Starcraft

If you've been reading my Twitter, you know that I've been trying to play StarCraft for the first time in my life.

Trying being the opportune word.

I've got the basic strategy down, I've been able to get a bunch of guys, I've even gotten 30 Goliaths at one time, but for some reason, the computer always seems to have a combat advantage equivalent to sending a squad of gunmen into a sniper ambush (which is another one of my pet peeves). The enemy also almost always seems to outnumber me at least 2 to 1, and to date I haven't even managed to win one encounter (an encounter meaning just a 30-second battle between my guys and the computer's guys).

Maybe I should just wait for Starcraft II. They say it's supposed to be easier on the newbies.
