Blizzard did some of the work for us.
There is a marine zergling hydralisk and zealot and probably more hidden inside war3retail. mpq. I wouldn't be shocked to see blizzy releasing a map with marines in it.

Create a small textfile with this:

(listfile)

then use it and load the mpq. Extract this file and you got the list for that given mpq.

The SC units aren't actually in the editor. Those were fake screenshots from the ending credits.

Well I'm not so sure now. I'm "ComaSutra" in the battle.net war room, and I've stumbled across this link:

http://www.sclegacy.com/sections.php...icle&artid=133


Now, unless they covered EVERY angle, attack AND the unit portraits it appears as though they actually are in the game. I posted a link to the pic you guys had on the front page on battle.net and a bunch of people told me it wasn't in the game...I don't really know now. I don't have the retail version, so I can't really check. I trust SClegacy though, that is a very respectable site.

the units are IN the game, they are just hidden. And yes, you can use them in maps.

Sweet! Thanks for the clarification. Do you have to pull them from the spreadsheets and activate them, or is there an easy solution?

Nobody said anything about zealots. :P That would have been pretty damn cool too though!

Yeah my bad I ran though some file in the mpq that looked like zealot to me but then again it was early in the morning :) when I posted it. Hehe Well I have done lot of research on the hidden units and the non-graphiced ancestral guardian.
