"Let's get Vehicle Weapons... Let's get Vehicle Ships..." Even after researching the correct upgrade, Grant was broken psychologically. 😔

That Duke Nukem joke was honestly perfect! Never apologize for a good dad joke! 10/10 remembered to sub for dad jokes.

"I don't have any clicks left in me" said the Chad casually holding a steady 222 APM.

"Wraiths? Who makes wraiths!" says man who instantly pans over to his army of wraiths.

Mengsk: *accuses the confederates of using the zerg to kill their enemies to then ride in and be lauded as heroes for destroying the zerg afterwards *uses the zerg to kill his enemies and be lauded as a hero for destroying the zerg afterwards

Hey Grant, I just want to let you know, that the next mission New Gettysburg and The Hammer Falls contain something called "EUD" Triggers. It was first time I ever experimented with them and once I realized some of the issues, I decided way later (Terran BW) to stop using them. These provide much finer control over certain triggers using memory manipulation but have a few side effects and I'll list them below: 1) SC Remastered introduced extended units (going above 1650 units) but EUDs disable this. 2) Saving is disabled. (main complaint) 3) Even when "Achieving Victory," the post score screen will instead always show the "defeat" screen instead. (causes confusion) What are the EUD intentions? In this mod, it is only used to detect a hero's health and regenerate their health when out of combat.

"Oh no they've got detection!", as his wraiths gradually run out of energy and decloak one by one :D

To be specific about how AI Vision works, the AI is every bit beholden to the rules of Unit Vision that you are. A Siege Tank cannot fire beyond its vision range unless another unit is spotting for it, and units cannot fire up cliffs unless something is giving them vision up there. However, the AI knows where your stuff is, and _if_ they're programmed to check, they know what you have. Big "if" on that last part. If you expand, they know where your expansion is. Whether they'll care is another question altogether.

"Ya'll need some good old-fashioned HP.....that's what you need...." -General Duke probably

The SC1 siege tank sure is a unit...isn't it. Especially with pretty much no air presence.

2 things i really like here: Grant doing multiple missions an episode, thus speeding through this relatively long SC1 mod, which I'm sure a lot of people would get tired of seeing fairly quickly And Grant specifically mentioning that battlecruisers were an option near the start of the mission, and then being surprised 5 minutes later when he built a starport and saw that battlecruisers were an option. It's just so relatable

26:15 "We've dealt with an attack wave" Grant said, sending all of his troops away. It'll be fine, he thought. Just as a massive double attack wave came right after xD

In addition to the Science Vessel death sound, SC1 sound design was honestly phenomenal. My favorite is the Siege Tank, where when sieging, you here the stepped progression of it extending the legs, anchoring the tank into position, and then priming the cannon, and the siege mode shot is a thing of beauty. The thunderous roar of every shot showed any enemy that you meant business. Kind of sad that SC2 watered down a lot of the sounds (I understand it was audio cohesion on the battlefield, but it just doesn't sound the same, ditto for the music).

The way Grant haphazardly places his supply depots infuriates me

Grant: Orange is brown with context Me: I understood that reference

'duke... nuke'em' sir... i laughed harder at that than i had any right to >

23:10 Grant, when you pause the video you can see that SCVs going to the left have a darker color, due to the lighting/reflections going on, than the SCVs going to the right. What really makes it horrible though are the yellow flames lighting up whenever they move. This together really makes it really look like they shift from brown to orange.

I love Executor Nral's stuff... but I can exactly understand why you wouldn't use that campaign here. Thank you for mentioning it though, and the explanation. Peace!

"WHO GOES WRAITHS" says the man building wraiths like it's a hot new fad

Teal is epsilon squadron. They weren't amused by your dismissal so they betrayed Tarsonis.

Also I did not know that nukes do 500 or 2/3of max health whichever is higher, so damn the fact that you had the idea for that joke taught me something

I'm sad to hear that about Nral's version of the mod, but i understand your point, it is better to play the mod as envisioned by the original creator, especially if alterations might "sour" people, then again considering the Duke Nukem joke i think his humor would fit the series like a glove tho XD

This playthrough has already been so good, nostalgic vibes for the original game combined with the new twist and Grant-grade memes.

17:46 sc1 siege tanks actually have higher DPS when sieged up, as well as it being splash so it has potential to deal even more damage and being longer-ranged. the tank mode attack is really just there for early game attacks before you have siege mode, and for when you're caught off-guard.

