Watching this makes me realize just how balls to the wall Mass Recall was.

[@DaMnUFo0]

Fun fact: pre-placed lifted buildings are actually faster than buildings that are made in-game then lifted

[@k-leb4671]

Perhaps that was to make the start of this mission quicker.

[@Blazieth]

I love using that little island you start at to build all my Supply Depots on. I've never had the enemy send any ships at that island. Complete freedom to build up depots without taking up valuable space in your little canyon sunken base.

[@TheFranchiseCA]

Blazieth Love this idea. 10/10, would keep depots out of the way again.

[@dimbasz]

BTW Duke suddenly became a meme generator in the localization I've wanted for years. At the end of "Backwater station" he just yells at Raynor "SHUT UP YOU LITTLE SHIT!" instead of smooth-threatening "Now I asked you nice the first time boy". In the briefing of "Desperate alliance" he says "there's nothing sacred for you, outland fools!" instead of "you damn fringe world yokels are all alike, don't know where your loyalties lie". And finally in this mission, instead of funny enough "that's what I call sloppy!" he literally says "that's one EPIC screw up!".

[@Metalders]

"They're nothing compared to my Alpha Squadron boys." In brazilian portuguese they translated it to: "They get nowhere near the dirt under the boots of my Alpha Squadron boys." XD

[@retloclive9118]

I played the original starcraft A LOT back in the day, and yet I don't recall it ever dropping tanks on your mineral line on this level.

[@copywritingbyrazvan249]

I've played the original version today. Heck, this looks very, very good compared to the original version. I could swear Starcraft was better looking but I guess it was impressive in 2001, when I've first played it.

[@fyler1]

I love your commentary, and when you question something you switch to the classic version. Just found your playthrough and am loving it!

[@TheNobody1324]

Y'know, after all these years, I just realized that Mengsk is doing the exact same thing he said he was trying to prevent the Confederacy from doing. Using the Zerg as a weapon.

[@TRAVISHOWRYMUSIC]

Dude, lol dont tell people that you're stupid

[@hydrospectre4921]

I'm loving all your daily uploads of this campaign

[@Centurian128]

I always thought the Ghosts were wearing the Rebel Pilot jumpsuit from Star Wars but with night vision goggles. Looks rather different now.

[@ZS-rw4qq]

I clearly remember as a kid doing this mission with nukes and maybe 2 tanks and 3 goliaths, I really liked the sneaking

[@AgonifyeR24]

If you want this mission to go faster you can, at the beginning, sneak one of your commandcenters to the top left side of the map to get access to another source of vesbin gas.

[@MagicRiverofRadiantBrightness]

29:10 pew pew Do that more often. I have 14 months of your content to catch. Yay

[@RamArt9091]

. . . nice throwback to Blizzard's original ideas of the time. The ghost that was in front of the psi emitter had 6 fingers in each hand.

[@Goldenmaster94]

Arturo Ramírez lol true xD

[@ryanfrantz8994]

Psychics are weird...

[@machaiping]

I never use the pre-placed nuke silos because it forced your command center way out of optimal mining position which slow down income. So I placed my Command Center as close to minerals as possible to get Marine-Siege Tanks faster. Nuke just not very useful in SC1 and Broodwar.

[@TheFranchiseCA]

machaiping Yes! Especially the one on the left.

[@jasontimmons1715]

And if you weren't careful you'd nuke your own ghost.

[@MrPathorn]

I thought Norad II fell. They had time and resources to bring it back online?

[@kraigisboss]

I think it Norad I that fell to is probably one they managed to steal.

[@MrPathorn]

When he clicked on Duke. It said Norad II

[@juliano-nr-1]

it is Norad II, the sons of korhal repaired it

[@t.va.6611]

They did the same with Hyperion in novels.

[@theshambler6814]

I always found this mission extremely easy just because duke can cripple brown by him self. The ability to just send him in at the very start and 1 shot there infantry sets the a.i way behind and allows you to just stack cash and defend with a few marines and missles turrets. By the time you move to strike the killing blow to brown you have enough cash to make 3 of every production building and all the depos required to reach the supply cap. Then it's just smooth sailing from there.

[@Draeckon]

For this mission, I would always land the second CC closer to the minerals and build a third on the silo if I felt like using it. But I usually prefer to just use ghosts on the first base and move to goliaths and tanks, with wraith support, and Duke following along to yamato things where needed. Relying on nukes to do the bulk of the damage slows you waaaaaay down.

[@mark31125]

My favourite mission~~ :)

[@porksausageninja]

Duke is John Wayne

[@KaitouHAX]

the orange starport is in range of siege tanks from the minerals location

[@SeriousApache]

Leave 1 SCV at starting platform, build supply armory etc with him.

