    ZOMG.

    Yes, it is possible, though it isn't viable for real game (You ever try controlling two races at once? Of course not, but it's hard. Expensive). It's a blast if you're just messing around. Any two races cover the other's weakness and creates an ULTIMATE FIGHTING FORCE MWA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

    I prefer DMing my Reavers. That way, you can drop em right in their base, and have them unload their whole clip.

    ^ That would require MCing both SCVs and drones as well as constructing the entire terran and zerg tech tree. Which would take a while and lots of resources.

    Of cource there are things one havn't tried. This game was balanced, but not THAT balanced. I can't remember anything mind-blowing I didn't try though. And yeah, MCing workers from others to make a 600 pop force = fun. : )

    I've done, or at least seen, just about all of the above. generalrievous is the only one that named something I haven't done.

    Keep it up guys, I dare you to think of something I haven't seen or done!

    Re: are there things that you havent tried yet?

    ^ It can only be done with food for thought

    I normally go for dt rush vs terrans and reaver rush vs zerg. If its a fastest map (which I hate but play in bnet sometimes) i go DT+Reaver.

    Lategame i normally use use archons, ht and dt alot. My endgame tactic is a secret =D

    Actually one time as Terran I managed to sneak an extra Marine, making my supply 201/200.

    Don't remember how I did it...

    Re: are there things that you havent tried yet?

    ok well i thought of this strategy because I used to play Fastest Map Ever with my roommates when we played each other and were starting to play against actual people, but I never tried it out

    Ok so in FME, the people in the corners have long, narrow strips of land leading up to their base. My idea would require an arbiter and siege tanks, so either MCing an SCV or working with a teammate. It would work especially well against massive amounts of Zerg.

    Set up two lines of siege tanks, one set of 12 and one set of 6. Deploy the six about 3/4 of the path up from the middle section of the map. Deploy the other twelve behind this six, near the entrance to your base. Make sure the six tanks in front block off the entire path. When the enemy army starts swarming toward you, use your or your teammate's Arbiter to Stasis Field the six tanks in front, making a roadblock (reminds me of Saving Private Ryan) then the twelve tanks in back will be out of range of hydralisks, zerglings, dragoons, zealots, DTs, and any other major ground attacking force that might try to run into the base, and can reduce the attacking army to carbon dust
