Overview of Race |
||
| The terrans are my favorite race. They are well balanced and mobile. When there are no more resources there pack up and move to a new area. Destroy your bunkers and missile turrets and it's like you've never been there. For defense build bunkers filled with marines and place Valykires and siege tanks behind them. Valykires are the ultimate in air to air attack and with siege tanks to attack ground units you can have it made. Use Irradidate on zerg units clustered close together. USE THE EMP SHOCKWAVE!!! It can remove the edge protoss forces have on you. Have medics heal your infantry in a 2-10 ratio. | ||
|
Tactics against the Protoss |
||
| Build firebats to defend against the early zealot rush. Use Upgraded goliaths to kill scouts and carriers. Use lockdown on reavers and shuttles and then counterattack with a nuke right on top of their photon cannons. Use Yamato cannons to take out arbiters. Keep missile turrets all around your base to prevent shuttle drops. | ||
 |
Siege tanks can pound through photon cannons with their superior range. Use emp cannons liberally to take away the protoss's main advantage, shields. Build Valykires to defend against air attacks. | |
|
Tactics against the Zerg |
||
| Build lots of firebats as they can battle almost any ground unit effectively. Use battlecruisers defensively. Use parasited units to fight the enemy. For example, send a small force to attack an outpost while your main force attacks the main hive. Take out guardians. Use valykires to do this. Kill groups of overlords with Valykires, which can shred 5-10 in less than a minute. | ||
 |
Use restoration on plagued battlecruisers. Protect any offense battlecruisers with valykires to shoot down any scrounges that come. Have command centers heavily defended. If the Zerg infest one, take it out quickly or face the consequences of infested terrans blowing up all around you. | |
|
Tactics against other Terrans |
||
| Beware of Valykires so cross protect battlecruisers with other Valykires. Watch out for any factories that will try to fly behind you and start cranking out siege tanks. This tactic works well but I don't like it because of all the risks involved. If it gets shot down, for example, you lose the minerals needed to build it and the time you need to build it. Try to sneak a few shuttles full of siege tanks back there instead. It's the same tactic but with less risks. Watch out for spider mines as they can ruin an invasion force quite quickly. Scan over sites for a potential new base with detectors so your command center doesn't get blown up while it's being built. | ||
