This is not a masquerading issue, this is an issue with whatever free
starcraft game server you're using. If you're using fsgs, then hack
the source so that it's more intelligent when passing out its IP. If
you're using that binary-only windows server, then email the author
and see if you can get him to tag on an -IP command line or something
(however, if I were him, I certainly wouldn't do this).
Your only other option would be to write an ip_masq_starcraft_server
module which scanned packets for IP's that should be masqueraded.
