If find bugs, balance issues, or want to make suggestions feel free to send a pm or post a comment.

IMPORTANT:
-The mod only works with Broodwar version 1.16.1 (you can get the patch in the official stacraft site)
-Playing with cheats (operation cwal, medieval man) make some upgrades and units to not work correctly (shields and energy upgrades won't increase regeneration. Incinerator Gauntlets, Improved Regeneration, Organic Carapace, Rapid Genesis and Electrostatic Discharge won't work at all)
