Invasion of Earth!!

[overmind]

what if earth was invaded in the campaign? ;D

PROTOSS;
collosi stride among the buildings sweeping fleeing civilians with their thermal lances
a collosus is taken out by a turret and collapses on some buildings.
collosus climbs up the side of a building and ambushes marines
soul hunters have a feild day on unarmed victims
tempest's unleash thousands of buzzers into the fleeing masses
probes quickly construct pylons and warpgates unleashing the full force of the toss

ZERG;
hundreds of fleeing civilians are rushed by lings
empty vultures line the streets
Ultras smash through buildings leveling anytrhing in their way
Hydras slowly prowl in to buildings ready to impale any resistance
infested buildings are everywhere
Overminds cloud the skies
the majority of people left are now infested
a heavy choice is taken...as people are forced into a infestation center further augmenting the invading forces a nuke soars through the air killing hundreds -infested or not


what do you think? this would kick @ss aye?

[ImaGiNe.]

Protoss:
War of the Worlds

Zerg:
Attack of the Martians

Agreed! However I do not see the need for them to invade Earth as all of its resources have been sucked dry by the time they come. Although this would be a really neat defensive campaign by the UED (Also... GOOO HALO 3)

[overmind]

yes the toss do sound a bit like WOTWs actually :)
i have never seen that martian one through

the zerg don't only need resources imagine the masssive boost in their forces they would get if they could infest earth
the toss could do it as a pre-imptive defensive assualt

[Lemonparty]

Protoss send a Probe to scout Earth
Earth surrenders

[overmind]

lol imagine the panic if the terrans detected an observer in earths orbit
Ahhh! were all going to die!!!!!!

[didd293]

If they invaded Earth they wouldn't be able to do sh*t cuz the Koreans would micro all the terrans (us, humans) to death

[Lemonparty]

Korea is basically Starcraft

[Itsmyship]

And who in the end will save us?? Only one man has saved us from both aliens and robots...therfore it he is he who is the "Chosen One"......WILL SMITH!!!!

[capthavic]

The Koreans would worship them as gods!

[[LightMare]]

i would kill those alien bastards

[overmind]

the South Koreans would worship them like gods
the North Koreans would worship Kim-John-Il like a god and kill them all.

@ itsmyship; HELLO Swarz******!

[kingsky123]

our germs will kill them :P

[paragon]

the protoss would attack earth why?

[Fenix]

the protoss would attack earth why?



the toss could do it as a pre-imptive defensive assualt


That's why.

[paragon]

against who? the protoss are far more concerned with the zerg. so many people seem to just dismiss the fact that the protoss, UED, and dominion joined forces to fight the zerg at the end of brood wars. granted none of those UED people survived, I doubt the ones on Earth are that much in the dark.

[I)4rk]

LOL SOUTH KOREANS WOULD MICRO US TO DEATH? Don't forget macro us to death too. In that case, all the south koreans will win against protoss and zerg, unless the protoss and koreans have a supermind to micro and macro everything all at once.

[Fenix]

Ahem. Read the thread. People were talking about how infesting everyone on Earth as shock troops would prove to create a rather potent army. That's why they sterilized planets.

[paragon]

they used to sterilize planets. they haven't really done that since the beginning of the first starcraft campaign

[Fenix]

Yeah, but that's still why.

[ShoGun]

I think the enigmatic hybrids will invade and destroy earth after they awaken. Duran probably seeded some on earth, and its sister planets. Soon, the entire sector is obliterated by the unstoppable protoss/zerg hybrids. Survivors flee to the only other place they know where humans exist, the korpulu sector (or however it's spelled), and when they arrive they send warning to the coming of the hybrids to their human brethren.

[Dreadnought]

The simple fact is humans might be out of rescources but here current forces on earth would more that wipe out any zerg fleet. Until the zerg or protoss take over every other world and build an army 2x the size of earths, (this applies more for zerg of course) they couldn't win. Humans would launch so many nukes BYE BYE zerg/protoss. We humans are rigged for war. I mean the USA spends almost 1 trillion a year on their military!!!

