    I think its a howitzer like turret for ground only attacks. That's what I'm thinking since as oppose to the missle turrets with air-only attack, this gun emplacement is a gronud only turret.

    Wow, these units for the new SupCom expansion look great, but what does this have to do with StarCraft?
    (No, I don't like the direction the Terrans are going.)

    what did you expect from the terrans?
    all scifi games have almost identical units for humans

    I wouldn't surprised if they cost as much as (or even more than) a mothership (and take up a ton of supply points) to offset that you can build more tha one. Or maybe it costs resources each time it fires. TBH I think the Thor is way more intimidating than the mothership. Anyone who sees one or more of them coming is going to need a change of pants ^_^

    Yeah like the super weapons in C&C games. I wonder if these will replace missile turrets as detectors?

    banshee, cobra, vikings, battlecruise. does anyone think there r too many air units for terran? (and they have to have science vessel, flying caster type?)
    phoenix, warp ray, tempest, mother ship, star relic. maybe not... but, that's a lot of air units than before.
    also, when i read about thor, i thought it was like 10scvs merge together like that in transformers...

    Some things of the Terran now remind me of C&C

    The new Terran units look baller. Now one can only wonder what Blizzard has in store for the Zerg. When the game is finished and completely balanced, it is looking like Starcraft 2 is going to be every bit as awesome as the original!

    Heh I didn't think about that. Mothership? Oh just build a ghost and get lockdown. You will be fine. But I think the building addons rock. Which route will you go? So awesome. lol.

    I think that the Mothership will be immune to Lockdown, honestly.

    We need more actual facts to really determine that. But Blizzard probably already has that part figured out. After all, they're the ones that came up with SCV directly building a unit.

    Someone made a comment about the Sensor dome only being a detector... that's not true. It's a detector, but it reveals enemy units in the fog of war on your minimap in a certain radius. The counter to that is that it is revealed to your opponents on the mini-map so that they can try to avoid being caught.
