StarCraft II: Redux is a campaign modification project, our goal is to make the gameplay feel fresh and exciting while keeping it familiar to base game. The main features of this project are:
Redesigned Levels: Missions have been tweaked with new objectives that change per difficulty, and in some cases, brand new areas have been added in.
New Arsenal: All units have been modified, reworking their abilities and adding new options to their kit.
Reworked Mechanics: Plenty of game mechanics, such as the armory, laboratory, and mercenaries, have been completely revamped. In addition, brand new mechanics are added into the mix.
Emphasis on Strategy: Battles will be longer as units have higher durability and access to miscellaneous abilities, encouraging you to keep your units alive and make the best use out of them, instead of always attack-moving your way to victory.
Choices & Consequences: Your choices and actions in each mission may have short-term and long-term consequences that will influence how future levels play out. Will you become an admired hero, or a hated villain?
A New Difficulty: Is Brutal not hard enough for you? Take on Lightwing Mode, a new difficulty that turns up the heat even higher! More difficult objectives, smarter opponents, and increased use of higher-tier enemy units await you.
Multiple Profiles: Create and use up to 20 profiles, each of which tracks campaign progress separately.
Talk with your Crew: Kick back and relax between missions, gaining a chance to speak with your allies and forces.
There are plans to upload this project to the Arcade, where you will be able to play with up to 3 friends, but due to some technical difficulties, we haven't been able to upload this yet. Stay tuned!
Current Version
The current version contains the first three levels of Wings of Liberty, the Mar Sara prologue. We plan to release levels in bundles of 3-4 at a time. Feel free to give us your feedback!
At the moment, we've been unable to set up a project page here on Mapster. Once we get one up and running, all future download links will be put there.
Installation
Download all necessary files.
Place all 3 mod files (Redux, ReduxAssets, and ReduxMusic) in your StarCraft II/Mods/Redux/ folder. If this folder does not exist, create it.

Many thanks to Lightwing, Dudki, and ChiekChiek for their support, feedback, suggestions, and testing!
Credits for custom assets can be seen in the launcher map, by clicking on the "Credits" button.
Have to agree with Jayborino here. You are being very offensive, and presenting your feedback this way does not help the creator. Why not actually try to explain what made the mission so challenging and deliver some examples?
If I found a comment like this on one of my projects I'd just delete it and move on.
