Starcraft - Terran


Welcome to the "Starcraft - Terran" page. I'll be discussing about the Terran race here.



Terran

Also known as the humans, their buildings and units have good prices for for good units. Don't let that fool you, they can deal great amounts of damage also. This race is known for "turtleling."

Land Forces

SCV
- The SCV( Space Construction Vehicle) is what the player gathers resources with, builds structures, and repairs damaged structures and some units. Probably the most important unit, and can do ground to ground attack only.

Marine
- The basic terran unit. This guy is armed with a heavy machine gun but with only 40 health, won't do much late in the game, but armed with a medic, you can go a long ways with this unit. Ground to ground, and ground to air assault.

Firebat
- As the name suggest, this guy loves fire. Very annoying to zealots and zerglings. Ground to ground assault, armed with a medic, this guy can burn a whole town... well, not really..

Medic
- Medics can heal several units of your own and of your allies. Equipped with several spells such as heal and blind.

Ghost
- This mysterious person can prove very useful in a tense situation. This unit can cloak, thus hiding itself from enemy unit. The ghosts have many tricks up their sleeve, from the lockdown option to the dreaded nukes. Can attack both air and ground units.

Vulture
- This unit is great for scouting, and has a decent attack. It can travel extremely fast when upgraded, and it's main use is it's spider mines. Ground to ground assault only.

Goliath
- Let's just say, a beefed up marine. When it's air missiles are upgraded, it can attack long ranged air units such as the guardian. Has decent ground attacked. Normally paired up with a tank for a heavy metal attack.

Tank
- Tanks are almost always used, no matter what. Awesome for defense, assault, attack, whatever.. Super long range, probably the longest, when in seige mode. Paired with the goliath's long ranged air missiles, then you are almost unstoppable. Ground attack only.


Air Forces

Wraith
- The first aircraft that you are able to build. These units don't deal much damage by themselves, but watch out for a group flying cloaked into your base.

Battlecruisers
- One of the most powerful unit in the game. It has a special ability called the Yamato Gun, which shoots a huge amount of damage to a specific target from long ranged. When attacked in huge fleets, almost unstoppable.

Science Vessal
- These ships are most useful when engaging the enemy. With their detection ability and sneaky bio-hazardous tricks, these are not ships you would like to take lightly.

Valkyrie
- Similar to the corsair, but deals more damage. Air to air combat only.
