    Yea, I think Zeratul is just injured. Plus, if you saw the Cinematics, Kerrigan kicked him in the arm. So he's holding his arm in the demo. I have my bets that good 'ol Zeratul ain't gonna die at least not in that cinematic.

    Raynor'll take care of 'em. Then they're gonna do some kickass combined race missions, hopefully.

    *EDIT* The fact that I said it was Kerrigan who kicked him is still just speculation. It's what I and a few others on the forum have guessed but it's not for sure.

    Raynor drinks NUKE cola for that, it's pretty much the Red Bull of the future, no side effects except you might get random diahrea a week from drinking it.

    No way zeratul could die in the arms of raynor, that´s lame, if he has to die, then he will die after killing or fighting some super hybrid or kerringan with a double ko or maybe sacrificing his life to halve the fury of the mighty xel naga.
    Zeratul is just so big that he cant die, too many protoss heroes hace died that way, its zergs turn to die!

    Totally agree. I'm also pissed that you're playing Jim and not the faceless "commander" that you were in SC. I liked the feeling that I was with them in the briefing room, not that I was one of them.

    well for all we know, that level of the Terran campaign could be after the Zerg and Protoss campaigns, so it might now be so early if he does indeed die :(

    that doesn't mean I think he is or I don't hope that he won't :-\

    I'm not liking how Jim's character turned out. In Starcraft 1 it looked like he could be a descendant of Jack Bauer, but now he looks kinda pathetic with the drinking and bitterness, definitely doesn't look like a faction leader. His intention was probably to get wasted and cry like a little girl before Zeratul showed up. I hope he man's up after that encounter.

    Also I dont like the idea of playing the freedom fighter faction, I was hoping to play as the Dominion for the human campaign but it seems I won't have my chance :-\

    Campaign interface looks great though :p

    Jack Bauer is lame, with that in mind the new Raynor seems 10x better.

    Only good thing that came out of 24 was Elisha Cuthbert.

    I liked how in SC1 you played the role of some nameless commander which was you, now it looks like you play as the main person or whatever from that faction. I think Raynor will only be a stepping stone for the new major terran faction, which will be lead by Alexei Stukov, he will slowly take charge as they come closer and closer to surpassing the Dominion in power, plus Stukov has most of the power already among the other Terran factions, he has the UED remnants with him, and he has alot of Confederate people siding with him as well, those two combined with raynor's raiders could very well be enough to take out the Dominion or atleast enough to become the major Terran faction, and then Raynor would play a role to Stukov as Duke did for Mengsk.

    Indeed, she is also the very attractive daughter of Jack Bauer.

    ok lets summarize:
    Aliens invade your homeworld.
    You try to fight them and fail.
    Your homeworld gets incinerated.
    Girl you love is betrayed by your douchebag boss.
    Girl you love dies.
    Girl you love haunts your mind. You look for her and find out she is alive, but infested by the aliens that infested your homeworld and precipitated its destruction.
    You fight against the girl you used to love and find new friends in a noble race of psychic aliens.
    You earn the trust of some of them, which is something big, considering you are a human.
    Your ex-boss uses you to become Emperor.
    Your best friend with whom you've been fighting is killed indirectly by the girl you used to love and is now an ruthless, evil, infested c***.
    You vow to kill the girl you used to love, but it has been 4? years and you have not achieved it, but rather wandered through space doing odd jobs as a low-class mercenary.

    How would you feel? :-\

    I cant wait to see the protoss/zerg campaing briefing rooms. I wonder how that is going to work by the way? We cant have Kerrigan having to purchase upgrades!!! (Maybe some sort of evolution process for the zerg and an honor system for the protoss?) but neither would explain why they do not already have access to full tech-trees. I guess every campaign is going to have to be from the perspective of an "underdog"? I guess they always were anyways.

    -who knows.

    Oh yes.. the campaign briefing rooms looks amazing and i was thinking that Zeratul might die in that scene... he will probably get killed by Typhus Findlay by accident

    I doubt Tychus Findlay will do that. Although, I think Tychus Findlay will lay waste to Zerg somehow. Jim is about to confront Kerri again though I can see it happening... I wanna see Zeratul pwn some Hybrid Duran A**! Anyways.. I love the Campaign room the most appealing aspect of SC is the storyline for me. As it is so in depth, yet, at the same time easily understandable and predictable, yet, yet,.... *Head Explodes* :p

    Blizzard has said that each race will have different campaign mechanics, so I doubt we'll see the bridge of a carrier and pick missions and/or the butthole of an overlord and pick missions...

    they'll prolly each have their own completely different way of campaigning
