Ahh so one of those people that builds the home base defense fleet and sends whatever is left to take on the enemy... |

Argue the game, not the gamer. Attacking me, personally gets you nowhere.
On the contrary, Every race in Warcraft 3 has the same basic build. Three different tiers of main buildings, one far ranged siege unit, two casters, each twice upgradable, one heavy tank. The differences between the races in Warcraft III are there, granted, but nowhere near those of Starcraft.
Eh. Doubtful. Strategies in Warcraft are based completely around the units you decide to put in your army and, really, not much more. You build your army and you send it to attack...Very few overall tactics, though there is micro involved...Same can be said about all RTS though, including Starcraft...Micro is always going to play a major role in any RTS...Not one more than another.
Hardly, as Pendant pointed out.
More micro? There isn't more micro in Warcraft than Starcraft...Because micro is not something that is put into the game...Maybe YOU use less micro in Starcraft, but that doesn't mean there is none.
Umm...Yeah, that makes sense...But nowhere did I say anything about defensive buildings. I said defense...And yes, defense IS a part of RTS. Defense CAN, contrary to what you may believe, consist of units. And...What? You're saying building defense is bad "in ANY RTS"? That's so wrong. Have you ever played Read Alert 2? If you don't build intense AA structures then you can expect to have your Construction Yard (essentially, if you don't have one of these, you lose) destroyed instantly by enemy aircraft. Not only that, but they can just as easily, assuming you don't have any AA towers, destroy your War Factory or Service Depot, disallowing the building of another Con Yard. Saying defense is useless is...A fatal tactical error. |

IC IC. Well remember that the best offense is a good defense. At least until the enemies get all the resources and own you with their massive numbers. |

Yeah, since 3/4 of our armies were killed from, you know, keeping up an offense and defense. |

If I could pull it off, I used to love sending in like 30 guardians and 12 hydralisks and a few overlords. Kept the hydralisks highlighted so they would only attack air units headed towards the guardians. But it's also fun to watch Guardians just destroy everything from long range. GO GO SPITTLE ATTACKS! |

XD I think the biggest air attack was when I got bored one day and just mind-controlled with Protoss and maxed out my unit limit with as many air units as possible. |

I'm a defense freak and I can't help it =/ Whether it's effective or not it's what I'll do. Which is why I'd usually be terrans back when I played. |
