StarCraft Remastered: The Queen of Blades 03 - The Kel-Morian Combine

[@Raducu2oo5]

I loved the "of course, they arent stupid Duran"...like a "why did I infest this dumbass?"

[@t.va.6611]

Afaik they never revealed how Duran and Kerrigan came in to a contact.

[@Raducu2oo5]

they were "mutual" friends as she told DuGalle...so facebook im guessing

[@edmis90]

19:30 You barely get attacked because you're spending your resources well. On this map, the enemy have triggers every 2k minerals to up their aggression.

[@DinDin1337]

Fun fact: Since there's no bank data in StarCraft I, there are actually six map files for the next mission. The number of Infested Command Centers you own at this mission's completion determines which of the six maps are loaded for the next mission. The only difference among the maps is the number of pre-placed Infested Command Centers. I think this also means that Episode 6 has the most maps of the six episodes in StarCraft I.

[@Raducu2oo5]

I guess that answered my above question...does it base it on the moment you infest it to trigger it or at the end of the map? (like if I infest them all but lose them during this mission, I won't get any next map?)

[@DinDin1337]

I don't remember exactly, but the infested command centers are likely counted at the end of the map. So, if you lost all of them and won the mission, you wouldn't have any in the next mission.

[@hnkul702]

+Raducu2oo5 I've checked the triggers on this map. There is a switch that flips on when you reach 10,000 minerals, at which point the game checks how many infested command centers you have. That switch is what decides which map you get next.

[@DrewHengy]

The most ironic part of this mission is it has no green Terran, typically representing the Kel-Morian Combine.

[@t.va.6611]

You mean Teal-Blue? Well, that's because Fenix had to have this colour.

[@fernandosa4893]

Que si?

[@Karl_Allen]

Just in case I'm not the only one playing this campaign in 2022 and you can't figure out how to "save" the infested command centers, the save isn't in this mission. Play through it, infest the CC's but then you can't quit after the mission is over. Let it go right into the next mission, then save. If you quit and come back to the next mission some other time you will not have any infested CC's. Took me a while to figure that out, then I had to go back and do this mission all over again. Thankfully there are cheat codes so it didn't take very long the 2nd time :)

[@twZera413]

So fun-fact, I'm almost certain Blue and White aren't active until you pass an invisible line going across the map at roughly the height of that rocky ground patch where brown likes to siege tanks to attack. So unless you're prepared to defend against nukes early on, attacking Red might be your best bet. Note: I'm likely not entirely correct on the location of this line, since I don't have the mpq extractor at hand to check, but anecdotal experience says the line is somewhere on that rock patch's map height.

[@UEDAIP]

Later AIs start their attacks only after you reach a certain amount of resources, its script based, not trigger based, though. Orange doesnt work at all.

[@porksausageninja]

Yeah Bone Horror's right. You can download scaiedit to look at the AI scrpts. The lower Terran bases start attacking after the player owns a hatchery, and all of the Terran bases have different attack patterns based on the amount of resources the player has gathered, which is done by the function "enemyresources_jump". The orange AI just goes idle after a while. It stops sending attacks

[@hnkul702]

@@porksausageninja I have no idea how SCAIEdit works but I'm interested. How do you view the AI scripts?

[@gokuissuperman5590]

Twice in this level I infested and stole a terrain command centre very early on in attacking the base (Red and orange). Nothing like your only resource deposit building floating up and away from you just as the swarms start up. This also deprives the base of resources which means: they can only repair and build for a limited time after, and that there are more minerals left over for you when all is said and done- as they can’t continue mining.

[@eulogp9888]

When you beat 3 terran factions or maybe even 4 and feel comfortable, the goods are flowing, you hear the sound, that sound you didn't hear since the Hammer Falls and never wanted to hear it again: "Nuclear Launch Detected"

[@ButaneBoss]

38:21 "OK, nevermind. Don't destroy them. It's fine, I didn't want you to anyway. It was a joke." Another fucking amazing Jay quote.

[@gokuissuperman5590]

21:30- 21:39 Your Queen was killed by a turret while Fenix was talking.

