There are also references embedded in the names of characters themselves: - Tom Kazansky (Wraith hero) is a character in the movie Top Gun - Gui Montag (Firebat hero) is a reference to Guy Montag, the protagonist of Ray Bradbury's novel Fahrenheit 451 - The protoss units and titles are not really "pop culture" references but rather historical references. "Archon" means "Ruler" in Greek, and was the title of a public official in Athens. "Praetor" was the title of a public Roman official. "Templar" is a rather obvious reference to the Knights Templar. "Dragoon" refers to a class of mounted infantry which was first employed in the British army in the 18th century; as a matter of fact, modern military regiments still use the name "Dragoon" (e.g. US 1st Cavalry Regiment).

The science vessel being voiced by Harry Shearer is one of those urban myths so common it somehow made it onto wikipedia, but it isn't actually true sadly.

the Terrans are actually a reference to Humanity!

[@trinalgalaxy5943]

Terran derives from the word Terra and suffix an. Terra being the latin word for Earth (or the goddess of earth) and the suffix an turning the word into a noun of belonging. therefore a Terra-an or Terran is a being from Terra. while exclusivly used by science fiction for human, it is not a fancy reference to humans, just a formation of a word similar to ROMAN (Rome + an).

It's both, but he failed to mention the double reference. Edit: That is to say, he explained how it was a double reference prior, but then failed to mention that in addition to meaning he has to pee, it's also a play on telling his second in command to assume command of the bridge.

Well here's something that's hidden in the game files. There's unused sound effects for Terrain and Zerg building when they are unpowered, just like Protoss buildings when not next to a pylon, but Zerg and Terrain buildings can't be unpowered in the normal game!

[@BryantVonMiller]

I remember reading across many forums and how they wanted to have Zerg buildings attached to creep, and have what they do in sc2. Zerg move and attack faster on creep, slower without. But due to time constraints and being unable to find suitable ways to balance creep buildings, producing lots of creep. But finding it near impossible. Due to testers focusing on creep colony's, effectively crippling and making zerg the weakest in the game. So they scrapped that project until later. I am more then likely wrong, maybe mis-remembering. Who knows. I just remember reading this across a few forums years, years ago. When I was a teenager, in the infancy of the internet. For all I know, this was fan theories and speculation

Both of those ended up being used in the hidden bonus campaign Enslaver. About the Walkyrie being german this is the theme of the UED, to show that they're actually from Earth and not just space texans like the Terrans.

Aww man, you shouldve gone more into Raynor's lines, those were my third favorite (after science vessel and battlecruiser) "Hey, Quit it!" "What's your problem man?" "Look commander, do you mind?" "I KNEW I should've stayed in bed this mornin'."

You just popped on my KZbin feed. I'm glad you did.

This makes this game that much better.

Oh man, this was awesome, I remembered catching a few of them back then. I loved it when not everything was about multiplayer ironically this was one of the games that launched so strong those online battles across gamers.

I really liked the beginning of how you put your portrait animation there very creative

When the battle cruiser says "set a the course, make it happen" is based on Patrick Stewart saying "make it so".
