Oh man, this hits all the nostalgia buttons. All of them. Starcraft was basically the only decent game we owned back in the day.

:stonk: Good Lord, I can't believe you even considered that. Take however long you need to get things sorted out! We can wait, I'm sure.

I really enjoy the multiplayer-specific strategy notes. I found Starcraft overwhelming even in single-player mode so I never played much multiplayer; it's neat to learn details about how expert players do things.

Also 100 Killtrane Bucks to whoever comes up with the best explanation for why a swarm of insects prevents accurately targeting the units underneath while still allowing the units underneath - friend or foe - to accurately target anything outside.

Well obviously if you're in the cloud you can just swat the bugs out of the way for a second so you can get a clear shot.

They start it by having the three common plurals in the same briefing.

Anyway, the correct plural is nexodes.

:goonsay: Nexus is 4th declension in Latin, so its "proper" plural would be... still nexus, but with a long U, so "neck-soos".

But we're not speaking Latin, we're speaking English. So really we should just say nexuses. It doesn't sound great, but it's better than "neck-soos", and more correct than nexodes or nexi.

Are they also highly prone to xenophobia, binge drinking and football violence?

Yes, no, and maybe?