Big Push is rather easy IF first thing you build is Scanner. Your starting army and Ally tanks+bunkers are enough to kill all Ghosts attacking bunker line, so that only an elevated platform is affected. Then It's just a matter of getting North-West refineries and Nuking the enemy. Either way you need Ghosts for these missions for lockdown, as later enemy will attack with mass BCs - and this is SC base, so Golliaths don't have range upgrade. Also killing Duke with Nukes is very easy, else you need Lockdown or at least 12 own BCs to battle enemy BCs, Duke and other units. And 12 might be not enough. It simply turns into a push, but from the other side.

Imagine playing through the campaign and your opponent every mission is Grant, that must be how nightmare difficulty is

imagine you rub a magic lamp and didn't know it so you waste your wishes on "wish there was a gas geyser there the whole time"

Every single episode Grant realizes he can build battlecruisers and then doesnt build them. He is slowly turning into a goldfish ,trapped in his streamer aquarium :(

“Nuclear launch detected.” is such good memories.

31:57 I could be wrong, Look at the map when the nuke was announced. A red dot appeared near your turrets and tanks on the middle left. Your tanks in the fenced area killed the ghost.

"Who goes Wraith?" Proceeds to go Wraith

26:28 Cloaked ghosts - Move them in to the middle, and Hold Position - they auto fire everything around them. No micro, focus fire or targeting. Just Hold Position.

23:00 Yes, the colors appear to be changing between brown and orange. Other than the Technology Connections videos where he showcased it, I have not seen such a clear demonstration. Starcraft: ahead of it's time

Broodwar siege tanks do more single target DPS sieged up actually. In SC2 they do more single target damage in tank mode due to their high attack speed.

On the psi emitter mission, I played it yesterday and stole the emitter as it was sitting on the ground. The AI got so confused!! 😂 Great series and mod!!!

It'd be cool to have multiplayer (1v1) maps where one player plays the normal campaign PoV, and the other plays the reverse version.

"i hate it when people online are right cause makes me confused and scared" i may have messed it up but that is one of the best quotes ever lol so true!

What i love of this reverse campaigns is when they adapt what would the player do in this situation, and this mod is all about the casual starcraft 1 player of the 90's and early 2000s that would just build a giant base with ton of macro (if they knew to boom in economy) and steamroll you with a fully capped army. Funny enough every RTS of the time had that tradition until Warcraft 2 and Starcraft 1 which had the issue of managing a massive army with the unit selection cap. Also terran mech is prefered cuz its less micro than bio given you don't have to go in unit control group hell.

Deathless Reversed SC1 when? Just kidding. Great videos Grant, thank you for being the only person that plays RTSes that I follow.

23:53 "I definitely have a pre-built-in Nuke sense, and it is a different StarCraft that the nuke sense is from." yeah it is. At 22:32 you tried building a Nuke with only 119 minerals and 359 gas, which would work in SC2 where nukes only cost 100 minerals and 100 gas, but in SC1 Nukes Cost 200 minerals and 200 gas each.

Oh grant thank you so much for all your content! Every time I have a bad day & need familiar things to calm down to, I come to your channel, especially SC1 stuff. Really improves my mood every time.

Now we just need Alec to do something on Starcraft. It's not the crossover we asked for, but it is the one we need.

It’s insane how quickly you can get an absurd amount of tanks in sc1, like, their supply cost is so low!

The sound of lockdown haunts my dreams from being a kid and thinking the infinite energy cheat would be fun

those scvs were definitely shifting colours

I’ve been really enjoying playing these missions along with you and seeing how you approach them after I ve played them myself

Here comes the Gantrithor

23:17 Whoa, you think someone would _do_ that?? Go on the internet and _tell the truth!?!?_

These are great! Please keep em coming.

26:33 In the original SC1, a cloaked ghost on *hold position* will fire on anything in range.

Duke was Battlecruising for a bruising 😎

If I remember correctly, setting cloaked units to patrol will get them to auto attack. The brown/orange thing was also visible to me.

