Description Edit | History

Starcraft: Brood War brings the events that occurred in the eponymous videogame expansion to the boardgame.

With the shattered Zerg hive torn apart by fierce infighting, the Protoss seek to reunite with their Dark Templar brethren and begin rebuilding their devastated homeworld, Aiur. Terran Emperor Mengsk I, having achieved his goal of total domination over the human colonies, must now face two formidable threats. On one side is the rising power of the woman he betrayed – Kerrigan, now the infamous Zerg Queen of Blades – and on the other, a malevolent conspiracy deep within his own ranks. This expansion to the award-winning StarCraft: The Board Game provides a wide range of new units, planets, orders, technologies, and more.

Included within are brand new rules for:

Leadership Cards: Faction customizations providing devastating powers and advanced strategies for each of the six factions.
Heroes: Powerful units whose unique abilities can turn the tide of battle.
Scenario Play: Story-based missions that offer a brand new way to play the game. Fight to save the Dark Templar homeworld from Zerg infestation or attempt to destroy the Zerg Overmind to free the galaxy from its tyranny!

9 DWN's Starcraft BroodWar TuckBox Collection
PDF files containing 10 Tuck boxes. All designed by hand, and at 300 DPI. Boxes include (Planet Resource, Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3, and all 6 factions). With the optional sub-divider option for keeping your faction combat, tech and leadership cards separate in your faction boxes. This set will fit all the cards from the base game (Starcraft) and this expansion.Enjoy. ~DarkWolfNine P.S. I think I forgot to mention in the Instructions. But the sub-dividers header flap (where the names are) just need to be folded down so they fit in the boxes. NOTE: Don't forget when printing PDF's to change the "Print Scaling" to NONE so they will print at the correct dimensions.

26 BW Reference with all combat related unit informations (stats and abilities)
This is the second version of the Brood War Reference Sheet. Corrected some minor and one major mistake (uups Infested Terran had Cloaking instead of Sacrifice on my first version). Furthermore I added one new feature. But have a look by yourself, if you liked the first one this one is a must have.
