This is less a 'strategy' and more a compulsion that I never really thought about. Still.
Yeah, I was recording myself playing Myth for someone on Bungie.net (I didn't think while I was filming it that the little move markers would appear) and I watched it afterward and there's a whole lotta movement going down. There's about 5 clicks per second average, and the camera... well, when I watched it afterward I could hardly keep up with what was happening, I was moving the camera that much.

I guess Myth is some sort of semi-awareness. Becoming one with the game. :P

Another way to deselect all units is to hit the enter-key twice. First hit selects all units on the screen, second de-selects 'em.
Lots of Myth stuff at http://mythgraveyard.org.
Sometimes I put hard to find stuff in my my Udogs folder.
