Starcraft: The Story

[carmen510]

Starcraft is one of the best games out there! My Battle.Net user is in U.S East and is my username. lol. Anyway, I've decided to dedicate a tribute to this game by making a story of what happened in the game, and after the Brood Wars.

Prolouge​

The launch pad was ready. T-minus 30 seconds to lift off.
T-minus 15 seconds
T-minus 10 seconds
9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0. Blast off!
This shuttle carried the magistrate, going to the Mar Sara colony. Little did he know, history was goingto take place.
"This is Launch Pad to Shuttle WSK II. How you feeling up there?"
"Besides the dam feeling more Protoss *****es will blow up this tin-can contraption, I'm fine. Thanks for askin'."
"No prob. You are now reaching speeds of 3,000 miles a second. In 3 day, you'll be on the Mar Sara colony. We'll patch you through to another magistrate near the Chau Sara colony once you're there. You might learn new things."
"Fine. Over and out."
Two days later.

"So how's everythin' you old pilot? You still nervous after that incident with that blowin' up of our ship?"
"Hell yeah. That was one explosion, and the pilot blown to shreds"
"Ha ha, don't worry. Nothin' can hit us."
Boosh!
"Alert. Code 3 breach to Secondary thruster."
"Damit. Can you send a radio message somewhere?"
"Negative. Radio shortcircuted."
Booooom!
"Oh my god, that's whack"
They saw a huge Wraith suddenly blow up from a blue ray of death. Protoss warships were after them.
"Get to Max speed. Immediatly!!!!"
"Roger that"
"Should we open fire?"
"Blow those bad boys outta the sky"
Bam! Bam! Boosh!
"3 of their ships shot down. Our 2nd dropship got blown."
"Retreat!"
"Sir! I'm getting a signal from Chau Sara."
"Send for back up!"
"You had better look at this Captain."
"Oh ****"
On the screen, several protoss warriors and 'dragoons' were fighting colonial militia. 100 marines pitted against 400 Protoss. The supply depots exploded, leaving trails of civilian death. The barracks was on fire, and the gas leak made it's thrusters break down. The command center was floating away, only to crash down by ship's fire.
"Send help!"
Ratatatatatattatatatatatatatattat!
"Ksssss....zzzz.... Bip! Protoss attacking our base! Bip! Ksssss............"
"****. Get out of here now. We can't help them. Hopefully, they'll get to their..."
A sudden explosion interuppted him. It hit a hole in a storage compartment.
"Get to Mar Sara now! We have to save that colony and the magistrate!" "Roger that"

[Dreadnought]

[carmen510]

Soon. Maybe tonight, but definatly on the weekend.
Edit: Lol. Didn't notice I passerd 300 posts!

 

[carmen510]

@Chukchi Husky: You need to get Starcraft installed. It's wicked!
@Dreadnought: Sry I can't post on the weekend. Stupid homework.

Starcraft doesn't work on my PC.

What OS are you using? If it is XP, does it install or does it fail trying to load it? If it installs and it is XP, I would down load MoSlo and try that or DosBox.

I can't remember if I ever ran it on XP or not and I no longer have the game.

 

[Chukchi Husky]

My PC is XP, but when I click to install the game, it freezes.

 

[vmxa]

I would try to copy the CD to a folder. Then see if it uses install.exe or .bat or if use setup.exe.

If it use other than setup, then I would try DoSBox to run the install tool.

You could also select the tool, even setup, right click and find properties. Makeup in the program tab you do not have close on exit. You could also set the compatible mode to win95 or 98.

 

[carmen510]

@ vmxa: Well that just sucks.
Luckily, next update later this night or perhaps tommorow, when I have a half day.

 

[vmxa]

Maybe you could slap in a pix or two for reader enjoyment. Hum wait, that may make me want to go find a copy.

[Little Corporal]

I tipo my hat to you for responding to my thread.

The year is 2499. (Ok, this is the real year) Years ago, on November 22, 2229, the United Powers League formed. This order was to unite Earth's population and humanity after the fall of the United Nations.

Inaugural Celebration

"We shall prevail against all opposition and unite humanity under one banner! We shall show humanity is supurior to all people! I say 'Stand with us'!"
The crowd cheered. Not that they had a choice. After all; 3,000 MPs were stationed around New York City, one of the last '10' oldest cities left. The Statue of Liberty was the only landmark still in place. The UPL had better uses for it though. They carefully took it and placed it atop the new Capitol buiding. You see, great flooding caused by global warming melted all but 20 sq. miles of the polar ice caps. Washington D.C was overcome by floods. However, they moved all the historic landmarks from the city, shipping it across to other cities. Humans have buit artificial landtops on top of the water, but it takes 15 years for 10 sq. miles to be put down. Anyway, the UPL had begun the 'cleansing' All religions were banned shortly after the UPL came to be. Also, fascist tactics were used to keep people in line, such as executions, unfair imprisonment, and being sent onto space probes. In addition, English was the only language spoken, the UPL banned the rest. However, the UPL ended all racial seperation. 93% of Earth was under their banner. The other 7% were South American countries out of the UPL's sphere of influence. They constantly fought back when the UPL was trying to force them in their 'world order' One incident was the Mexican revolt. They had strret fighting in Mexico city. It took 3 years for the fighting to end. The Mexicans won, though 1,900,000 men died in total around Mexico. (UPL and Mexicans) The UPL launched 'Project Purification' killing many cyborgs, genetically enhanced people, hackers, tech pirates, and criminals. A total 400,000 died, one of the worst genocides in centuries. The UPL controlled the media and told them not to report on it. The UPL also did experiments on the general population, such as emotion inhibitors and drug enhancers. In 2269, a young scientist named Doran Routhe sent 40,000 political prisoners away on the spaceships Reagan, Argo, Sarengo, and Nagglfar. These people would set up mining colonies. The guidance computer failed on the Nagglfar, the main scanner ship. An interesting thing was that 1% of the passangers on all the ships had a mutation for psionic potential within a few generations. They travelled for 30 years, reaching the Korprulu Sector. The warp engines failed. Here's a small audio recording about their arrival on the planets in the Korprulu sector.

