And below is the Screen Shot of the Month and this time it’s from StarCraft II’s Beta. And because it’s hard to make out the details, this and any others I put up will be in 1094 x 819, just click on the image to see it enlarged. Don’t forget, you can post your submission in the thread on the forums and we’ll put it up and credit you. Here are some Battle Cruisers (and a Yamato blast) finishing up an enemy Terran base on Twilight Fortress.

Blizzard sent out another batch of Beta Keys to players today. So keep on checking your emails. You may be getting one today or possibly this weekend if you’re lucky. They seem to be sending them frequently so that is good news on the progress of the game.

And we are still working on the SCII Terran and Zerg unit pages. They should be up by the end of this coming week. I’ll be updating the screen shot/poll of the month soon too.
