Course Description:
UC Berkeley students with an interest in real-time strategy games and the competitive gaming landscape are encouraged to participate in this class.

This course will go in-depth in the theory of how war is conducted within the confines of the game Starcraft. There will be lecture on various aspects of the game, from the viewpoint of pure theory to the more computational aspects of how exactly battles are conducted. Calculus and Differential Equations are highly recommended for full understanding of the course. Furthermore, the class will take the theoretical into the practical world by analyzing games and replays to reinforce decision-making skills and advanced Starcraft theory.

Class will start with lecture and usually include a special discussion topic having to do with the day’s lecture to inspire new and original thought. At the end of lecture, there may be time to analyze student-submitted replays to illustrate a point or to improve analysis. Homework will be assigned at the end of each class and is due at the beginning of each lecture.

Course Learning Objectives and Goals:
What may look like complex topics are just ways we want you to think more deeply about the game to derive a greater satisfaction from playing. Furthermore, this understanding should have applications in real life, to further synthesize new information from limited inferences. The primary goal is for students to learn, enjoy the art of competitive StarCraft, and have fun. Overall, students will be applying critical thinking, quick decision-making, and game theory skills throughout the sessions. Students will also learn what to look for in a replay or game to learn most effectively.

课程对各种单位和战略微操等都有理解性的介绍和研究。我猜想应该会有不少计算来最优化一些战术的流程。最后的期末project是研究出新的星际争霸游戏理论或者战术，为星际群体做出贡献。
最后一周还有全班的比赛。
这是继台湾某大学开设A片课程之后，诸位宅男的另一梦想成真的一刻……都可以拿到学分的哟

我可以预见几年后有山口山的课程开设，可能会讲不少管理和经济学的东西。

这个星际课程居然推荐学生事先拿微积分和微分方程的课
