Yehat: I love the sound their guns make. Just makes you yell "BLAM BLAM BLAM" outloud.

Umgah: The funniest race, and I'm a biology major.

and the Spathi because of their dry, self depricating humor.

If there were a mod, would you want EVERY star re-arranged or just major stars?

Just to clarify, you are you talking about just moving stuff to different systems, not just moving stars cooridinates?

I would only want to put everything important on entirely different stars. ie Sylandro are at Beta Sagitarri or something, Zex's Monster in a different recognizable constellation (like Horologi could be "It basks in yellow light in the 'Bloody Eye') . Possibly have rainbow worlds pointing another direction. Maaybe even swap around  certain spheres of influence and homeworld locations.

I literally don't know anything about the capabilities of modding to this game. Would it be hard to add just text in the dialouge for clues towards the new locations?

I know it would still be easy for people who know the game by heart, because you would still know what you're looking for, but it would make it harder. The first time I ever beat this game I was like 8 or 9 and I'm pretty sure I used a lot of guides. I wish there was some way to play through it totally from scratch.

Hi everyone, new to the boards here:

I've been a SCII fan as long as I can remember, ever since I got it for 3DO way back when. I was just now reading these boards, and saw stuff about mods. I have also recently been playing the game through, on my PC this time, probably for the 5th or 6th time. Its still fun, but I wish I didn't know where everything was by heart. That gave me an idea.

Would it be possibe to make a mod where everything was moved around? Change the planets and star systems everything important was in? Perhaps even rearranging spheres of influence? I guess the really hard part about this would be changing the hints you got throughout the game. Well anyway, just an idea, sorry if its been brought up before.