[concreteasflesh]

EARTH WILL NEVER FALL! we human can destroy it internally all we want but **** no! no alien freaks are gonna set foot on our planet, NUKES, an ample supply of missles, AKs, M-16s, F-22s, Green Barrets, GSG-9, AL Quieda, Bradley Tanks, Patriot missles, NATO .249 auto machine guns, 2.8 billion Chinese and Indians combined, BIRD FLU, and aids would rape anything trying to invade this fine place!

[Exterranminator]

concreteasflesh: man is plague and there is no cure :]

[Fenix]

EARTH WILL NEVER FALL! we human can destroy it internally all we want but f**k no! no alien freaks are gonna set foot on our planet, NUKES, an ample supply of missles, AKs, M-16s, F-22s, Green Barrets, GSG-9, AL Quieda, Bradley Tanks, Patriot missles, NATO .249 auto machine guns, 2.8 billion Chinese and Indians combined, BIRD FLU, and aids would rape anything trying to invade this fine place!


Dude. All they would have to do is ignite the oxygen in the atmo, and we would all burn. It's a lot easier than you would think.

[Major Willy]

They couldn't kill me. I'd sit in a corner with some tea and a Super Shotgun from Quake II.

[Fenix]

With your mad fire breathing abilities. Oh, and orbital bombardment.

[Major Willy]

I could shoot the SS into the sky and still hit them, even though it's a shotgun.

The SS in Quake II was Chuck Norris in steel. Honestly.

[Fenix]

In the Red corner, we have Major Willy with a shotgun!!

In the Blue corner, we have the Protoss Navy complete with carriers and a Mothership!!


Place yer bets!!

[Major Willy]

SUPER shotgun.

Haven't you ever played Quake 2 man?

[Fenix]

My money's on a Time Bomb then a Planet Cracker.

[Major Willy]

Not even if I have Quad Damage?

Nuts.

[CodyFallsForth]

I bet on chuck norris. I mean really? He should be a hero in SC

[Fenix]

The Terran ultimate unit. Walker, Mar Sara Ranger.

[alucardx]

mmm how about this,,, Protoss and Zerg encounter each other near,,, ehhhh... let´s say Mars. They get together to erradicate Terran form the Universe. Just when they become "friends" fow a while, the UED informs to people around the world that they can´t stand them. Earth was living its final hours.When the invaders are reaching our beloved Earth... Some strange power block any attack, and kill most of the Invassion Forces... The mighty Xel´ Naga finally appear. They have their own "spy device" hidden on the moon,,, and when time was right, thay emerge. They used some of their ancient knowledge to take advantage of the races they created once. Samir Durán was the human that Xel´Naga choose to retrieve information and to create the ultimate weapon,,, the Protoss/Zerg hybrids.

hehe I was thinking how could we survive in case that something like that happens.

[didd293]

eh, toss will never ally w/ zerg, especially after the Fenix incident

[mc2]

Not only the Fenix incident. After Kerrigan assisted the Protoss in obtaining the Uraj and Khalis, Kerrigan killed Aldaris. Zeratul then detained her from Shakuras saying "this is a Protoss matter, you have no say in this". As well as Kerrigan kidnapping Raszagal and forcing Zeratul to kill her. The Toss will never trust Kerrigan again.

[DKutrovsky]

I really dont think Earth is this important anymore, so many planets, and its so easy to colonize any of them. Even if they invade and destroy earth its like meh. Its not like it will have any valuable resources in it anyways.

Although i really dont think the protoss have beef with the terran dominion. Other than "Hey you steaks, dont feed the zerg, PEW PEW " I dont see why they would attack them...

[paragon]

earth has bajillions of people while the terran korprulu sector planets only a have a few million at most. most terrans still live on earth


and they could just black hole the planet

[concreteasflesh]

The Ultimate Terran Hero: Chuck Norris the 5th.

When Chuck Norris goes in the water, he doesnt get wet. The water gets Chucked.

