Okay. I have no idea if this is actually going to work. I haven’t played StarCraft 2 in weeks, mostly because I’ve been taking it too seriously. It’ s one thing to want to improve one’s performance and quite another when it overshadows having fun in a game or making time for other distractions. I… Continue reading The Future of the Art of Thor

Meet the Amaranthine
Are we more than what we seem? We all walk around in similar skins, physical forms that are at once miracles of evolution and unremarkable slabs of gradually decaying meat. For ages man has posited that their existences reach beyond the ticking clock under which we all live. Man has sought gods, crafted timeless works,… Continue reading Meet the Amaranthine

The Art of Thor: Close Air Support
He who is skilled in attack flashes forth from the topmost heights of heaven. StarCraft 2 encourages aggressive play. It’s why we see so many infantry rushes. But your foot soldiers are not the only weapons at your disposal if you want to bring the battle to a swift end. Not every player will agree,… Continue reading The Art of Thor: Close Air Support
Game Review: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012
Outside of the card game, Magic the Gathering seems to be a case of ‘never as sweet as the first time’ for me. The first novel, Arena, seems to be one of the best they’ve released. I read the most recent one, Quest for Karn, and… let’s just say it’s hard for me to believe… Continue reading Game Review: Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012

The Art of Thor: Talking Terrain
Siege tanks love some high ground. With regard to narrow passes, if you can occupy them first, let them be strongly garrisoned and await the advent of the enemy.* Should the army forestall you in occupying a pass, do not go after him if the pass is fully garrisoned, but only if it is weakly… Continue reading The Art of Thor: Talking Terrain

The Art of Thor: The Tortoise and the Hare
The Viking: Fast, smashing anti-air missiles, wide vision area. Great for both offense & defense. The Art of War teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of our enemy’s not coming, but on our own readiness to recieve our enemy; not on the chance of our enemy’s not attacking, but rather on the fact… Continue reading The Art of Thor: The Tortoise and the Hare
