StarCraft: Insurrection is a supplement for StarCraft that was released on July 31, 1998. Although produced by Aztech New Media, Blizzard Entertainment authorized Insurrection as an expansion pack.[1]
The plot revolved around a little-known Confederate planet called Brontes IV, where a routine patrol fails to check in. It featured three new, full campaigns, which comprise roughly 30 campaign missions, and more than 100 new multiplayer maps. It took place during Episode I.
The expansion pack did not require StarCraft: Brood War, and the missions could be accessed in the same manner as any fan missions, via the Custom Game screen, and selecting the first mission of the desired campaign.

Back of Box DescriptionEdit
Brontes IV was a small planet missing from most Confederation nav. charts.
At least until all hell broke loose. Now The Swarm advances through a living nightmare of smoke and laser-fire. Protoss rain down from orbit, obliterating Zerg and Terran alike.
Amid the ruins of burnt-out cities, a Terran rebellion seethes under the inspiration of a madman.
Abandoned by the Confederacy, facing corruption from within, few will endure the planet's darkest hour. Yet, all that rabble needs to become an organized force, is a Leader...
Welcome to Brontes IV.

Marshal Bill Constantine asked "Sergeant", a vulture pilot and scout, to locate a patrol which had gone missing two days ago. He would be accompanied by a group of Brontes IV's colonial militia.
Sergeant was not happy with the mission. He believed that the Confederacy should deal with search-and-rescue missions, but Constantine pointed out how stretched the Confederates were by the presence of zerg in the Brontes system.
The mission was a disaster. Sergeant's team discovered an installation but was ambushed by mysterious rebels, forcing them to retreat.[2]

Sergeant reported back to Constantine, but had little information to give him.
Constantine finally received some assistance from the Confederacy; a group of ghosts known as the Shroud. They infiltrated the rebel installation. During the mission, they learned of Atticus Carpenter and his rebel movement, the Fist of Redemption, from an informer, and picked up a data disk. They discovered that the Fist was keeping zerg captives within the installation, along with some of the missing soldiers. The Shroud freed the soldiers and escorted them out of the installation.[3]

Constantine was unable to get any more help from the Confederates, and the Magistrate refused to aid him. He called upon retired officer Jack Frost to help him. He offered him the leadership of the Brontes IV Colonial Militia, saying a surprise attack led by Frost's tactical genius would inflict a heavy defeat on the rebels.
Frost wanted to refuse, until Constantine showed him the information on the data disk; it was a propaganda video by Carpenter, calling on the people to oppose the Confederacy with the aid of visitors from the sky – the zerg!
Frost's forces had to fight both the Fist of Redemption and zerg forces. During the battle, Frost's team discovered the remains of the missing patrol near the old installation. The Fist of Redemption was defeated.[4]

Constantine had received information on a transaction between the Atkinson Corporation and the Fist of Redemption. It would be completed at the Atkinson Airfield. Constantine tried to convince Frost to attack, in order to prevent the Fist from taking to the air, but Frost wasn't interested and left.
He called upon Tsuname (a goliath pilot) and Charlie Vane (a Wraith pilot) to investigate whether the corporation had turned rebel and attack the Fist. During the battle, Tsuname declared that his forces should "kill them all" without bothering to investigate. Vane protested but helped carry out the assault. The corporation and Fist forces were both crushed.[5]

Constantine was contacted by a representative of the Council of Inquiry, a governing body created by other worlds within the Brontes system. They were angry that he had allowed ships, possibly infested by the zerg, to travel to other worlds within the system. Constantine hadn't received enough reinforcements, but the Council wasn't interested. They took over the government of Brontes IV and fired Constantine.
The Council had good news. They had created a group, the Hammer Strike Force, from troops from other colonies. They wanted Frost to lead the group. Frost tried to refuse, but the Council representative warned him that refusing to serve could be considered treason.
The forces needed guidance from the Primary Brontes IV Orbital Relay Center, a space platform over Brontes IV, but it was occupied by the Fist of Redemption, who had learned of the coming force from a mining colony. The colonial forces, under Frost, Tsuname and Vane, reached the platform and defeated the Fist.[7]

The support troops reached Brontes IV safely. The Council wanted to put Frost in charge of the Hammer Strike Force. Its first act would be to take revenge on the mining colony which had sold out to the Fist. Unable to determine which one was responsible, the Council representative wanted the Hammer to destroy all the potentially treasonous colonies as a warning to any other potential traitors. Frost adamantly refused and stormed out. Tsuname was put in charge of the Hammer.
Tsuname and Vane destroyed the colonies. Vane could no longer wrestle with his conscience and defected from the Hammer.[8]