[@piZZa4everRulz]

always found this mission really hard because I always wanted all of the command centers

[@dimbasz]

There's a senior lady who has won the biggest lottery prize in the modern Russian history about a month ago. All taxes aside she got approx. 6 million dollars. Major news channels showed a series of spots about her and just one week later she said there already were several cases of blackmailing, shakedown and begging for help.

[@t.va.6611]

It always bugged me that that you can't set Infested Terrans on auto-attack because they will kill themselves in the pointes spot instead of attack anything on their way.

[@UEDAIP]

You can avoid this by having IT's + a different unit selected - then they attack the nearest enemy after a-moving

[@SeriousApache]

Your Ultralisk got stuck because Refinery and Assimilator (not sure about Extractor) has slightly less hitbox then vespine geyser (make no sence, that's why you didn't expect this) I got same problem when my Zealot stuck after destroying Assimilator.

[@Draeckon]

Your ultralisk got stuck because refineries/assimilators/extractors have a slightly different hitbox than the natural geysers - the geysers are slightly wider, hence the gap between it and the minerals was suddenly too narrow for the Ultralisk to get out. If you watch units passing by the structures, you can actually see them clip through part of the sprite, but they can't do that for the geysers themselves.

[@biembi445]

This mission is a lot of fun (:

[@Chaod789]

I'm only about half way through the video but I'm surprised you haven't just spawned broodling on the tanks... cheap and easy and instakill.

[@Chaod789]

You can on siege tanks unless they changed something in remastered, it was OP in Brood War. The lore reason behind it was the human operator inside.

[@DaMnUFo0]

Man, I don't understand why some people answer questions so carelessly without even bothering to look for the correct answer. It's like in another video I saw, some people claimed the AI queen will spawn broodling your hero when that is 10000% false and still some people upvoted that comment believing it to be true. Holy jesus. YOU CAN SPAWN BROODLING a siege tank, good sir. Next time, please do your research before answering... just please. /rant

[@KrazyDanProductions]

Ballsy strategy going after the red base first given they have cloaked wraiths and siege tanks on high ground. I don't think I've ever made the 2nd base on the cliff over top my first, instead the 2nd base, protected by Fenix I place smack dab in the middle of the map where it has inroads to orange, red, and blue. Given orange base doesn't do much(at least in the original game) they're a great first conquest, followed closely by brown, red, blue, and finally white. I usually send a full group of ultralisks into red base to soak up the damage from the tanks while my hydra's clear up everything else.

[@DrewHengy]

7:16 a great movie sir.

[@exer2000]

You didn't save at the end of the mission. Will it be ok?

[@JayborinoPlays]

Yeah dawg we good

[@Raducu2oo5]

if you lose your command centers during this mission, do you still get them next mission just because you infested them?

[@SuperiorAmericanGuy]

The queen of blades campaign is a dark campaign due to what happened at the end.

[@Raducu2oo5]

Also just realized the "remastered" view of the default zerg icon (cerebrate) with the "double vision" is so weird to look at...kinda makes me dizzy. Had no problem in the original SC tho.

[@bobbybkh1471]

How do you know if an enemy bunker is full?

[@DeathDragon5000]

The only way to remotely tell that is if you just assume that there are soldiers in there or you saw them enter the bunker or if there shooting your units but there's no way to tell how many unless again you saw them

[@marcisb73]

Planet Moria - Lord of the Rings reference?

[@jackdaone6469]

So you can infest 4 command centers without triggering the victory? I thought that you won once you infested 4.

[@hnkul702]

You win once you have 10,000 minerals; there is a trigger that sets your mineral count to 10,500 once there are no command centers left on the map. Since there are a total of 5, infesting 4 will not trigger a victory if the last one is still alive.

[@iancastt]

Next i want someone to make sc2 remake into starcraft remastered

[@iancastt]

And jaybourino to showcase it ofcs

[@pattarinhompluem1916]

Wow incredible

[@davidtimmer596]

Moria? What is this, Lord of the Rings?
