Now yes, heros are immune to that, but how many heros are you going to have against how many myth units like that?

Fun fact about Cerebate killing: The triggers _can not_ actually check who does the killing blow. Instead, there is a simple trigger that respawns the cerebrate building. It is disabled if a Dark Templar is roughly in the area. So no reason to hold back the rest of your forces. Once the DT are hugging it, the Cerebrate is dead. You could do a "no melee" challenge and still beat the Cerebrates both times.

I hate to be one of those guys, but I think Grant made the Countdown harder for himself than it should've been. As an upstanding Random Person on the Internet™, I loaded the game and tried it myself. In the end I could beat the mission without losing a unit with the following composition: 24 scouts, 3 corsairs, 200+ photon cannons. As much as people like to meme on scouts, they are actually quite good in a couple of situations. First, they take 3 scourge hits to go down, and with their speed upgrade, they actually outrun the scourge and provide plenty of room for micro, being also able to return to base to refill on shields. On top of that, a control group of scouts with +3 attack is fairly decent at focus-firing any hydras, spore colonies, queens, mutas and guardians, struggling really only with ultralisks, which fortunately never learned to jump and chew on the Golden Armada's hulls. 3 corsairs also can disable up to 6 spore colonies or other high-threat targets if needed. Otherwise, they are not very useful since scouts are still better at dealing with air units. But the meat of this strategy is, of course, the photon cannons. Grant for some reason refused to get and fortify more bases, which I think was the biggest mistake, and also most of his minerals went into scarab production. The one and only thing that can threaten a base surrounded by photon cannons (even more exposed ones), is guardians. And besides the fact that often guardians are stupid and fly into cannons on their own accord, you may have guessed this already - scouts absolutely pulverize guardians. So, I used scouts and corsairs to defeat Red, surrounded all my bases with copious amounts of cannon, sniped any guardians with scouts, and the zerg couldn't even get close to the temple or any of my other units. ... ... ... And I still had to reset a couple of times because of defilers.

Ah I've been looking forward to this one for ages! Brood war has so much nostalgia for me and this released the day I had a boring train journey, perfect : - ) I was glad to see you going for the command centres and SCVs on True Blood, my strategy was always to go snipe the Nexus/Command Centres and SCVs/Probes, always took a few tries but if it works the enemy can't do anything (to the extent that the mission becomes kinda boring). Heart-breaking to see you spawn broodling on noble Fenix, that poor guy. Also it's hilarious how much you consistently hate the Kel-Morian Combine, I used to love that one but the frustration is understandable and funny. Really enjoyed this one, especially the parts where the voiceover drops out and we just hear the diagetic BW music and sound effects, they're really effective (on that point, why use the SC2 music in the background of the voiceover when SC1 has such good music!). I'd love to see more SC1/BW vids but I'm excited for whatever comes next!

the puzzle strategy missions are great, another great thing with the BW campaigns is the multiple victory missions. in protoss you have return to char, fight the overmind or steal the crystal, simple enough but a great look at an OR mission. in terran we had assault on korhal, battlecruisers or nukes, and even better the next mission actually integrates your choice into the mission. creating 2 very different missions. in zerg we get the Kel-morian combine, the basic objective to get 10,000 cash and move on is amazing because you start off the next mission drowning in money, but it has a secret objective, because you can capture the command centers. not only does capturing all the command centers win the mission regardless of the cash you collect, but also brings the command centers into the next mission. (which also means there are 6 possible variations of the mission with is mind boggling on it's own) but these 5(11) missions really build up on the idea that it's a real war, your actions matter and the way they train you, starting early with "hey, you have choices" moving into "hey your choices matter." and just taking that idea as far as the engine can handle it. it really shows the passion that they use to have. it's to bad they didn't keep it.

I think for Zerg Brood War mission 6, holding up the Player 5’s (Orange) Zerg Wave until they despawned (and maybe killing the Lurkers too) messed with all the switches in the mission’s triggers for Player 5. Normally, Orange destroys the northern towns, then an Area Town trigger for the northern towns that is ALSO paired with the Main Town AI Script activates through series of switch triggers (this holds true for Brown Player 6 for the southern towns). Some switches normally clear, some are set, some are cleared by others being set, and others set by being others being cleared (there’s so many for both Players 5 and 6; Orange and Brown respectively). This is probably what broke the Orange Zerg’s AI behavior for Fury of the Swarm from functioning normally and seemingly going ballistic lol.

I was thinking it had something to do about that, though I've never seen the map editor version of these misions. Also the AI going ballistic over random places probably has to do with the fact that in SC1 map editor you can't create new locations during gameplay, every location has to be created beforehand. You can move already existing locations with triggers afterwards tho. So what's probably happening is that locations that trigger AI priorities on defense are placed in some weird places on the map, just to get moved to the bases after they are built. But if they never get moved because the triggers got broken after preventing the bases gwtting built, they just stayed in those weird placed. Which means you can actually learn which places to avoid to trigger the AI reaction. I actually love SC1 AI and map editor. It's overall so simple yet you can do a lot with those limited options. That also means there are so many ways to break it as you have to do lots of weird turnarounds to get the game do what you want.

@@andresv.9365 there’s a way to extract the missions themselves from the MPQ files (as well as the WAV files). SCM Draft 2 is needed to open them though due to how they’re saved, but you can see the triggers after opening the campaign missions. Brood War Zerg Mission 6 has a lot of trigger switches that are chained and paired to each other in the first 2-3 minutes of the game. The initial Zerg attack waves are part of those trigger switches. Player 5’s opening assault wave being blocked for the entirety of this time is what seemingly broke up the trigger switches and how the Orange AI would behave for the rest of the mission. I even checked for a ‘Value This Area Higher at Anywhere’ to see if it could explain the AI broken attack and defense patterns, but no such thing was present. Only the Brood Wars Mission 6 Main Town and Area Town (Area Town being assigned at the northern town locations) after the northern Purple Towns were destroyed.

Never thought this would be achievable. I dropped the run on the Zerg campaign because sciense vessels can kill everything below Devourer's HP (250) by just casting Irradiate, Overlords being a common target. Incredible video and amazing out-of-the-box thinking. I enjoy watching this, every single upload you make there is something new to learn

Heck yes, love that you took out the Terran's Command Centers! I figured that SC1 AI genuinely needs to mine minerals in order to produce, so, whenever doing that mission I've ALWAYS taken out both the factions CCs/Nexuses and Probes/SCVs. Rest of the mission is a cakewalk from there.
