Broodling
The Broodling is a small Zerg unit spawned when a Queen casts Spawn Broodling on a target. Two Broodlings spawn per spell cast. Upon their creation, they have a fixed amount of “energy” that represents their life span. Similar to Hallucinations, when this energy depletes, the Broodling automatically dies.
Spawn Broodling affects all ground units with the exception of:
- Probes
- Reavers
- Archons
- Dark Archons
Other important notes about Broodlings:
- Broodling energy is not affected by either Feedback or EMP Shockwave.
- Spawn Broodling fails if the Queen dies prior to the projectile connecting with its target.
- No Broodlings are spawned if the projectile hits a Hallucinated unit. However, the Hallucination is destroyed
ZERG
General Information
The Zerg are arguably the youngest race in the Starcraft universe, but as suddenly as they appeared, so rapidly did their numbers and power grow. With sharp claws, teeth and tusks, these savage beasts charge at their opponents and fight to the death without rhyme or reason. This boundless brutality and great willingness to sacrifice, combined with their large numbers, makes almost every opponent tremble.
Even though the organic building structures grow out of order and the attacks of the zerg hordes seem unplanned, it is known that they are commanded by a powerful being – the Overmind – with the help of psi powers. Since the Overmind is under Terran control, its most powerful creation – the assimilation Sarah Kerrigan – has seized command of the swarms.
