Reactors do offers an strategic choice, They have bonuses and drawbacks. If you go for reactors you will get behind upgrades and limit your production of advanced units. For example, going two factories one with reactor and other with tech lab vs two factories with tech lab: Reactors offer a way to fast spend resources but for basic units, and to quickly build a defence against Air units (marines, goliath, valk) but limits your army composition. An army of mostly marines can be easily countered (banelings, storms) without enough support from other units (firebats, medics) Personally i mostly use reactors to complement builds, If I play bio, i go factory or Starport reactor to complement anti air. |

UI : need to constantly refuel the queue's. Its lots soften with few structures. Also reactors give you too quick too much unit under control. army of Marines can be produce early, and I'm not convinced about this easily countering Marines. I win few vsAI games with solely reactor marine rush (mostly vs ZERG !). In mid game Marines have no problem with taking down any aircraft (BC*, wright, scout, mutalisk). With normal range attack they are decent at concentrate fire at destroying single mechanical units and razing base defenses. They swarm nature make them 100% expendable. Add-ons can be swap. i use TechLab only for tanks. *its shame that group of few marines can take down BCruiser. |

AI has no potential to adapt to counter strategies, so mass marines will eventually kill the AI. |

early game, Marine spam gives too big leverage for terran. Sadly, third option - "no add-on" is not viable. IMO it should be. Even simply by eco/time reasons, but its not the case now. |
