I insist, insist, insist, that broodwar would have been twice as fun, and twice as balanced with the two following changes to zerg.

A.) Hatcheries would have been worth 2 control

5 hatcheries would equal 1 command center in control, which is balanced when you figure that terran is climbing the tech tree, and zerg need 3 hatch per base to get the necessary production to compete with terran's tech.

This also eliminates any need to do 1 or 2x gas trick.

It still follows the 2 same 1 different pattern found in the data structure of the game.

Starting control values

Z- 10
T- 10
P- 9


B.) That the overlord was capable of landing, but NOT capable of lifting back off, the consequence being a loss of mobility and usage as a dropper.

By landing, it would be confined to that spot, and then have a creep radius begin to form around it.

This would also be AMAZING for doing attacks like defense rushes, etc.

Brood war is not the game to propose radical balance changes. It's a miracle we're here where we are today.
