    hi guys, since I am ATM away from my game so gotta ask this cos I have been thinking about it all morning:

    NydarWorm - when I have some units still in the worm, if the exit in opponent's base and the main both being killed, do I loose those units in the worm, or the are simply trapped? if I somehow make another worm somewhere else, can I get those units back?

    I would think that you would lose them if you lost both ends. If you lose one (say the main) and you remake a new one, you should still be able to retrieve the units and use the worm. The connection should be reconnected with the newer and older worm.

    Without a worm there can be no sperm!

    :p

    Seriously though, if you lose all your worms then yes, you lose all the units still inside. On the other hand if just one end gets destroyed while units are trying to unload from it then you just need to tell the "trapped" units to unload somewhere else.

    Third point under general strategy.

    Now I'm wondering if there's a way to stop the stream of units coming out, as I have yet to find it. Otherwise an exposed nydus can easily be dealt with by keeping your units out of range and picking the unloading units off one at a time, which is pretty lame.
