what? No "Spoiler Warning?"

But in that case, couldn't they make more then one overmind?

i baleev that defeats the purpose of it being an "Overmind" the Mind to watch over...over their MINDS...ya dig?

What if there was like a Vice-Overmind? or a co-Overmind?

Cerebrates are Overmind's vices. They can operate without the Overmind's presence, and given enough time and energy it can evolve into an overmind. ( Or fusing with other cerebrates would work. ) Once a overmind's formation takes place, it would probably suppress others to become an overmind in order to have no conflicting orders on one zerg.

( As you saw on Brood War, Kerrigan had controlled one Brood against the overmind controlled Brood of the UED. )

Maybe I should trying playing the campaign again I would already know this then.

dont forget the secret zeratul Mission on the moon with duran :X

Current Channel:

Kerrigan > Cerebrate > Queen > Overlord > Minions

What about the queens? The instructions never really explained it that great.
It seems that queens are tertiary, based on the tech tree.

Ooh, ok. that explains it. Although the overmind should be in there and yeah, whats up with Queens? How do they control anything? And do they have power over overlords?

that channel is based off of sc2. where the overmind is dead. ( ithink) so hes not on their and the queen has a more important role in sc2.

Sucks to be you.

Kerrigan = Much more mobile and a lot smarter than the Overmind, plus, she can defend herself quite nicely

Cerebrates = Field Commanders, they are in-charge when Mommy is at the store

Queens = Hive Warden, she keeps the bitches in line yo

Overlords = Sarah told Jenny who told Ashley who found Elizabeth and told her that Emily had told Courtney who secretly told Amanda who was telling Kelsey when I overheard that you are supposed to go attack the Terran base up there

Minions = They kill stuff. If they aren't under control, they are coo coo for coco puffs.

ok, thats a lil clearer. thanks

No ones going to answer my matrix question? aww

The Matrix owned everyone the end.

Now, for more detaled crap.

Kerrigan >
High Cerebrate > Player's Brood
Lower Cerebrate > Brood(s)
Queen > Hive Cluster
Overlord
Minions

So Kerrigan and High Cerebrate are better then us? Then how come I can control her?

I would be lame if kerrigan says that you should make that building and ambush the that enemy

Altough sometimes she kinda does , the bitch !!!!

2 month old topic, good job reviving it pointlessly though.

Meh all the good topics are death

Hopefully nobody kills me for joining in on an old topic...

A thought I came up with is that Zerg units absorbed Minerals and Gas for certain nutrients they contain that promote mutation. Larvae feed on creep I guess... I'm assuming that other Zerg units would feed on creep too, or their life spans would just be really short.

As for the whole control hierarchy thing

Overmind> Cerebrate> Overlord/Hatchery
Or
Kerrigan> Cerebrate> Overlord/Hatchery

I didn't bother to include Queens, because they require control which is provided by overlords and hatcheries, and don't provide any. This is probably different in SC2, but SC2 changes a lot so I think it's better left old school until things are set in stone.

I don't get how a larvae can be come a ultralisk...Maybe its one of those crappy dollar store sponge animals that expand when you put them in water. Maybe creep is water-based?
