unofficial add-on packs ... I think I saw them at a local computer shop about two-three years ago ... and I think Blizzard sued them or somethin ...

Basically, these two add-ons are just some custom maps that were created and then packaged, as far as I remember...



Posted by: Bishop

Insurection and Retribution are two Starcraft expansions, one made by Wizard works, and the other made by some company I forgot.

both unoffical and SP oriented, but insurection comes with 102 multiplayer maps



Posted by: Bishop

I don't think they were sued, but they were totally unoffical.

they didn't do too well, but they were pretty good.

played the first three maps of insurection at a relative's friend's neighbor's (brother's cousin's uncle's dog's mother's friend's) house, but could never find the cash to buy them when I saw them.

Oh.

Hmmm, that's weird ... I read a couple of years ago that they were in a legal case against Blizzard because the add-on creators broke the EULA for the StarCraft Map Editor (which was not to create any maps using the map editor for the purpose of selling it). I dunno, I think Blizz had a case there ... and I think it's not the first time Wizardworks got into a rift with Blizzard - they were also the ones who marketed that add-on for Diablo 1 which was essentially a boxed trainer with ungodly weapons and armor



Posted by: Bishop

right, they had a case going but I don't think anything came out of it other than wizardworks starting productions on REAL games, and not bastardized add-ons (although I've yet to see one of their games that hasn't sucked, yet most of their add-on's were decent).
