX, and from an early age craved a change from his easy and uneventful life. That change was promised by the tales of a passing trader, about a tyrannical empire and brave men and women who wanted to liberate the land.

Planets Starcraft – Shiloh

Shiloh is a temperate rim planet that was initially ignored by the settlers due to its low metal supplies. They instead focused on planets that enabled industry and space trade. It was only after the richer, central worlds were mapped, settled, and established that Shiloh caught the interest of the colonists.

Starcraft Units – Sentry

The Sentry is an unusual Protoss spell-casting unit produced from the Gateway after the Cybernetics Core has been built. The Sentry’s spells are very powerful: Force Field, Guardian Shield, and Hallucination. These spells — Force Field in particular – are considered essential capabilities in almost all Protoss strategies.

Starcraft Missions – Harbinger of Death

As the overview already says, this scenario is all about your micromanagement skills. Tactical tips are not really helpful here. You just have to be quick. First of all, in this scenario, you cannot use abilities with the mouse. Only hotkeys work. With a lot of practice, however, this scenario should also be manageable.

Starcraft Buildings – Templar Archives

The Templar Archives is a structure on the Protoss Technology Tree that unlocks the High Templar spell caster unit and the Psionic Storm upgrade. The Templar Archives requires a Twilight Council before it can be warped in.

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.