[Looper]

I would be totally suprised of they could black hole an entire planet considering it can't suck in a space platform.

[Shadowdragon]

Do they even know where earth is? I would think they would have to find it first. Besides, earth probably isn't the only terran planet now. Getting near enough to invade would be a feat in and of itself.

[Hadean]

So basically I'm a little confused by the very first post as to why the Protoss would want to invade earth?

I'm pretty sure their primary focus is the zerg as they're essentially their mortal enemies and the only times the Protoss have fought the Terrans have been when they've gotten in the crossfire, unintentionally or intentionally. Makes no sense for Toss to attack earth.

Unless (and thats a BIG unless) the Zerg went to Earth and Toss when a sterlizing world rampage.

On a side note, I get the feeling everything I've posted here has been said by someone else. Probably because it makes so much sense.

[i2new@aol.com]

Rubbish, ALL of it Pure Rubbish. Think of a million Thor's walking the land crushing Thousands of zelots/Zerglings but just as the brake the wave of cannon shells they meen there doom and a wall of land mines! and forces to small islands and penuslas they are nuked of the face of the Earth!

Why would Protoss attack Earth? For all we know they and their sister colonies could have 100x the forces as the Terran in the original Galaxy. Not to mention they have fewest numbers of them all. And I don't think attacking the capital world of any race is a good idea. Protoss don't count because they got ganked.

I don't think Terran would do it either... only Zerg, that would be cool but nothing we haven't seen before. Masses of zerglings rushing Marines. It'd be nice if Earth Terran technology took a slight departure from original terran technology. That way IF it were to happen in the campaign, it wouldn't just be zerg attacking terran all over again.

I imagine Earth to probably be the most well-guarded place in all of SC, especially with the knowledge they probably got from the Expeditionary Fleet in BW. It's probably just like Holy Terra in a certain other RTS.

[SirBaron]

The Expeditionary Force sent to the Korprulu sector never made it back. Kerrigan wiped the sector clean of their ships after DuGalle decided it'll be cool to check what would happen to the brain should a small piece of lead enter it.

[JudicatorPrime]

Space-Mail?

[SirBaron]

Hehe, that's a theory, but i think the epilogue in SC: BW specifically stated no ships made it back to report the happenings in the Korprulu sector, which kinda indicates they have no clue whatsoever happened to DuGalle and Stukov. Heck, they might even think they're still alive. Weird thing is though, in the end of the Terran campaign in SC: BW, Earth receives a "Space-Mail" as you said, with (skewed) information regarding the "success" in taming the Overmind.

[JudicatorPrime]

Woot, Space-Mail... patented by me. That'd suck if the information was so totally warped it came through with the completely opposite message it was trying to give. But still... A bazillion men don't return from an uknown hostile galaxy, they gotta take precautions right? And I think Earth will be well defended naturally, even moreso impending an invasion.

It'd be pretty nuts to see quadrillions of Zerg just getting blown to pieces while entering atmosphere... raining ling blood. the awesome CGI dudes over at blizzard could pull it off, and make the worlds best cutscene in the world >.<

[SirBaron]

Maybe. It would seem that they have gotten over their cyberneticsmutantphobia-thing, seeing as they had Ghosts in SC:BW. Yeah, Earth is probably turtled up to the max.
It'd be pretty nuts to see quadrillions of Zerg just getting blown to pieces while entering atmosphere... raining ling blood. the awesome CGI dudes over at blizzard could pull it off, and make the worlds best cutscene in the world >.<
:powerup: I can just imagine Al Gore going on about the atmosphere bleeding and all.

[Itsmyship]

No dude, by this time, Al Gore has already made himself emperor of the solar system :P

[SirBaron]

Come on, Live Earth wasn't that successful...

