Zerg Rush

Zerg Rush

You pick your way along the coastline, through piles of driftwood and broken planks left from decades of wrecked ships. You don't find any of the alchemist's gunpowder, but you do spot one of the indigenous frog-lobster guys, shuffling along the water's edge. Figuring on an easy kill to justify the time otherwise wasted on this flotsam-strewn beach, you start toward him with your weapon raised. He sees you, and shouts "Glurburbblurgurlurburgrblurb!" in alarm.

Then about fifteen million more of the slimy bastards run up out of the surf and beat the hell out of you. Jerks.

You lose 50%−100% hit points.

Occurs at Sonofa Beach.

• Zerg rush is a strategy in game StarCraft, in which a Zerg player (early in the game) creates a large amount of basic attack units in a short time, then attacks with all of them at the same time. Zerg rush is also a term in World of Warcraft, where in PvP matches an entire team rushes the opposing team's base in the same manner.
