I think that the Zerg would stop any kind of mass destruction attack against Char. Otherwise it doesn't makes any sense for them to not use Nukes, or purify the planet.

If you recall the news report and Horner's assessment after, it's stated that the worst hit are the Dominion core worlds and that Mengsk had consolidated his forces at his major resource points. That's a logical plan. Spreading your already overwhelmed forces too thin is a surefire way to be defeated. It's better to save some than try to save all and losing it all in the process. Moreover, holding onto these facilities gives the Dominion a better chance to mount a response.

In a game, how fiercely would you defend your mined out expansion versus your main base or major income sources?

I cannot understand very well what they say in the shitty-quality video in english, but i think they said that the Zerg launched a full scale attack to the outer rim planets. They mention a vespene refinery, however.

The title of th report stated that the Core Worlds were being invaded. This was pointed out again when Raynor speaks to Horner who says that the Zerg's biggest push was against the Dominion Core Worlds.

Actually, the only thing mentioned was that Kerrigan was attacking the outer rim, though the mention of a Dominion Research Facility suggests they're pushing deeper into Dominion territory proper quickly.



"The Zerg Swarm launched a full-scale attack spread throughout the whole Outer Rim planets. Casualties in the billions."

"Minutes ago the Zerg attacked a Dominion military research facility."

That's the most ridiclious mistake Blizzard could make regarding the Lore,There was a topic which was argued about it A LOT...I guess saing something like 'casualties in the billions' is more easy than to say 'casualties are in the millions'.... Even though it contradicts againts EVERYTHING the Lore has been before SC2 :X Billions millions trillions i guess blizzard dudes don't care about such a 'little detail' all numbers are the same right?? pfff HAHAHAHA

Stop at the 1 minute mark and you'll see "Core worlds" in the title, which is what I believe peasant is talking about. Hard to see because of the stupid advertising bar thing.

[Visions of Khas]

Yeah, it looks like "Core Worlds Disaster."

But really, we can't make any assessments about how the Core Worlds are doing versus the Outer Rim in 2505 because... SC2 isn't out yet. So, we can only talk of events up to this point. At this point we're kinda quibbling over scraps, clues and bias.

Well, there's this as well:



At about 7.30, Horner specifically states that the Dominion Core Worlds are where the Zerg are focusing on.

Confederacy,Dominon....??? How exacly does they care about Earth or the opposite? They live their lives 36 000 LY away and some of them don't even remember where they come from or why they get here in the first place,It's like you are living on a island isolated in the Pacific the world doesn't even care you are there and a terrible plague or disease comes and all of your people die what does that mean? Maybe not extinction probably annilhilation,same thing...And the whole ban on nukes in the Lore was to shift the game from other strategies with superweapons(RA2,Generals etc...) I mean today we have ICBMs i can't imagine what they will have 500 years from now....And how come they produce 'warp drives' but they can't produce nukes on mass??? Here in the 21st century using only a fraction of all the avaible materials on Earth to make Nukes we have build tonnage to end life on the Planet dozens of times?? Imagine what can you do with 15 planets with 500 years of advancements in science???

So you have no proof, and all you have is "Umm, maybe!." Bring proof or your claim has no value.

[Visions of Khas]

Touche, peasant. I forgot that little nugget.

Proof to what??? To the fact that they can travel FTL and construct gargantuan warships BUT THEY CAN"T PRODUCE NUKES????
