Karune’s Q&A Batch 9 is out, and while most of the questions are the typical mundane, boring, useless questions (why do they pick such dumb questions to answer?) there is one that really caught my interest:

There will be units included in the Map Editor which will not be in the standard multiplayer skirmish mode. These will include various units from the original StarCraft, such as the Protoss Dragoon.

Awesome right? I’m so glad they decided to include at least some original StarCraft units in the map editor. Although I’m not sad that the Dragoon didn’t make it to the multiplayer SC2 skirmish/melee mode (how hard was it to get a damn Dragoon down a ramp?!) it will be nice to see them along with other original favorites pop up in UMS games!
