That's one of the big features of my SST map. There, you can regularily see effective task forces of less than 5 or 6 units. Give them a group number, remember the hotkeys for their abilities, and you're set.

Re: Starcraft
I play this in teams on multiplayer with a bunch from work, typically I play Terran, which can be very effective defensively and the others play Zerg or Protoss. I defend all three bases and they attack. Its very effective( both the strat and the game) at relieving AWS (After Work Stress).
Its a cool game and definately worth playing especially if you can get a friendly group together.

Re: Starcraft
There's one thing I've always wondered about Starcraft: why are the buildings so big on the inside and so small on the outside? 
And now I've caught the must-play-Starcraft bug too, but I lost my Brood War disk, though I still have the Starcraft one. I wonder if SJ's maps are SC+BW or SC only... |

I'm not sure. One of them may be.
I'll whip up some more if you want. (Its fairly straightforward adjustments to stock maps, and then test-playing to make sure the AI won't lock up on a bad start position.)

Re: Starcraft
Bumpity-bump-bump!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Hours and hours of time wasted so far! Fun game.
Does anyone know what Structure the "Covert Operations" add-on is supposed to attach to? I "found" one but I can't seem to build anything next to it, and I need it to Cloak my Ghost Spotters!
Thanks,

Re: Starcraft
Science facility. You need Factory and Space Port built first though, and for Factory you need Barracks first. For Barracks you need Command Center =D.
