The less sane fact that a group of Marines is a decent counter to an unprotected Battlecruiser due to its slow rate of fire, especially if they use stim packs.

* The Adjutant is basically a giant robotic grey smily face.
* Tassadar is represented by a protoss who has [[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS a giant "T"]] [[ChestInsignia on his chest]].
* Aldaris' portrait is inexplicably waving his hands in the air constantly.
* The Overmind's sprite features the same massive brain-like organ of the original Overmind, but with a scowling face and mouth. In fact, several Zerg buildings suddenly have faces on them, even if they didn't originally.
