Hi?

This might be a slightly weird topic but I have always wanted to find out what the units in Starcraft are saying/what it means etc.

1. Terran dropship: "In the pipe, five by five". What does this mean?
2. Terran Valkyrie: "Diavoid" (or some such), and "dont give me gratings", which I suspect to be "greetings" but not sure. What is she really saying?
2. Terran marine, upon firing: "SAAAH, that's the stuff". Did they really say "Saaah"? If yes, is it supposed to be a real word/do Americans actually say this in real life?

" "Five by five" by extension has come to mean "I understand you perfectly" in situations other than radio communication, the way Loud and Clear entered slang, post-World War II. A further shortened form is "five by"." - Wikpedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_by_five)

This is actually just an easter egg from Alien, which shares a lot of similarities with Starcraft.

In the Pipe usually means "in the clear" or "safe".

As for the SAHHHH part, if you're talking about StimPacks, I believe it's a sigh of relief

As for the Valkyrie, she speaks in mixed German/English, so I'm not exactly sure what you heard, but you can surf through this (http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/StarCraft_unit_quotations#Valkyrie)and check

I've been fucking waiting for SC2, and I've intentionally ignored the stories and hype. I want to be surprised, good or bad, because the first one was amazing fantastic shit, and as long as I hold how, i can make the second be amazing fantastic shit too.

But its supposed to be awesome. So fuck off and who cares

Yeah I thought that was pretty neat.

Shame she got bit by an alien though, she was my favourite. Then Vasquez. Then that ugly Ripley bitch. And Newt should've been eaten.

thanks so much..

Although I went the entire Valkyrie section I still couldn't find "Diavoid", and I am POSITIVE she said this....

She says "jawohl".
