	As I have said before, this has the potential to be a good, probably dark fic (for the girls' own safety they had better not think Kerrigan is another fiancee) which screams for someone of Biles' caliber to actually _write_ it.  Before we get to that point, though, there are some points I wish to (re)iterate.
	First: we have to make clear where in the Starcraft ['SC' hereafter] timeline we are drawing things from - is this classic SC or are the events in the Brood War expansion going to play a factor?  Why is this important?  For one thing, we wouldn't want to piss off a Dark Archon, now would we?  Imagine what its Feedback ability could to to Ranma or Ryoga... and I won't even go into their mind-control powers.  Second: psi and chi are two entirely different things; quite aside from that, it is to be noted that the Protoss' energy shields were designed to stand up to stuff a lot more powerful than anything the Nerima bunch can produce (once again, whoever thought that a Mouko Takashiba could put a Probe out of commission is, in my personal opinion, using a cheap copout).
	And leave us not forget that the Zerg combat breeds have reaction times as fast as, if not faster than, those of Ranma and co.  In other words, this is no cakewalk: they might be able to repulse a _small_ Zerg force, but it's going to cost them.  They'd better hope they never encoutner a Defiler, either.
One other thing: any ability possessed by the Nerima crew that entails pulling objects from nowhere would be negated in the presence of an Arbiter.  I don't need to elaborate on that, now do I?
	With that out of the way, I believe we can proceed directly to the conceptualizations.
