Description:
An actual hard version of the Starcraft and Starcraft Broodwar campaigns by pochoman123. Unlike previous "insane" campaigns that lazily changed the AI script to insane, pochoman did a good job actually making the maps a decent challenge without having the AI throw 100 units at you 1 minute in.

He added scripted attack waves that can do decent damage if you don't prepare for it. He also made the bases better for macroing and added adequate resources (maybe a bit too much) on most maps. There are also more defenses for the AI so that you can't just a move with a 200/200 army and win. Most AI bases will also spawn additional units when you destroy the main hatchery/cc/nexus.

To compensate, most maps will allow you to make a hero version of the unit (often for 2-4x the base cost of the unit).

I highly recommend this campaign for those that find the original campaign too easy.

Commentary:
The only Protoss vs Protoss campaign mission. I find the mirror campaign missions to be the tougher side, so glad there is only one. Be prepared for enemies to have huge waves of hero air units being sent at you. Fortunately, you get 2 nearby bases you can capture early, and you will likely float a lot of minerals so build a large defense with cannons. Make sure to build some shield batteries to quickly regenerate health on your heroes. Unlike the original the enemies will have access to DTs so make sure to create a few observers as well.

You also have to destroy Aldaris in all three locations, so you cannot cheese rush the "real" Aldaris.
