Tim, > I wasn't just asking about Orcs vs Undead, but Orcs and Undead vs. everyone else, or really how all the races stack up against each other. As much as Blizzard releases patch after patch trying to correct various imbalances, the truth is that there will never be a perfect balance between the races. Some will do better vs. others, some dominate either the early or the late game, some work better on certain maps than others, etc. However, I prefer this over having races that are identical in everything except appearance. That's one reason why I didn't like Warcraft II. Both the Orcs and the Humans were like that until the middle of the game, where the divergence was just too artificial and extreme. Fortunately in Warcraft III, no one race is so much better over another that skill becomes irrelevant. Gone are the days when a brain-dead player can just mass one type of unit and send them into an opponent's base without thinking about it. I remember almost every single RTS game prior to WC3 suffering from that problem. Tenchusatsu
