- The overdue General StarCraft forum for general discussion of StarCraft has been created. If anyone wants to make icons for any or all skins, that would be grand.
Moderators, when moving topics to this forum, it will appear at the bottom of the selection because the list generation does not feature... ordering.

- The 50/50 Raffle has been redone to incorporate a basic knowledge of design and layout.

On Magic Boxes, when a round ends, it should be seen in history and have all boxes open labeled as "Previous Round".

Obvious icon :-/.

It's also already an icon. Maybe I can have the SC1 Wraith for StarCraft General and the new SC2 Wraith for the SC2 forum. Plus that doesn't really fit in the other icon sets.

You mean the 1.14 patch that updated the StarCraft icon?

And StarCraft II doesn't have a Wraith except in the map editor or seen as a hidden unit in the campaign.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 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

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.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 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:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
