Ok so this is the second part of Terrans for da N00bz this section focuses more on your factory made units and there are a plethora of strategies to use involving these units.
***NOTE*** Once again, my strategies are built for fighting Terrans.
Ok to start:
Make SCVs till you get 7 then start to make a supply depot
Keep on pumping SCVs and make one more supply depot then make a Barracks
Turn that barracks into a reactor and start pumping out marines and build 2 more supply depots
Make 2 more barracks and attach tech labs to both of them and start to pump out Marauders
From here if you want you can try for an early rush if you got these steps out quickly, or build up an army
next you will want to make one expansion and build 2 missile turrets on either side and pump out SCVs
***NOTE*** Now you may start to want to make sensor towers and a bunch of missile turrets for fear of cloaked units.
Build your first factory and upgrade to a tech labs, build two more factories with tech labs and an armory
Once the armory finishes start to pump out oodles of Thors (does anyone notice how Thors LOOK like the Governator as well as SOUND like him? COINCIDENCE, I THINK NOT!!)along with your marines and marauders
Now, once you get around 10-15 thors you will want to roll out and attack the enemy base.
You may want to attack from two different sides to truly ensure victory

Terrans for da Noobz
Although I have not tried any of the other races yet, I greatly enjoy playing with Terrans, the race similar to humans. So if you are struggling to play with Terrans, then here are a few tips for how to fend off and completely wreck your enemies.
*****NOTE*****
This strategy works BEST on Terrans. Both Protoss and Zerg have early units with true sight.
Ok all you Terrans out there when building a base you ALWAYS want to have sensor towers on each point of your bases, with these you can detect all visible units movement. In between the sensors you should build missile turrets so you can detect those pesky banshees and dark templars that come a-snoopin in your base. Now then, depending on wheather you want to go air, ground, or a combination, the strategies will diverge here.
Ok if you are going air:
you will want 2-3 starports
Ok, so send all of your SCV's on minerals and get 1 more
keep getting SCV's till you have 9, then build supply depots till u have about 20 population and continue building supply depots throughout the entire game (obviously, only n00bs dont know that!)
start getting some minerals and build 3 barracks, then a factory, then a starport and a tech lab
With 2 of the barracks get tech labs quickly and start pumpin out marauders. With the third get a (oh whats it called...) well...the other attachment and start pumping out marines faster than zergling rushers
Now you will want to extend, get an SCV and send it to a mineral field and build a base(build a bunch of SCV's once its done)
build ur second starport and get a tech lab and build a fusion core
after both buildingts are done, build another base at a 3rd mineral field(when its done get a bunch of SCV's) and build another starport
Now with 2 starports make tech labs on both of them and start pumping out banshees.
with the 3rd starport get a reactor (just remembered the name! yessssss)and start to spam some vikings
Once you have about 20 - 30 vikings and 10-15 banshees you should attack.
Attack with the vikings and then cloack the banshees and attack from the side of their base quickly taking out all their SCV's, their base, and production facilities
Now for all you n00bz out there I'm sure you are wondering why I don't get battlacruisers. Welll, the truth is is that they REALLY suck. For what you pay for them Thors are far superior and give you more bang for your buck.

Starcraft 2
The sensation that is Starcraft 2 is still sweeping the globe as thousands of people delve deeper into their basements so as not to be disturbed by the so-called "humans." People have been waiting 12 years for a sequel to the absolutely astounding original RTS (real time strategy) known as Starcraft. Starcraft wormed its way deep into all peoples hearts especially the Koreans who made it a national sport.
When I first started playing Starcraft 2 I thought,"This isnt that much fun...," but I only thought that because I lost every battle. However as I got better I realized the thrill of outwitting your opponent and watching your units destroy their base. So for everyone who is still struggling with winning in Starcraft 2 I have some tips for you in my next post.
So keep reading =D
