Space Force doctrine mostly plagiarized from StarCraft video game

THE PENTAGON — Much of planned Space Force doctrine has been copied directly from the popular space-themed video game StarCraft, according to multiple sources.

"Supply depot, refinery, barracks, refinery..." said Army Maj. Steven Song, "I know a StarCraft build order when I see one, and sadly, this one wasn't even that good."

Steven isn't a Space Force officer, but investigating DoD officials had approached him to review a USSF field manual, due mostly to his Korean-American heritage and genetic affinity toward anything StarCraft. While Steven rejects the stereotype that Koreans have an abnormal obsession with the video game in question, he admits that StarCraft happens to be his 'jam,' and that he spotted obvious game references before learning why he was asked to lend assistance.
