    There's already topics dedicated to this, you know :D I don't think this was a big enough update to warrant it's own topic.

    it's no problem. Actually, I think it's pretty awesome since I've never seen such a coincidence. I just checked the Battle.net forum and went to typing this, and, at the time, your topic was not there :D But, when I finished typing it, your's and mine were posted at about the exact same time. So, quite a coincidence :D

    How ofter are add-on's stolen in 1?

    In the first game, units still target them, they don't prioritize either or, they choose normally.

    Also, please don't quote the post directly above yours, there is no need.

    Edit: type more then you quote too please.

    I still don't like salvage giving back the full cost, and I would rather add-ons became fully neutral once detached in the sense that the previous owner can't salvage them nor will enemy units automatically attack them. Though even with all these things, stealing add-ons would just be a trophy sort of thing like the infested command centre is in SC1.

    Oh look, a mistake :D

    It is normally a rare event. However, with Reactors and Tech-Labs being universal, I think there will be some strong incentive to do so in SC2. A behind the lines Barracks with a Reactor will allow you to pump out infantry reinforcements close to the battle, and a Factory with a Tech-Lab will allow closer vehicle reinforcements.
    Yes.
    In the forums I've been it is rare for the one you are responding to to remain above yours, but I'll do my best. EDIT: See what I mean?
    There wasn't much left to say up there, but I'll try.

    I've never seen ANYONE stealing an add on... It's not like they cost like 42539503 mins and 1923849 gas... So, it takes more work to steal one than to actually build it.
    However wrote "MAIN IDEA OF.." is an idiot or a newbcake. Or maybe both :eek:
