Starcraft 2

Apparently Asia/Oceania aren't region locked.

It is locked to two severs. North America and South East Asia. Mainly due to the problems for English speaking Aussie/New Zealand, who otherwise would only be playing against Korean's, etc, who don't type English and how many Aussies/New Zealanders play on North American servers on WOW.

I mainly used Thor's in that mission, but those Protoss beamy cannons were annoyings since they are outside a Thor's Anti Air range.

Pumped Goliaths. Strengthened base with 6 missile turrets and 3 perdition turrets. Apart from easily succeeding the main mission, the side quest turned out to be child's play as well.

I left the last canister picker SVC right next to the command center so that I could freely roam whole map and sweep anything I come across with about 30 Goliaths I had.

Oh boy, they have an impenetrable base at the top of the map, whole army torn into pieces despite finishing off an army of equivalent numbers, the Protoss base was swarming with ships. Anyway, still a success.

I basically did you what did, but added some marines, marauders, and firebats into the mix. You really only need a siege tank, a bunker full of marines, and 2 missile turrets to guard your base.

Well maybe I'm an idiot but the campaing seems to be designed so that the unit introduced with the relevant mission works out alone. Yeah it does. I passed it all to that point that way, and even the mission where those "transformer" units are met for the first time. I mean I pump only the units introduced, nothing else, if not so less to be insignificant, and get the mission accomplished.

Just redid the level, if you kill all the protess on it, you get an achievement called "you're so crazy!" which comes under feat of strength

I felt like playing some real short PvP matches and hadn't fired up SC2 for a few months, so I figured I'd go win or lose for a little bit.
I can't even get the d@&n thing started. This stupid game has been patching itself for the past 23 minutes and says it has 13 more to go. Thank you Blizzard. Just imagine if I wanted to fire up just to continue my single player game. Feh, between this and getting homered by the platinum users I always end up playing is it any wonder I have started to turn my back on the click-fest online MP experience. Not another dime from me...

As for my take on SC2 (when I can play it). Nicer graphics, otherwise it's just like playing SC1.

I'm going to bed...

P.S. I now have a copy of Rome Total War and Medieval 2 Total War. I fully intend to ingratiate my PvP recreation online and playing LAN games with my friends. I am done wasting my time with the latest semi-brainless RTS fodder offered. Hopefully this community stays strong and CA doesn't screw up a good thing trying to be like the others.
I'd rather play a good game of chess or stratego than the likes of SC2 again...
