Terran Commander

it's more likely (IMO) that just the first one survived. But I think that all three sides will have new commanders and the old ones will be forgotten.

 

That's...depressing.
"Thanks for saving us from utter annihilation. But we are better off with out you. Consider yourself retired."

"what?"

*BAM*

"Ok, who wants to be the new leader?"

 

In the extended universe panel at BlizzCon, someone brought up this question. They stated that, while they had considered including the previous "commander" in the new game, they couldn't get it to work with the new system. Instead, the player will be playing as Raynor, or as the other heroes.

 

I didn't think we would be playing as a commander as soon as I saw how the campaign was structured. Still, an official explanation would be nice...

It's alright though; there are worse holes in the story than that (like any story).

 

I'll miss being called commander
