Ghosts of Tarsonis Community Event

[image loading]

The fight for the Koprulu Sector wages on as the Sons of Korhal continue their struggle to wrest control of the sector from the Confederacy of Man.

How the war ends is up to YOU.

Ghosts of Tarsonis is a persistent-world metagame in which individual 1v1 StarCraft 2 matches influence an ongoing battle of conquest between two rival factions.

Strategically coordinate attacks to conquer planets; play SC2 matches for a greater cause; celebrate victories with a community of squad mates.

Anyone with a North American StarCraft 2 account, regardless of league placement, can play in the Ghosts of Tarsonis campaign. Initially planned to be an internal clan event, we've decided to open it up to members of the SC2 community at large so that we may all share in what will be a fun, competitive, team-oriented experience.

Achievements can be earned throughout the event, a crew of casters will live stream our most exciting match-ups, and we'll keep this thread updated on a weekly basis with battlefield reports.

The campaign begins January 20th and is expected to run for roughly 10 weeks. Players may join the campaign at any time.

For full details, visit taw.net/sc2

We hope to see you on the battlefield!

Watch Ghosts of Tarsonis live-streamed on Fridays at 10:30pm EDT.

Lore Overview



What if Arcturus Mengsk, leader of the Sons of Korhal, had been assassinated before the fateful day he employed Psi Emitters to summon the Zerg to Tarsonis, effectively crushing the Confederacy? What if his second-in-command, Lieutenant Sarah Kerrigan, had never been abandoned on the planet, to be captured by Zerg and transformed into the Queen of Blades?

This is the premise around which Ghosts of Tarsonis revolves.

This is really cool. I don't play anymore, so I can't contribute, but I love the idea behind it :D

Wow, sounds like a great idea, I'll probably join.

EDIT: The only downside is the small map pool, though. It would be a lot more interesting if there were multiple maps per planet, and perhaps if the map played depended on the route of attack.

This looks awesome, Any chance we can get this over on EU as well? As it appears to be US server only?

This is actually a genius idea. Imagine if something like this were applied to Blizzard ladder. It'd have to be done carefully, but it would really give people an incentive to practice and play.

Well that's an interesting concept.
I don't think that planet layout is balanced though.
Edit: It should be the exact same for both teams.
