"Advanced scientific concepts are often very difficult to convey in press articles, and while its wonderful that people are excited about astronomy, they often take away little more than 'this universe is pretty'," said Targett. They’re interested in seeing if further study of video game communities can yield scientific insights similar to the Corrupted Blood Incident in World of Warcraft, a viral outbreak that was used to study the spread of real world epidemics. Break a Siege Tank Line with Overlord Drops. Just a few Lurkers can hold a ramp against much larger ground forces though when long range units like Siege Tanks appear, a scuttling retreat may become necessary. The focus of the study was mainly to raise awareness of the scientific method and the statistical sciences, but the researchers are trying to get some good out of the process. The high ground in StarCraft is powerful, and no Zerg unit is better at taking advantage of it than the Lurker. Though the researchers say the races would be very nearly deadlocked, this strategy would give the Terrans a slight advantage.

StarCraft: Brood War required You play as Confederate Sgt. “By observing the average success of each civilization over many simulations, we are able to trace smaller effects which were present only on the larger statistical level,” reads a blog post that accompanied the paper (PDF).