Frost met his old flame, Black Morgan there, in order to give her the information. She would evacuate the civilians in her dropship while he led the "New Dresdin Outlaws" against the local Hammer Forces. The operation was a success.[9]

Frost suggested a new operation; hijacking the Council of Inquiry's nuclear silos and destroying them. Then they could convince the Hammer to do its duty and protect the civilians. Black Morgan had doubts but agreed to ferry Frost around so he could hijack the nukes.
During the operation, Frost encountered hostages being held prisoner by the Council. With their help, he took over all the silos and destroyed the Council.[10]

Jack Frost took part in an operation to destroy zerg forces near New Dresdin. There he met Charlie Vane, who was happy to join forces with them.[11]

During the assault, they discovered the Hammer was working alongside the Fist of Redemption. Frost called for Tsuname's head. In addition, the NDO had to deal with zerg forces.
Frost's forces defeated their opponents, killing Tsuname in the process. In the aftermath, the survivors returned to New Dresdin to recover from the conflict.[12]

Syndrea recommended the destruction of the world from above, but one of her co-commanders, Demioch, viewed this as an extreme step.
Syndrea assigned her co-commanders their tasks. She would take the vanguard and establish a base, while Demioch would take forces to assault the central hive at Carvalho, Edullon would take her forces to New Dresdin and the archon Aedus/Xerxes would tackle Adbakken. Meanwhile Andraxxus would remain with the main fleet.
Edullon believed Demioch's assignment to be suicidal, but Demioch could not be swayed from his desire of accomplishing the mission.
Edullon's forces met up with Jack Frost, Charlie Vane and other members of the New Dresdin Outlaws. They struck an alliance to crush the zerg.[15]

Edullon's forces called upon Frost for backup, and took over an abandoned protoss base. Edullon could sense Demioch nearby.
The Fist of Redemption had multiple bases nearby, and within their base they held Demioch and other protoss prisoner. The allies crushed the Fist forces and rescued Demioch. Edullon vowed to tell Andraxxus of this betrayal.[16]

Edullon, Demioch, Frost, Black Morgan and Vane led their forces against Carpenter's Brood and the allied Bahumut Brood. Edullon was able to recruit protoss warriors who were disenchanted with Syndrea.[20]

The protoss/terran alliance was attacked by Syndrea's forces. In addition, the alliance had to deal with attacks by Carpenter's Brood. Fortunately, they had help in the form of the New Dresdin Elite Guard.
Aedus/Xerxes challenged Edullon to a duel as the battle came to a close. Edullon accepted, and defeated the archon.[21]

Syndrea's forces were defeated, but she had been captured by Edullon and the New Dresdin Outlaws, so the new brood crushed these forces as well. Syndrea prepared herself for death, but Nargil informed her that the Overmind wished her to be captured, rather than destroyed.[22]

Attacking her would force her to flee back to them. The new brood would use queens to infect her subtly, enabling the Swarm to see where she had gone but without letting her or her allies know about it. The new brood, accompanied by a War Zergling, succeeded at the assignment.[26]

The protoss attacks against the zerg enabled Jack Frost, Charlie Vane and Black Morgan to escape. They communicated in secret for fear of spies -- Frost only trusted the other two – but the zerg could see and hear everything Black Morgan did.
The trio met up with Andraxxus, who quickly discovered what had been done to Black Morgan. However, by this point, the zerg already knew where they were.
The new brood was ordered to attack them, and was accompanied by the special zergling known as Meat Eater. The alliance was finally crushed; Edullon, Demioch, Andraxxus, Vane, Frost and Black Morgan were all killed.[30]

Finally the Overmind declared an end to Carpenter's "experiment".
Carpenter's Brood was defended by an extraordinarily powerful ultralisk, known as the Blade Guardian, at least one Carpenter's Hand Maiden, and several Yggdrasills.
The new brood attacked, freeing several specialized zerg (Hunter Killers, Screamer zerglings and a Blade Guardian) from Carpenter's Brood. The assault concluded with the destruction of the cerebrate itself, finally putting an end to Carpenter.
With this final victory, the new cerebrate had completed its mission and secured Brontes IV for the zerg cause.[31]

Blizzard has not made a final decision on Insurrection but is leaning toward saying it is not canon.[32] |
