New year - new life.
Maybe I will stop posting or I will stop working for my StarCraft projects, but I will never give up loving StarCraft.
The 1.03 release of AFRICA SAFARI HSL is now available here (sound/nosound). In a few months I will start working for the 1.04, where players will be allowed to kill each other, thus giving more fun and more competition. Note that the current release presents some bugs that will be fixed in the future...
Take a look at azure_agony in two new pictures (1/2).

Added a small Personal Maps Archive. I am now working at a UMS map that will be relased in the next weeks
Relased the last version of the StarCraft Strategy Tome in MHTML version. Now you may take a look at the guide directly from your browser.

Sorry, I spent my time playing WarCraft III. Really the perfect real-time strategy game!
No updates by now... Added small picture showing my real aspect(...)

17/08/2002

The Combat session of this guide is good for WarCraft III too.

10/08/2002

Added my personal player profile. Removed link to the official patches archive.
Perhaps I will upload it when someone asks for it. Added link to the SC general discussion forum.

09/08/2002

Once again, an unexpexted update. The version BETA0022 has been uploaded, with some important add-ons: the Tome is now 28 pages long, more than 10000 words. I worked day & night. Even last wednesday I wrote for 4 hours and at night I wasn't able to sleep! Still thinking about the last strategy problem!
Here is an example of what you will find downloading this guide:

Adept: Why? Is not baiting the counter strategy for fire concentrating?

Master: If you retreat your unit the enemy has achieved his purpose: reducing your firepower by one unit. Of course, when you bring back your unit to attack you will regain your firepower, but the enemy will certainly target that unit again and kill it. In the period you were moving your bait back and forward, the bait was not attacking – as if it was dead – and the enemy did lose some time in order to change target, but regained it damaging the next unit. Baiting could be useful when the enemy does not micromanage the attack, or in a ranged vs. melee encounter.

Read and enjoy, full-time StarCraft players!

I updated the SST to the last version (0018). There are some interesting news. Combat strategies, quite good, some pictures.
I added a link to my best refined Unit Statistics Excel Sheet, really important in order to find unusual values like warworth, effective firepower, rx/hx, etc. etc. DOWNLOAD IT NOW
I know this layout sux, but I have no time to work on it. I prefer writeing the strategy tome. Maps List updated.

01/08/2002

I updated the site as promised but it is only a formality: in this month I have been enjoying my holidays and did not proceed with my work. I just studied some attack strategies that I will post in the next days. Indeed I am taking a look at Warcraft III, in order to refine the SST. I would like to thank you 10 people who visited this site in the last period; I hope you will enjoy my work. Play Ladder and Play Fair.
