"also you need the patches (and there are people who have them) otherwise the game "crashes 5times per hour" (that's what I heard from some people who have the beta)"

could a link possibly be given? or the patches torrented up on the tracker?

Is this the pre-release version that was once dubbed "Orcs in Space", with the ugly zerg units, etc?

no it's something like starcraft 1.00, without single player, map editor, or working multiplayer. you can find posts of people who tried to play it on few forums and most of them said that the game crashed all the time if you managed to run a server

I find it pretty amusing that one of the patches adds the map editor and guess what, the person who has the patch and doesnt want to publish it.. creates map editing stuff.
he is also said to have brood war beta cd, but never bothered to check what the "red-blue" archons were

sounds easier to just use some kind of vlan software to create a virtual network, then you can just play ipx games over it. There is a really good free software to do this, i just dont remember what its called :/ Theres also zone.net or whatever it is, that lets you play ipx games online.
