  StarCraft: Brood War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
StarCraft: Brood War is an expansion pack released in 1998 for StarCraft — an award winning real-time strategy computer game developed by Blizzard Entertainment.
The campaigns continue the story from where StarCraft left off: the Overmind has been destroyed with the sacrifice of Tassadar, the Protoss homeworld of Aiur has been left desolate and rampaged by the Zerg, and Kerrigan is left alone in her new Zerg form.
The first of the new campaigns is the Protoss one, (or rather, the Dark Templar's), and mostly takes place on their homeworld of Shakuras.

 StarCraft: Brood War Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
StarCraft: Brood War is an expansion set of scenarios that continue the war between the Protoss, Zerg and Terrans.
StarCraft, which was released for PC in March 1998, was the company's biggest launch of a game ever, with more than 1.5 million copies being sold worldwide.
StarCraft: Brood War adds seven new units to the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg races to attempt to compensate for each of their particular weaknesses and to add new strengths.

First and foremost among these is Kerrigan, the former Terran operative who in Starcraft was betrayed to the Zerg by Mengsk, and her desire to unite the shattered Zerg and exact revenge on her former allies.
Brood War will feature 26 new single player missions (divided between 8 Protoss, 8 Zerg, and 10 Terran), 100 new multiplayer maps, 3 new tilesets, and a completely new soundtrack (how many people like me still hum the songs from Starcraft?).
Brood War is a true sequel to Starcraft and fans will have no problem picking up where they left off.

In the eight new Protoss missions included in this expansion set, several new units become available: Dark Templars are ground units which are permanently cloaked and have the ability to meld together to become ultra-powerful Dark Archons.
This is an excellent addition to the StarCraft world.
By the end, it also becomes apparent that this may not be the last chapter in the StarCraft adventure.

 IMG Review: StarCraft: Brood War
Brood War has reset the standard for mission packs on both platforms, showing the gaming industry (for at least the third time) how things should be done.
Brood War adds 7 new units to the game, spread generally evenly between the races.
The single drawback to Brood War is the fact that the mindless movement AI present in the original has not been modified.

 Brood War Preview   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
StarCraft was released last year and quickly took hold as the premiere RTS around.
However, I have seen the Protoss dominate in many LAN games held here at VT. The main point is that Blizzard put tons of time and effort in making an incredibly balanced game where players with matched skill would win by their wits and not due to some trivial lopsidedness in races.
Brood War will add new units, new cinematics, and a new storyline to experience.

 GameOver - StarCraft: Brood War (c) Blizzard Entertainment
Starcraft eventually came out on top because it was outstanding for both single and multiplayer gaming.
There are places even Starcraft veterans haven’t explored, and techniques not even conceived which gives even someone, who has never played the original, a chance against the hordes of experienced players on battle.net.
Brood War does just that, expands on the original with many new advances in almost every possible aspect.

(brood war would favor me much more if it had a better UI, though - currently it's nearly impossible to spread a whole lot of corsair loving and then swoop in with scouts because placing more than 6 or so patches of haze takes so long that your first set is starting to fade.
In Starcraft, I did get to the 7th Protoss mission, but couldn't beat it for the life of me. So I never did play a Brood War mission, since I didn't want to compromise the story.

After seeing the follow-up to Starcraft, the Brood War expansion set, the answer is a resounding yes.
Starcraft: Brood War will definitely arrive sometime before the end of the year.
Brood War, however, since it's being developed by Blizzard itself, will include: three new campaigns that directly follow the plot of Starcraft, more intricate and plot-based scenarios, three new tile sets, new music, new cinematics, new heroes, six new units and upgrades to two existing units, and new special abilities.

This wouldn't have even affected the movies that lay at the beginning and end of each campaign (except the humans, whose initial campaign movie is the intro).

 MacReactor Review: Starcraft & Starcraft: Brood War
Starcraft has a detailed background story, building on and in many ways excelling far beyond the original scope of the background of the Warcraft series.
Brood War also tried to buff up the Ultralisk, a unit for which I rarely find much use because of its slow speed and the need for it to head-butt things to cause daamage; the new armour and speed upgrades for the ultralisk make it a more viable unit.
Starcraft did not invent the real-time strategy genre, but outside of Total Annihilation, few of the second-generation RTS games have combined the ease of use and powerful play that Starcraft delivers.

Brood War, an expansion set for Blizzard's hit real-time strategy game Starcraft, has finally arrived, and Mac gamers are sure to go berserk over its new army units and terrain types.
Brood War adds two new unit types (more would have been appreciated) to the three different species—Terrans, Zerg, and Protoss—each with its own unique technologies, attributes, and abilities.
Although the number of new units is limited, there are more than enough new campaigns, multiplayer levels, and battlefields to make Brood War truly a must-have for all hard-core Starcraft gamers.
