Valerian become my second favorite character because of this. He is like Anduin except he actually do shit instead of diplomat talk. He bring half of entire dominion invasion fleet, refused to listen to his father and apparently in the book his fighting skill is what led to Kerrigan and Jim Raynor escape.
Not quite-- in a between-missions cutscene prior to this, Valerian openly states that he wants to be a *better* Emperor than his father, and just flat-out a *better MAN* (to which Raynor snarks, 'Well, *that* ain't gonna be too hard.'). And to his credit, once he assumes the throne? Valerian proves that he IS a better man, and a better Emperor; a million times more than Daddy Mengsk EVER was. Rather than being primarily concerned with dominon and personal power like Arcturus ('I will *rule* this Sector, or see it *burn to ashes around me!*', anyone?), Valerian actually gives a damn about the people he reigns over, considers *their* well-being over all else, and tries to govern the peoples of the Terran Dominion fairly, justly, and responsibly. (That, and he's not at all vindictive-- he allows Raynor and Matt Horner, his second, to rise to important positions within the Dominion; he also manages, post-game, to maintain peaceable relations with the Protoss, AND, if Starcraft: Evolution is to be taken as canon, even sends aid to Zagara and the remaining Zerg, on Char, when she send envoys begging for assistance, maintaining that the Zerg had abandoned their monstrous, destructive ways). A good example of Valerian's vastly different approach to his role as Emperor of the Dominion is what he does when he ascends to the throne, and finds out about the scientists that Arcturus had shanghai'ed into working on Dominion black-ops weapons research; he calls them up, actually *starts paying them*, in addition to removing the corrupt psychopaths that his father liked to put in charge of things. And of course, if the scientists want to go home? Valerian has no objection to that, either.
It bothers me that they lecture Raynor on Char, he has been there like, 3 times before? he knows plenty about it already I hear he has a little summer cottage by the magma sea
MaxMikescrool1 Oh man, that comment was last year. I barely remember what I was thinking back then, mmm... if memory serves... What bothers me is that not even Raynor himself acts like this wasn't his first rodeo, not even once he mentions something that he may have learned or even having been there before, (sure the whole story with the general is that he didnt think much of Raynor at first but comes to respect him later). But when general mentions his experience, its like a huge missed opportunity that neither Raynor or Valerian (who might be aware) mentions that he is the only one with actual experience fighting the Zerg on that very same planet.
I like how Warfield tries to show off his battle experience at Jim with his "5 separate invasions against the swarm" when it practically pales in comparison to everything that Jim had accomplished during the events of Starcraft 1
Jake Branthe from the fact that Warfield serving as general for years while Raynor end up as Mar Sara Marshal after shit ton of crime before actually join Son of Korhal... your choice
@@justnoob8141 by "shit ton of crime" do you mean Raynor's time as part of the Heaven's Devils where they fought against a corrupt confederate official? Also Jim was part of the campaigns that led to the Overmind's demise and joining forces with the protoss to go against Kerrigan. And you'd rather pick some general who led invasions against some zerg who weren't even cerebrates? Even Edmund Duke himself couldn't hold a candle to Jim. Heh, weird beta choice...

I feel like in this scene, Mengsk really feels that Kerrigan cannot be saved. Mengsk is probably my favorite villain in sci-fi, because he can be, and usually is an absolute snake that will deceive and backstab you the first chance he gets. . . but is also capable of being honest and leveling even with his sworn enemies. He is one of very VERY few villains in sci-fi that aren't their own worst enemy, because he is willing to set aside rivalries for his own survival, like when he worked with Raynor against the UED. In short, Mengsk was like "bro she ain't good for you."
Looking back, you'd think the Terran navy would've researched on specialized ships to deal with the mass waves of zerg aerial units. Like ships that are simply blocks bristling in point defense to spam the void with enough dakka to make an ork smile
Purely from a flavor standpoint, a ship like that would simply not fit a typical Terran arsenal. Remember, the Terrans are all about doing more with less, which means a lot of their designs would also have a secondary function (see: Siege tanks as the main battle tank but also as self propelled artillery or Medivacs as dropships and medical aid). But if you go back 4 in-universe years, the UED had Valkyries which perfectly fits this role. Liberators would be the evolution of Valkyries For designs that have very specific and specialized roles, you have to look at the Protoss, not Terrans
If you find the Tauren Outhouse on the third mission, and click it 4 times, it takes off. And whenever there is a space level, you can see the outhose rocketing past. I saw the outhouse rocket past during this cutscene, and it made me laugh so hard.
While he was arrogant in how he approached the invasion Valerian certainly planned for it well in getting Warfield at the head of half the dominion fleet, the Xel naga artifact, and brought raiders in for their experience in dealing with the Zerg, particularly Char.
I hate to say it but what you said is actually close to how they actually travel in space, the developers stated that mutalisks travel through space by releasing a special kind of gas to propel them in their chosen direction. And they flap their wings in space due to instinct, they don't need to.
