    I quite enjoyed the Korhal arc, even though it really shouldn't have been the focus, but it was fun to play and fun to finally get rid of Mengsk.

    "I had the feeling that I'd 'earned' the right to have a carte blance approach. Don't get me wrong, I love the objective-focussed nature of the WoL and HotS campaigns. But Korhal had an SC1 feeling, and in a good way. I could fight as I wanted, and live or die by my own tactical merits (or lack of them - I'm a lowly bronze after all)."

    Also this, it was a sort of "Destroy the enemy base" type mission that's ironically missing from SC2, I wish blizzard hadn't over corrected and gotten rid of nearly all of that sort of gameplay, seeing as how that's what drew me to the series to begin with.
    The Korhal arc was fine, reminded me SLIGHTLY of the UED's invasion of Korhal, just on an easier scale. But then, the UED foolishly didn't destroy the Dominion industrial worlds. With regards to fighting as you wanted, the 1st of the Skygeirr missions could be interpreted like that too, as you never really NEEDED the infested terrans in the first place...

    Wishful thinking is fine, but nothing in BW ever suggests this. Also, what with WoL segregating Kerrigan into a good human side (the bit that loves Raynor) and evil Queen of Blades side (the bit that just wants to kill everything), this would be even more unlikely to happen since without the artifact/prophecy stuff, we'd be stuck with only having the homicidal Queen of Blades.
    Yes, that's right! That is indeed ME on the right.

    I understand that. This is why I had constantly asked that in the "True Colors" mission, just WHERE was Raynor on Korhal? Because I refuse to believe Kerrigan did not order the swarm to attack him simply because he was too far away and out of reach. Even if that WAS the case, there had to be another reason....

    Maybe Raynor just wasn't physically there at the time, like Mengsk was.

    Maybe Kerrigan didn't kill Raynor because she thought he was an insignificant ant that was not worth the effort or time to chase/kill (like she does in Agent of the Swarm) whilst Fenix and Duke, being more annoying, belligerent and dangerous, were more worthy of being killed.
    Yes, that's right! That is indeed ME on the right.

    True, but he had to at least have been close, like being on the Hyperion, which was in high orbit over Korhal.

    The epilogue makes it pretty clear that she was going to let them live and was worried about... something else.

    The epilogue was only clear that she was worried about something else, not that she was going to let them live.

    "As for my unlikely allies, I think that I shall allow them a reprieve. For in time I will seek to test their resolve, and their strengths. They will all be mine in the end, for I am the Queen of Blades."

    Seems pretty clear she's going to allow them to live until the sequel.

    ^ Read what I wrote originally and carefully. "Killed everyone eventually". I didn't write that last word offhandedly.

    I think a new poll is in order with just Char vs Skygeirr.

    Make FanaticTemplar, Visions of Khas, Jconant, Robear, Hawki, and KaiseStratosTygo all revote. =p
