Snow Making Machine

To make the snow machine you need: glass, block breakers, snow blocks, pumpkins, Redstone torches, automatic crafting tables, an energy condenser, pneumatic tubes, gold pipes, cobblestone pipes, iron pipes, wooden pipes, redstone engines, chests, and red alloy wire or red pneumatic tubes (the pneumatic tubes are glitchier). You start by making a strip of block breakers (I used 10 block breakers). Next you put glass around the block breakers two high. After that build snow golems inside the glass enclosure. Then dig under the glass and put down the pneumatic tubes and red alloy wire. Next put down the chests and the automatic crafting tables (make sure that the chest in next to the  automatic crafting tables) the chests were not included in the video. Finally put down the pipes and place the energy condenser. Hope you enjoy the video

how to mine minerals and get gas

Mining minerals and harvesting gas is the most important activity in starcraft; without minerals you can't do anything!  all buildings and units require minerals, for example the simple  SCV take 50 minerals, the medic takes 75 minerals and 50 gas, and the command center takes a whopping 400 minerals. First you box your SCVs (left click and drag over them) then you set them to work on mining. Next you build more SCVs and you check on your supply if you are close to the number next to it build a supply depot. Finally build a barracks and some marines. Once you feel like you have a big enough army move out (I only attack when I have 200/200 supply)

Mech With Protoss

To mech with Protoss you need the Robotics Bay. The majority of your army is composed of Immortals, Colossi, and a small force of Phoenixes, and Archons.

First build three Robotics Bays, two Stargates, and six Gateways/Warp gates. You want at least three bases preferably four. The only problems with this build are one, things like  Carriers, and Battlecruisers can do a lot of damage (that is what the phoenix and archons are for). And two, there isn't a lot of them when you max out your supply. You only have 30 units! If you had a gateway army you could max out at 120 units or more. If you are fighting Terran or Zerg then morph the high templar in to archons before you fight. If fighting Protoss use the templars feedback ability on them first and then morph them in to archons. Here is a replay of the game.

Starcraft 2 Tutorial (001)

Once you install Starcraft, go to options screen, turn on display build grid, show health bars, show hot keys and display timer. If you just got Starcraft you won't use these things, but it is useful in the future.

1. You make a box around your units (left click and drag). That makes a small green ring around each unit.The green ring means that you can tell them to do things.
2. You right click to tell them to move or attack.

My next post will be on mining minerals and getting gas.