[@Roamingfirebat]

There was a Japanese TV show called battle ship Yamato when I was a kid ( I grew up in Japan that is why I'm a freelance translator part time) Wait Yamato cannon is the main cannon on the battle ship Yamato And it's in SC1 ??????? Is there a connection that I don't know about

[@matheusadornidardenne8684]

Yamato is a reference to a japanese super-battleship back in WW2. This battleship had a battery of cannons that fired 460mm rounds (the biggest ever) that could sink any ship with a direct hit. Both Starcraft's and Battle Ship Yamato's "Yamato Cannon" are a reference to that beast of the asian seas.

[@arnowisp6244]

Matheus Adorni Dardenne and it sunk cause it was outnumbered. Didnt have much support to back it up. Like tanks without infantry support.

[@matheusadornidardenne8684]

Absolutely! And if I recall correctly, the US sent fricking 200 aircrafts and half a dozen ships to attack it, and Yamato still destroyed a huge part of the attacking force. Japaneses are an incredible people, when they want to get things done, things get done.

[@TheFranchiseCA]

Matheus Adorni Dardenne Yamato destroyed few aircraft and no surface vessels during Operation Ten-Go. Neither was it particularly effective during the Battle off Samar, the only time it engaged surface vessels with its primary weapons, but a chase of a much lighter opposing force of destroyers and escort carriers wasn't what such a ship was built for. Her sister, Musashi, never fought a surface engagement before being sunk by aircraft during Leyte Gulf. They never had the chance to fire on cruisers, let alone stand toe to toe and trade shells with the USN's South Dakota or Iowa-class or the RN's Nelson or George V-class BBs. Yamato was built for WW1 tactics, but it was hard to know at the time it was constructed that naval warfare would so thoroughly switch to being carrier-focused. Battleships were too vulnerable to torpedoes and bombs to be cost effective. This shift was so pronounced the US stopped producing battleships before the war ended, and altogether abandoned the class once the Iowa-class could no longer be upgraded. No BB which started construction after 1941 was finished by any nation.

[@loumencken9644]

@@matheusadornidardenne8684 The Yamato did not sink a "huge part" of any attacking force. Here is the pathetic war record of it and the other two battleships of the Yamato class: Yamato- at Leyte Gulf, it turned tail and ran when its task force were attacked with suicidal bravery by a few US destroyers and escort carriers. Later sunk by US aircraft. Musashi- sunk at Leyte Gulf by US aircraft. It never fired a shot at a US ship. Shinano- converted to an aircraft carrier before it was completed as a battleship. Neither the ship nor its planes ever fired a shot in anger since it was sunk by a US submarine before it could do so. In short, the Yamato and its sister ships were impressive-on-paper behemoths that were completely useless in battle and a staggering waste of resources.

[@SeriousApache]

Build 3rd command center to get comsat, destroy 1 nuclear silo... Why can't you just land 2ns command center closer to gas and make comsat with it?

[@KaiserMattTygore927]

Classic mission, one of the ones I remember the most back when I was a kid playing this game for the first time on the N64. and yeah, Sc1's story and story telling is MILEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES ahead of SC2.

[@kamilb4941]

This is kind of an opportunity to show the player how OP Terran Ghosts are. The AI won't scan cloaked ghosts when they are nuking (only when the ghosts use their guns). Since they start you out with 2 nuke silos, an easy way to win is to double nuke the enemy production buildings / Command Centers. GG EZPZ

[@jasontimmons1715]

I've been scanned and assaulted while nuking, I try to stay away from it cause I don't like having to watch one guy and make sure he lives for the 15 seconds it takes from the nuke to drop.

[@andrewhengy7631]

I also realized a few years ago that you're always playing as the outlier or rookie in these campaigns.

[@HolyknightVader999]

Not really. In the UED campaign, you're playing as the Admiral's left hand. In the Zerg campaign, you're the Overmind's pet cerebrate who gets to toast the Protoss homeworld.

[@valentinom.4292]

@@HolyknightVader999 You're the new cerebrate

[@blase777]

you kinda neglected the armory upgrades, but overall gg. i have the impression that Terran campaign in SC1 is pretty easy. The hardest missions didn't start until the Protoss campaign.

[@valentinom.4292]

Zerg's final mission is hard

[@biomail86]

He said nucular :D

[@emxprod3161]

Where is war3?

[@JayborinoPlays]

Videos on Tuesday and Friday for a long time now.

[@freekingfreaking246]

Did you nuke two firebats? O.o

[@k-leb4671]

I feel like the design of this mission is a bit stupid. Nukes and Ghosts are very gas-costly, yet there's only one geyser in the starting base. Why?! If the developers really wanted us to mess around with nukes, they should've given us the necessary gas income to comfortably afford it. Secondly, two Nuke Silos at the beginning is excessive, and basically everyone would want one of those abandoned add-ons to be a ComSat Station. You can always build more silos later. Thirdly, there's too little space in the starting area to really take advantage of add-ons or even just build enough Supply Depots and Missile Turrets. And to top it all off, it's an easy mission anyway! Duke can solo most things, and there's nothing to worry about once you nuke Brown's base. Also they give you all these floating buildings at the start, but not an Engineering Bay despite the fact that it can float too?! And only 3 Wraiths?!