Well, according to the Adjutant, Kerrigan has a class 12 psionic waveform and considering some of the things she can do she is extremely powerful psionicist, So she probably could psychically manipulate the transmission so she could do whatever the fuck she wanted with it, including sending her own response
@@shepherdlavellen3301 it was back then when, this event happened past brood war, in which all faction expect Kerrigan swarm are exhausted, this is 4 years after the end of brood war, kerrigan turned char into a stronghold
I think I read on the Starcraft wiki that zerg flyers utilize rudimentary psionic abilities to fly in addition to wings and gas bags. Explains why they can fly out of an atmosphere, but not why those mutalisks are still flapping their wings when they have no air for their wings to push.
@Hasbone if they were flying in close formation as bombers did in ww2, a collision is very likely to happen, they use those types of formations to increase their defences, isnce they will have more guns defending each ship
@minotar85 haha Kerrigan: "Rember that time I tottaly killed your Matriarch and nearly wiped out your entire race... yeah, good time...." Zeratul: "......"
Valerian in Wings of Liberty: Machiavellian schemer pulling all the strings and always in control (until he isn't) Valerian in every game since then: Twink who no one respects
@LtSurge659 A frontal assault can work, if you're smart enough to be fast about it and have more firepower than the enemy(the terrans had neither since they weren't the main fighting force["where are you, you took HALF the fleet"] and the ships were hanging around the planet for a while letting the zerg get ready along with those drop pods hitting ground pretty far apart both distance wise and time wise, meaning the main zerg force picked them off individually.)
Terrans: Attack Char, thinking that this time they are prepared and the last faction just wasnt smart enough to pull it off. Zerg: HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TEACH YOU THIS LESSON OLD MAN?!
When the drop pods were landing and the zerg were just killing them as they landed those marines screaming, at first I was like XD XD GET REKT BOOYYYY and than I replayed it and imagined being them ,,Ive got zerg commin out of my. cuts off...." ANY STATION ON THIS NET!?!? WE NEED FIRE SUPPORT!!! WE NEED FIRE SUPPORT!!! WE NEED IT NOW, AAAAUUUAAAWWAAAAAA..cuts off... welp that was an emotional rolercoaster I never wanna visit again, hoooo, I need a breather... By the way people saying ,, how do mutas fly there is no gravity and no air!" the devs said they fly by releasing green goo (revealed to be acid which they attack with). So the zerg... the zerg... mutalisks... fly in space...by...by... cringes... diarrhea... help, just, just,help.
@nickpopiiii The crew were surprised, most likely, and still trying to get the lasers up. The bullets you see would likely be automated point defenses.
@matthiasfsa Low orbit or space itself, Mutalisks costs gas, so they might use the gas to fly or something, just the same as Overlords with their gas-things in their bodies (left & right sides of the Overlord, that bubble-like things).
@Vuvuzelian Aiur however wasn't overrun until the Overmind itself was destroyed - the Conclave actually managed to still hold its ground prior to Tassadar's arrival and even believed they were winning the war. Killing the Overmind unfortunately set the Zerg wild.
@Kamfrenchie the main plot i agree, but the part with Emperor Mengsk and Valerian. They are loosely based off Juluis Caesar and his heir Octavian. The Tyrant who will be replaced by the heir who is a populist after he proves his legitimacy. The battle of Char was part of his Final war of the Roman Republic.
@goJesusandStarcraft Oh yeah, forgot to mention they should have also scrambled like 30 Wraith fighters per Battlecruiser, you can mass them up quicker and 'm pretty sure they work in space and they're pretty good vs mutas
Did you realize that there are no Asians (to be specific, Koreans) in SC/SC2? It's because they're actually the ones controlling Protoss & Zerg. That's why in all of SC cutscenes White Terrans are getting micropwned by Korean Protoss and Zerg units.
@hurisija I think he's probably referring to when she backstabbed the Dominion and Protoss after they'd teamed up to fight the UED. Well... either that, or he just suffers from a really severe case of protagonist-centred morality.
@zodiacsicario not really, i don't remember collisions occuring frequently in WW2, their formations were made so collisions wouldn't happen. Blizzard just didn't give a sit about coherence in SC2, you can see that in all the cutscenes
well it's not explained in the game, but, apparently, the Zerg can fly in space because they recieved some of the psionic energy from the Xel'Naga when they made them evolve faster.
@AdrenalineAndLove Galactic AOL dude....XD reminds me of the Futurama episode where they go online. The Professor: "Good new everyone, several years ago I logged on to AOL, and now were finally connected to the internet!"
wow...apparently, some green torpedos that take about 2 hits to kill a marine, can take out a battlecruiser. my goodness, how did they ever win this battle?
@nythreefer Ah, but that's the glory of chemical propellants: we *are* developing new ones all the time. And the main reason why we don't use caseless munition (even though it takes up dramatically less space in magazines) is because of 1) how jam-prone it is and 2) how difficult it makes reloading individual magazines. As such...casings aren't just for propellant, oddly enough. They safeguard against jamming, let us use reuse magazines, etc. It's not quite so unbelievable.