[JudicatorPrime]

Live Earth was annoying... Emo bands and bad bands should not have been allowed. And Madonna yelled at me :upset:

[ShdwyTemplar]

Actually the Zerg would not rain blood.
They would just go into the Atmosphere on a Creature called a Behemoth. http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Behemoth
Not saying that it wouldn't be hilarious to see that though. It's just not likely is the thing. Then again the Swarm would infest the world once it landed. *Insanely Evil Laughter* >:D Besides from what it seems Earth wouldn't be all that undefended. Seeing as the UED Expeditionary Fleet seems too small to be the full force of Earth. I'm thinking will be seeing more of Earth in SC2. I also make this assumption on the fact the Koprulu Sector's estimated to be about one millionth of the total population of Humanity. So I would expect that 1. Earth will not be invaded by the shear number of Humanity left and 2. If the Zerg did choose to assault Earth. Well, lets put it this way, they will need to be thinking of a lot of new Brood names and create a few new Overminds to control them.

Information brought to you by http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/UED "Dictorate Continues" is where I looked on that page.

@ JudicatorPrime Metallica was there so it can't be all bad.

[Itsmyship]

Eh, Bon Jovi was pretty good, but then again, I like Bon Jovi a lot.

You know what'll happen if we get invaded by the zerg/protoss? We're gonna ressurect the Spartans, teach them to use guns and some pilferred psi blades, and give them a wack at it :P

[Wlck742]

Meh, I think live earth sucked too. I was expecting Metallica to do their old thrash metal, but no. The Black Album.

Back on topic, why would they want Earth? Earth is so standard and boring. We get too much of it in our own lives. By then the oceans would have dried up and the ozone layer virtually nonexistent and the air 99% carbon dioxide. Even the Zerg wouldn't want Earth lol. :P

[Major Willy]

Don't run! The Psi Blades just want to be your friend!

[zeratul11]

Protoss send a Probe to scout Earth
Earth surrenders


lol. good one.

hhmm. i thnik the earth (UED) would be almost invincible.
they have legions of thor guarding it. 8)

[Shadowdragon]

Earth is protected by a ring of scvs. See, the UED got so sick of those guys picking their noses and acting like hicks, that they built a giant rocket, lured them all on to it with candy, and blasted them into space. But the rocket was built by parts from china's factories, so it fell to pieces before it could even escape earth's gravity. Now, the scvs circle in orbit, five billion hicks (earth had a bit of a growth explosion, resulting in premium Earth Core property).

[Major Willy]

Manbearpig will fend off the Zerg and Protoss.

[i2new@aol.com]

Earth is not only to freakin far in the world of starcraft it would be impossable to get reinforcements out to the armys they send to earth. And are solar system would be on freaking lock down. in the world of Star Craft we got people on freakin Pluto. They would be doing a lot of fighting to reach earth, and get a sevear ass wooping once they reached earth if they ever got that close

[Wlck742]

By that time we wouold have perfected cloning and we'd have legions of Chuck Norris whupping a**

[ShoGun]

And Mr. T, and Bruce Lee.

[Isidoros]

Humans from Earth could use something like another Psi Disrupter to stop a zerg invasion of Earth.
I think the Protoss do not have the numbers(after being nearly annihilated on Aiur) to conquere Earth.

[Major Willy]

Plus we can sicc the marine from Doom on them.
He fought off Hell for crying out loud.

[Drafter]

yup your cry has been heard.
I would prefer ugly looking zombies than Zergs invading earth

[Lord David]

An invasion of Earth could happen, but that (as most people have noted) could be more of an expansion type Campaign story mode. This is evident as the guys at Blizzard say the UED, and their remnant fleets (with a high possibility of Valkyries being a Star Edit and Campaign unit), will more or less be delegated a secondary mode and be minor players in the SC2 story line...

[Hadean]

Manbearpig will fend off the Zerg and Protoss.


I'm serial you guys! Why won't anyone take me serial?!!?

But yeah. Invasion of Earth wouldn't work, the human race in the starcraft universe is too vast for even the swarm of the zerg.

[Major Willy]

Protoss and Zerg VS
Marine from Doom.
Ranger from Quake 1.
Marine from Quake 2.
Marine from Quake 4.
BJ Blazkowicz from Wolfenstein.
Gordon Freeman from Half-Life.
Master Chief from... are you that retarded?
Duke Nukem from... see above.

