  1. 14:47 I will because the UK doesn't use Metric, stones are an Imperial unit
    Or a Truck unit.
    And 16:40 may be the same trick Grant used for Salvation in No Production, the game time runs for a short interval while the targeting UI pops up so it may have been enough to cast storm if it was queued. Grant just got it frame perfect

  2. So Grant, just a quick question, couldn't you have said, brothers in arms, and hey maybe for probes to have that kinda thing they could have one where they get a small ranged blaster in a similar vein to the Terran Marine with maybe half of the rate of fire with the same damage and it can't be upped or maybe it can't hit air.

  3. If this gets made into a main channel video, I suspect you may have to add a bit early on explaining fractional hit points. Otherwise you just know some commenters are gonna call foul whenever they see a yellow life bar.

  4. The Imperial system is a force base unit system where force (aka lbs) are a base unit and mass (aka slugs, stone, grain, etc…, m = F/a) are derived from form. The SI system is the opposite, mass (aka grams, kilograms) are the base unit and force (newtons) are derived from mass ( F=ma ). So if you are using Imperial, like the US, then you are using stone as a unit of measurement.

  6. I used to wonder what friendship could be, then Grant shared this challenge with me.
    Only Shields.
    Tons of Fun!
    A lack of hit points.
    Tactics must be strong!
    Sharing allies.
    It can't be beat!
    And a ton of Stalkers makes it all complete!

  7. You could also just activate barrier at the beginning of an encounter to preserve your shields, since it's effectively your health – meaning you don't have to wait for their 'health' to regenerate.

    Edit: It's what I get for commenting too early, but that would be my general strategy, just barrier at the start every time instead of trying to catch the timing.

    The U.S uses the imperial system because of the British, so they definitely can't complain. Not our fault they decided to change.

  8. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is basically Starcraft anyway.
    The entire premise is that 3 races in conflict with each other make peace to fight a common enemy. And there's a 4th god-like race and an overarching storyline is about a female character ascending to become one. And there's an insectoid swarm led by a Queen. And there are magic crystal weapons. And there are badass hillbillies. And there are surprisingly right-wing undertones. And there's John De Lancie playing his "chaos god"/"master manipulator" archetype. And everyone becomes friends in the end, apart from the really evil guys, who die.
    This is only partially a joke. The general themes of the story are actually pretty similar. MLP:FiM is arguably more like "family-friendly Game of Thrones" though.

  9. I am honestly a touch upset that grant went for the bonus medivacs to help valerian, rather than using the 50 seconds to push uphill and take out some enemy production. Would have shortened the mission by a few minutes.
