Well, some of you might know things about brood war, little things that not everyone knows, i will give you an example.

Mutalisks. Did you know that Mutalisks have a tongue?, and its tongue is a Gecko?, Try watching the preview in a game of a mutalisk, and keep looking at it for seconds, the mutalisk will flip out his tongue, and guess what, its a gecko. Very funny.

Reavers and Mines, The explosion of their atack are exactly the same image, blizzard only changed the mine explosion color to blue and thats what the explosion of a scarab looks like.

Esnare and Plague. Did you know that the Esnare and Plague not only are the same effect, and a change of the color. But they are also Just an effect of various Marines dying?
If you watch really carefully in a slow mode and watch the queen cast the Esnare or the Defiler cast the Plague, you will see that the formed effect, are just some marines dying in another color.

I dont remember any other now, but as soon as i do, i will post them. I know quite a few, post yours if you got one.
I am funny, is that clear?

i also never figured out why the sound effect of laying a mine and defilers's consume are the same. how hard was it to just make a new one for one of them?

thats actually a good point, its the same sound, and so different things!...

Anyway, another thing, not all of you know.

Zealot, Its the only small unit that can resist a Yamato Gun. yep thats right, do yamato gun to a zealot and you wont kill it...

you people seem to know everything ) I have a question.
Yesterday played a game TvZ, me T. I was gathering valkiries, at one point my friend, who was watching told me stop producing them because no more than 8 can shoot at a time. I argued, because it seemed stupid to me, but he explained me aboust some "sprites", which I couldn't understand. Is is true? Someone tested?

It's true, the actual amount of valkyrie rockets varies depending on what else is going on in the game.

10 valks is not enough
maybe like 50 will cause problems in a standard 1v1 game (or even 2v2)

I think the sprite limit is 1024. So 1024 things would have to fire at the same time (minus say 200-300 - depending on the number of dododads on a map)

each valk has 8rockets (sprites)..
I have returned

Eeek thats pretty cool. But also in the map "unitrace.scx" it seems that interceptors wont die to yamato gun if they are running away as fast as they can. Maybe I can get a rep of it.

A few strange things I've found through experimentation:

EMP shockwave wipes out mana on comsat stations.

Irradiated drone can be morphed into an irradiated building, same for defensive matrix etc.

Ensnared workers mine at the same rate.

If you manage to slide a siege tank beneath a landing building and siege it, it explodes.

If you manage to burrow units beneath a landing building, they die.

You can hallucinate cocoons and eggs. You can mind control larvae.
