How to Beat Terran on "Starcraft"
Terran is one of the three races available for gameplay in the popular game "StarCraft." "StarCraft" is a top-down view military strategy game where the player controls all aspects of an alien fighting force collecting resources, training fighters and launching strategic attacks. Each race has its own unique strengths and weaknesses. It is important to utilize these weaknesses when fighting against the Terran race to launch a successful attack and ultimately win the battle.

Quickly destroy all Terran SCVs. These units gather resources and construct new buildings. The enemy will quickly run out of resources and must use whatever resources they have left to construct more SCVs if they are removed.

2
Eliminate Terran Turrets and Science Vessels if you are using cloaked units. Cloaked units are visible when Turrets and Science Vessels are nearby. Destroying them will allow your cloaked units to attack the enemy while being protected. Watch for Science Vessels that may be hiding just outside of the base.

3
Scramble your units when a nuclear launch is detected. The Terran's nuclear bomb can destroy a large number of units within its blast radius. You will be made aware when a nuke approaches your base, but cannot know where it is aimed. Move all your major unit clusters that may be vulnerable to attack to avoid one of them being eliminated in a single blast.

4
Build a defense against mobile buildings around your base. Terran's have the unique ability to liftoff critical buildings and relocate them anywhere on the map. A flying Command Center or Baracks can sneak in behind your base and create an entire army in your backyard if you're not careful.

5
Keep several air units ready for attacks from Terran Siege Tanks. These tanks have an extremely long range and can destroy armies very quickly. Siege Tanks cannot attack air units and a small cluster of air attackers can quickly take out these units.
-
6
Build units that are effective against mechanical units. Most Terran units are mech based and are vulnerable to electric attacks, stasis fields and special abilities that drain a unit's energy. It is crucial to take out these big and powerful mechanical units quickly.
