StarCraft 2: The Crystal Shards 07 - Excavation 

Thank you for the kind words about the campaign. It has been a huge effort in making it as "Blizzard-like" as possible, I'm really glad it is noticable. Yes you are correct, Glaciara has been re-calibrated for difficulty. This project will continue to get balance changes for a long while, and your feedback/summaries are very helpful in understanding where the painpoints are from a blind playthrough perspective. Keep up the awesome job, love watching these! :) PS. The Cyclone does *not* lock onto 3 targets simultaneously, it just holds 3 charges of lock-on so it can quickly cycle between targets. However, I will toy around with seeing what it is like to have it be a simultaneous ability in the next update. Predators will be getting a solid rework as well!

My guess for the 10 excavation sites thing is that you can’t complete the mission until you talk to Oatis, hence the Adjutant being pushy about it.

So, we get both pyro- AND cryo- bats, not something often seen :P Fun fact, the word solli, minus one l, makes the medieval name of a bosnian city called tuzla(was called salines during roman times, and acquired its current name during ottoman rule), meaning salt city(almost every country has a salt city of one sort or another).

Really enjoying this campaign!

…How has it been one hour and I’m first? Either way, looking forward to seeing the other planet, the desert was a neat set of missions. Firebats against terrans, huh…

Heh I like that this map subverts our expectations. We think that Shard is going to be in the last excavation, but turns out it was not even in our general search area! I am curious though, since it was Oatis that lets you know that the Junkers found it in the end, what happens if you complete all the excavations before talking to him? I am guessing Stetmann would eventually realise he was searching in the wrong place and contact Oatis for questions. That was probably what the search 10 dig sites achievement was about - if you didn't speak to Oatis you would probably need to search all 10 dig sites instead of just 7. I like that there are multiple ways to complete this mission.

This plan is proof Statmann is a real patriot!

New update?