“The Wraiths keep getting pulled!” Damn, if only there was some way to get them to Hold their Position…

i love how you go "let's long distance mine from this gas, it takes 9 guys" so instead of getting another cc for 400 mins, which would also have a better position on several mineral patches and another slot for nukes/comsat, you decide to spend 300 mins on SCVs (9 instead of the usual 3 means 6 additional scvs; 6*50=300 before anyone starts correcting me)

Those SCVs are definitely looking brown as heck for orange team. Technology Connections is such a cool channel!

it always terrfies me when grant says his strategy is to contain the enemy and then proceeds to only contain the bottom bridge while letting his ally defend the top left entrance

Really enjoying the double feature vids for this mod

Grant, from many a video ago: "Wraiths are strong Anti-Air Fighters with a Tickle Beam for Ground Targets." Also Grant: "Are Wraiths OP?" I mean, I guess they're better than scouts and we'll never need to build those in this scenario...

Grant is absolutely spot on with the orange is brown comment.

Need to go to sleep but this is fascinating. I love this game and these reverse maps are great.

Duke hasn’t been the same since we called him Dukie

I can't believe that random video I watched once about Brown being dark orange has come up

Best part of going to bed at midnight. Falling asleep to Grant

this is shaping to be a great series!

That one battle scv at the end was doing the lords work

GGG: Goes wraiths Also GGG: 33:29

I love finding out that Grant also watches Technology Connections

That nuclear barrage really hurt hard. But Grant's eco was untouched so it wasn't too bad.

Don’t you DARE apologize for that dad joke. That was gold and you’d been holding it in for 25 minutes.

Just finished part 2. Good timing.

What I learned in this video is that grant also watches technology comnections. Good times.

I've watched Executor Nral's series of Sc1 reversed and I was wondering why Grant wasn't running into hordes of enemies at the 5 min mark. I didn't know there were two versions of this mod.

It's such a pain to see that you never ever repair units. Incredible)

Little late to episode but at 31:52 there's a red dot that moves into your base through the turrets just right of center then disappears as the nuke launch gets called. Think it was killed before launch got off.

The Duke Nukem joke caused physical harm but I wouldn't have wanted to miss out on it for anything.

Grant didn’t have to do a double feature. But he did anyway. Because he’s just so cool

42:16 That joke got me way harder than I think it should have. 🤣

Who was the Wings of Liberty designer who thought Wraiths need to cost 50 more gas?

you said to get vehicle ships, so here it is: I ship the vulture with the tank

Should we say that that joke at the end was pun-ishible? :) Thanks for the fun reversal! ^^

I love watching grant see a vespene geyser, ask "is this a base? No." And then ignore the minerals 10 feet away when he actually scouts. Edit for part 2. Marines are great as a mineral dump. They meat shield for siege tanks to get set up, they help clear air, they are better than ghosts or firebats in bunkers. They die to everything, sure, but i can't build more BCs or tanks or wraith due to low vespene, and it is too early game to be running depleted, so send in the boys.

Ngl, that Terran Mech push was beautiful

So happy to see that Grant has found my favorite unit of the game: the wraith.

Duke will be missed. Until later.

the wraiths finally got their lunch orders, so happy for them

This is cool af bro!! 💯

Grant needs a battle cruiser each time he gets Terran just to have his own duke

I've finished this mod all the way to the brood war grant and let me tell you, final mission of the vanilla terran is ABBSURDD it took me hours to beat. defending the enemy is fine but their defense is SOOO GOOOD you have to take caution. i opted for goliath siege tank science vessel army but you can add air units too. the number of ghosts on that mission punishes you for going battlecruiers so be carefull. They LOVE ghosts.

Duke's pride must have been destroyed in this mission because he and his alpha squadron boys got demolished by either the delta squadron or the omega squadron boys 😂😂😂😂😂😂

42:16-42:20 That was terrible Grant and I LOVED it. We should both be ashamed of ourselves.

duke get's nuked forever bc it's duke nuke'em forever

Starcraft 1 is basically infantry simulator in modern warfare: artilery shreads infantry

If only we could hear the jealousy and admiration in Mengsks voice.... :-)

glad we got to see the return of depot world

21:53 I think Duke learned new trick from his new employer.

Saw you posted the Finale and realized I was several episodes behind

Yes, I know that technology connections video. Love all his videos

Half the time the enemy didn't have detection, it was just wraiths running out of energy...

42:08 Oh god 🤣🤣🤣

Forgot to comment on first parts... I beat this campaign it's a blast! Check out the insane AI single and insane Co op campaigns too please. Keep it up Grant!
