So just randomly the other day my boss was asking me about what games I play, and of course, I casually mentioned how I still spent way too much time on a nine year old computer game.

One of the first things he does when he got back to the office today was tell me about how he had read about SC and SC2 during his business trip and how he kind of wanted to play a computer game. Next thing I know he's placing an order for the battle chest on Amazon.

It'll arrive at the office on Monday.

This sounds like a tricky situation. Will it be like golf with the boss where you need to let the boss win or face a resentful boss?

Well he could do that but then he could create another account and relentlessly rape him for the remainder of the day.

yeah or he should probably just do team stuff with the boss (comp stomps....UMS.... 4v4 bgh in that order) instead of trying to train him 1v1

That's so awesome, being able to share such a big interest with your superior. How old is your boss anyway, and what kind of personality does he portray usually? For example, is he laid-back and easygoing, or is he usually strict and old-school?

Back when I was in high school I used to play Brood War with a couple of my teachers.

Since I am agnostic a pastor (and one of my patients) thinks I am ripe for picking and is always giving me stuff to read, a bible included, which I have yet to read any off it.. so one day I gave him a battle chest as a return favor. He plays StarCraft now. He does not give me any pamphlets and shit anymore.

Same here. I actually played a game of BW vs my Physics teacher during class once. It was the last lesson of the year, so we were allowed to have some fun. Sadly I got raped, with a capital R.
One of my friends plays WoW with him occasionally now.
