** Justified for the Protoss, who warp in their structures and units already constructed from somewhere else.
** Justified for the Terrans; all their buildings are prefabricated, and Starcraft II's better animations show that the SCV is operating an assembly armature that is included in the building kit, rather than welding the whole thing together by hand.
* [[Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale]]: When the Terrans first arrived to the Koprulu sector, they only numbered approximately 32,000. According to Blizzard's website, there are at least twelve ''billion'' Terrans in the Koprulu sector at the beginning of ''Starcraft II'', and Raynor mentions Kerrigan killing eight billion people during the first game. He might have been including the Protoss but that still means you're looking at more than twelve billion humans living in the sector. [https://web.archive.org/web/20120602233139/http://sclegacy.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6756 As mentioned here,] to have this many people after only 240 years would require the population to at ''least'' double every decade, for 24 decades, not taking into account the deaths that occur from any number of natural and unnatural causes, because the Terrans have a history of civil wars.
* [[Sequel Hook]]: Dark Origin. Which is notable due to the level being a unlockable secret. Unless you finished the previous mission within a certain amount of time, the player would never learn about the plot.
* [[Shoot the Shaggy Dog Story]]: By the end of ''Brood War'', {{spoiler|the Confederacy was replaced by the equally rotten Terran Dominion, which was then devastated by the UED and the Kerrigan. The Zerg invaded Auir, were stopped, but killed virtually the whole population first. The Protoss evacuated to Shakuras, but were still devastated and lost their leaders. The UED conquered the sector, but were defeated and wiped out by Kerrigan. The Zerg created a second Overmind (virtually undoing Tassadar's sacrifice), which was then killed. In the end, Kerrigan is the ruler of the sector, and the heroes have been defeated in virtually every way}}.