Yeah if all these FPS game heroes were in the Starcraft universe the humans would easily take down the Protoss and Zerg.

[Wlck742]

Gordon Freeman's not really a fighter, he's more a scientist nerd with better brains and luck than most

[Major Willy]

I'd chuck tables/barrels/windows/chairs/fridges/other objects at people with a gun if I had one too.

[Wlck742]

So would I, but in a 1 on 1 match against, say, Master Chief,Freeman would lose provided they use the same weapon set. I mean, it's a scientist in a Haz-Mat suit against an 8-foot tall cyborg.

[slugonice]

by the time of the STARCRAFT game

Earth has been abandoned

[Hadean]

what the hell is slugonice talking about?

And uhm, more importantly, where did he come from? I've never seen him until today where I saw a good 30+ posts all with bold lettering and words completely capitolized?

[DaygoWop]

yea, he is spamming pointless posts. I have already reported him to the mods.

[JudicatorPrime]

Actually Gordon Freeman is a fighter. In HL1 and HL2 the most scientific things he did were push a button and plug in some thing. 90% was shooting and clubbing with the crowbar.

Master Chief would lose... All Gordon needs is the overcharged Gravity gun, right click and there you have a lifeless Master Chief ragdoll. Without that he could sprint around for a good while taking chunks out of Master Chiefs armor. The overpowered gauss rifle would own any Banshee or whatever. The only thing Master Chief could do is smash a giant ****ing space ship onto Gordon Freeman, in light of that a magical floating portal appears like it always does to get him to safety.

[Major Willy]

@Slug Then explain why UED (a force in Brood War) stands for United Earth Defense or something else for D.

Yes, they're going to fight to defend ol' empty mother Earth.

[slugonice]

I'm sorry...
I simply misread a SC document

Earth has been abandoned

I was referring to this:

Then, the government gathers several thousands of its prisoners, and launches them into space on four separate ships. Three ships are led by one super carrier, which is controlled by a computer called ATLAS. Over the course of the trip, ATLAS malfunctions, and forces each ship to crash land on a different planet (some thousands of light-years from Earth). Each group of survivors emerge from their ships, unaware of the survivors on the neighboring planets.

[Major Willy]

Ah but it's just referring to the beginning of the Terrans.

Every single non UED character (that's human, obviously) that you've seen are descended from those criminals. Earth is just "pure" now except for the possible incarcerated people that were arrested after the carrier launches.

[Wlck742]

UED stands for United Earth Directorate, but that doesn't mean Earth is populated, Earth could just be a symbol, and UED is just a fancy name aimed towards propaganda.

[Major Willy]

So Earth was mysteriously wiped out after the prisoner shipping?

[Wlck742]

It could have been gradual. A plague or global warming or a supervolcano, any thing could have done it..

[Armadeo]

Earth hasn't been abandoned.....The UED is from Earth. Don't you all remember the propaganda segment at the end of the Terran campaign in BW?

The UED was trying to justify the invasion of the Korpula Sector to its citizens by claiming that the Zerg were going to invade Earth next.

At any rate, before the events of Starcraft, I'm sure that either the Protoss or the Zerg could have easily invaded Earth without much trouble at all. After the events of Starcraft though, both races were severely weakened due to the heavy losses during the chaos that followed the death of the overmind, and I doubt either of them are currently a match for the forces of Earth.

[Hadean]

Armadeo, prior to the war in starcraft the UED still outnumbered them by millions.

Earth was neither abandoned nor did it succumb to any sort of disaster. Now from what i've read they rounded up about 800,000 thou prisoners and sent them on their way. (the terrans of Koprolu sector) I also remember seeing that the prisoners represented 1 millionth of the Earth's and it's outlying colonies population. That means the UED consists of 800 billion people. I'm pretty sure the Protoss and Zerg cant match that even if they both had mad inter-racial sex.
