Rawr I will need a wine trade route soon. Of course I can always just plunder a nearby island, of course that will start a war. >.> this game is really advanced compared to most browser games I played

To be honest guys the game isnt that bad, although it is "kid friendly" it can also be really challenging.

ADDITION: This is actually a very nicely done game, perhaps if I can persuade the owners of the game to drop the farming rule I will devote more of my time to the game

Vi3t-X RANK: approx 7000

For me: Theta

Rank: 3,146
Points: 411

Capital: Fort Pain (Sulphur)
Colony A: Castle Ashther (Wine)

I am finnaly finding Sulphur to come in handy, Sulphur+Wine=OWNAGE. The wine can support the growth of your cities, which will in turn increase your income/resource production rates. The Sulphur can be used to crank out units at speeds unmatched. My only problem is finding the crystal for my academy.

less strain on the eyes :P, and:
A) You don't need their fucking password
B) People who need resources can just ask when they need it.

Or, did this serve another purpose than it looked?

And the code for this list would be:

Anyways, the password was a joke.
The resources are a start-up package ready to be sent at anytime.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
[04:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[06:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[03:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
