I read that they made the greatest enhancement in all the land.

You know how in Starcraft, if you tell your scv, probe, or whatever to build something and when it gets there if something happens to be in the way for a split second it won\'t build it and it tells you something is in the way.

Well in Warcraft III you can build stuff right on top of people and they will just politely walk out of the way.

Also if you have Peons not doing anything it puts an icon in the lower left corner of the screen.  That way you don\'t have a bunch of dudes just standing around on accident.  You click on the icon and it takes you to the peons.

OMG, GENIOUSES!

I have to get this game if it is anything like Starcraft. I\'ve been playing SC regularly for almost 3 years now.

I just got done playing 3 of the worst games of starcraft ever.  I suck.  Had the game since it came out and I still suck.

whats worse is when they get stuck, I hope they fixed that little bug.

They don\'t rotate around the item like in Starcraft.  So they stay on the side they are on when you put them in motion.  Very cool.  So if you are building a wall you don\'t have to worry about the guy ending up on the wrong side.

That little "idle-villager" button was originally thought up in Age of Empires 2(or maybe 1), but it\'s a good idea.

You have to practice to be able to beat anyone on b.net.

Look me up on Brood War.

Another cool thing is that when the buildings are being built it\'s all in 3d and you can zoom down into it.  You can also rotate the screen 90 degrees by hitting the insert and delete keys.  

I can\'t wait until starcraft gets reworked.  They don\'t have anything on their site about a version 2.

Did you see that warcraft III has already turned gold....  They have sold 4.5 million copies just to stores expecting a rush.  Pretty sweet.  I wish 7.3 would freaking get here.  I need a new online game.

And I can\'t be your God because I still think Wrestling is gay as hell.  Sorry.  We don\'t have to agree on everything.:D

Brood War makes the game so much better.  I can\'t even remember life before medics.  It\'s only $10.