You know the thing that kinda dawned on me about this. Arcturus couldve recalled the fleet but allowed his son to take this gamble anyway. Why? Because from his POV, ethier he actually pulls it off and Kerrigan is no longer a threat or the plan fails spectacularly and Raynor dies on Char, removing a massive pain in his ass. Maybe even both! We all know Mengsk has no issue sacrificing his son to achieve his goal.
@rapidspit They managed to invade Char easily because of the Psi disruptor. Greatly disorganizing the majority of Zerg forces by the time the UED invaded.
@TheFivegoodemperors caesa was also a general in the army o rome, and gained power thanks to his glory acquired in his campaign aswel, and he ws a good ruler and a conqueror, ad he didn't spend trillions (god knows how) to chase a heroic alcoholic rebe that helped him to get the power. He also didn't sacrifice young women to his ennemy
@tzepesh20 yes i know but the atmosphere that high up in a low orbit is too thin to support winged flight. otherwise a ship like the space shuttle would have flapping wings instead of thrusters to maneuver.
Maybe the mutalisks have an air jet, like a squid, with an internal pocket of gas to propel themselves. Like a squadron of pointlessly flapping murder-bats sailing the stars on clouds of fart.
@LtSurge659 I have a feeling the zerg would've found out the false zerg, even if they didn't the swarm air uints quickly found the fleet, so the landing parties on both the dark and light would've been attacked and once they hit ground they were already under a bunch of shit. The only reason they survived was by taking out that air base or the underground base
@LtSurge659 usually you are right, the best strategy would be multiple invasions on a planet's surface, but the Terran's force is too small and would be overrun, that's hwy the stuck together, cuz that's what Terran's do!
@Kamfrenchie mmm maybe you r right about blizzard, but collisions did occur in ww2. specially when doing maneuvers to avoid fighters and flak screens, there are a lot of pictures of bombers with their wings riped of by other bombers, or by bombs from a bomber above him droped them without care.

@LtSurge659 The zerg's homeworld is Zerus...the overmind just liked some bbq so he moved there...
@nythreefer Ah, but that's the glory of chemical propellants: we *are* developing new ones all the time. And the main reason why we don't use caseless munition (even though it takes up dramatically less space in magazines) is because of 1) how jam-prone it is and 2) how difficult it makes reloading individual magazines.
As such...casings aren't just for propellant, oddly enough. They safeguard against jamming, let us use reuse magazines, etc. It's not quite so unbelievable.
@DrZoid99 There may be. They haven't announced anything.
@LtSurge659 i agree they should have used a Skeleton fleet to attract attention and then used an attack from behind.
WOW Bizzard should be making movies n games!
You know the thing that kinda dawned on me about this. Arcturus couldve recalled the fleet but allowed his son to take this gamble anyway. Why? Because from his POV, ethier he actually pulls it off and Kerrigan is no longer a threat or the plan fails spectacularly and Raynor dies on Char, removing a massive pain in his ass. Maybe even both! We all know Mengsk has no issue sacrificing his son to achieve his goal.
Valerian is beast esp in the books
@rapidspit They managed to invade Char easily because of the Psi disruptor. Greatly disorganizing the majority of Zerg forces by the time the UED invaded.
kinda pissed we didnt get to use the hyperion
@TheFivegoodemperors
caesa was also a general in the army o rome, and gained power thanks to his glory acquired in his campaign aswel, and he ws a good ruler and a conqueror, ad he didn't spend trillions (god knows how) to chase a heroic alcoholic rebe that helped him to get the power. He also didn't sacrifice young women to his ennemy
@tzepesh20 yes i know but the atmosphere that high up in a low orbit is too thin to support winged flight. otherwise a ship like the space shuttle would have flapping wings instead of thrusters to maneuver.
Clear the bridge! I've got a battle to win.
@freshaca3 she's psychic, i guess she can send her image to their cam. Or she found a soldier that wanted to film the death of the swarm with his cam.
I swear, the head of Arcturus looks like a ghost from some spiritual session.
Maybe the mutalisks have an air jet, like a squid, with an internal pocket of gas to propel themselves. Like a squadron of pointlessly flapping murder-bats sailing the stars on clouds of fart.
Jesus, even the prissy-capes are metal as fuck.
I always wondered, how can Kerrigan film herself and appear on their screens ?!
She has corrupted Terran Buildings and Units
Wow i took My time answering
@LtSurge659 I have a feeling the zerg would've found out the false zerg, even if they didn't the swarm air uints quickly found the fleet, so the landing parties on both the dark and light would've been attacked and once they hit ground they were already under a bunch of shit. The only reason they survived was by taking out that air base or the underground base
@Akatsukik13 well there was like hundreds of mutas vs a few battlecruisers
just think of it as ants vs beetles
@LtSurge659 usually you are right, the best strategy would be multiple invasions on a planet's surface, but the Terran's force is too small and would be overrun, that's hwy the stuck together, cuz that's what Terran's do!
@Kamfrenchie mmm maybe you r right about blizzard, but collisions did occur in ww2. specially when doing maneuvers to avoid fighters and flak screens, there are a lot of pictures of bombers with their wings riped of by other bombers, or by bombs from a bomber above him droped them without care.
@Shadyboy131 Since they captured so many from Valerian's invasion.