Atmosphere of Umoja, 12:26 hours. Reagan.

"So Captain, how we gonna land?"
"That small crater there"
"Boot main thrusters for landing"
"Copy that"
"Turn off main engines"
"Roger"
"Uhhh... Capitan, you might wanna see this"
"Ok comin'"
"Holy ****"
The Sarengo's main thruster and wing were on fire. The ship was going down, nose first.
"Must've had the parts burn in that ship. I told them to fix the dam gas leaks."
"I can't hear anything on radio. Crap."
The Sarengo had crashed, burning and leaving a big hole on the surface.
"What happened there? I see a big scar on that planet"
It was the Argo calling.
"Ya, well, the Sarengo just crashed"
"Hot dam..."
Transmition ending.

Is anyone gonna respond? It's only been like a night.

COOL Story is awsome! Im actually helping with a Starcraft Mod/Warcraft Mod for Civ IV, and after were done i guess, ill try to persuade Gerikes(MOST awsome programmer) to try to create a Single player game,and you might be able to help us add scenarios and other cool stories. Check out sig for the mod. We call it Civ-Craft. Although we still are far from completeion we finally got alot of neat features in there from the original games, and Gerikes is figuring out the combat system which looks awsome soo far, especially the selection system. Check it out and give us some input on our direction soo far. Its always good to have a Starcraft Veteran helping in any way. Anyway Keep up the stories, I really enjoy the Starcraft and warcraft universe, they are just soo unique and they just have something about them. It seems all the people from the Big Apple Like starcraft!

 

[carmen510]

Well, thanks for the comments. Ive been playing Battle.Net only recently. I don't have Civ4, but I might be able to help.

 

[carmen510]

Update comin soon to Forums. Maybe the weekend?

 

[carmen510]

The update you've all been waiting for is here!

After the Sarengo crashed, the Reagan landed safely to check the wreckage. 8,000 prisoners dead, with 30 still living. The crew had been killed before the Sarengo crashed, probably by the jail break. Now, the ships were alone, on different planets. They were seperated and now couldn't find their way together. The Reagan had settled on Umoja, the Argo on Moria, and the Nagglfar on the famous planet, Tarsonis. When they landed, they had no idea where they were, and they couldn't contact Earth. They didn't know the Protoss had saw their landings, but they didn't interfere. Since tarsonis had ATLAS, they had a technological head start. However, it took 60 years before they managed to create spaceships and explore the rest of the system, finding their neighbors. When this happened, Tarsonis attempted to convince the colonies to join together in a governmental alliance. They refused. Meanwhile, Tarsonis was founding colonies. The Confederates had a government formed by a number of corrupt senators. As the Guild Wars began, Tarsonis had 7 colonies. Eventually, Tarsonis and it's colonies became the Terran Confederacy. The Kel-Morian Combine formed as a 'pirate militia' to protect Moria's mining guilds.
The Guild wars happened as a conflict with the Terran Confederacy against the Kel-Morian Combine and Moria. After 4 years, the Confederates won. Moria remained a free planet, but the Confederates annexed all the guilds. The result of this war was the formation of the Umojian Protectorate, a military organization to keep the Confederates out of Umojan affairs. It was lead by Minister Jorgensen. He came into power as he piloted a vulture and 'accidently' ran over the former minister who told him he was fired. As there were no replacements, he came into power. Also, Moria gave so much minerals and vespene gas to the Confederates that they were immune to Confederate laws. The Confederates faced several rebel groups revolting against their senators, but were rarely a match for the Confed armies. Korhal was one of the Confed's colonies, but they resented the corrupt senators. The residents of Korhal egan open revolt. The Confeds imposed martial law. However, this only lead the revolt being stronger. Angus Mengsk, a Korhalian senator, led the revolt. The Confeds eventually removed their troops, but not aftere 3 assasin ghosts killed Angus, his wife, and one of his sons. This weakened the revolt. However, Arcturus Mengsk, Angus's last son, returned to Korhal after serving as a confed colonel. Outraged by the death of his family, he led the revolt. He rallied his dad's supporters and they striked against Confed bases. Eventually, he went to Umoja for a visit. During that time, the Confeds fired 1,000 nukes on Korhal, wiping out pretty much all life there. Maybe 53 million were killed when the nukes exploded. However, Mengsk took the remaining rebels and formed the Sons of Korhal. This was the beginning of the end. (for the Confeds)
