    I don't mind if units are something like in other games.. I know Blizzard will give much different abilities and role for them on the battlefield.

    apparently the banshee is a planetary ship, meaning it can't fly in deep space, i wounder how is it going to work in space platform tiles.

    it's been confirmed that bashees are planetary ships, meaning they can't achieve escape velocity to fly into outer space. i wonder how they are going to work in space platform tiles...

    There is probably a light atmosphere on space platforms.

    I like the design anyway...
    But the rotor are useless in space, with no air... I'll change them for something more... "sofisticated"

    even on the site it says that the banshee needs to be trasported to other planits and has no space ability. and I bet that a space platform has air and gravity and probably even atmospher, because every thing needs to breath and no other unit looks changed on it.

    The only thing i have to complain about it is that they say they are making terran defencive but they're putting in all these base raiding units (Reapers, Banshee, viking) that make them the biggest haraser in the game so far with protos only haveing DT.

    well i like the banshee because it can take a hit, they work great in numbers, and they have cloak. (finally a tough terran unit that doesn't look like its just asking for it [haven't you ever wanted to just rip apart all clunky terran units by putting your hands inside their doofy metallic crevices and tearing them asunder? {like the marine/tank/viking]) Anyways, i think the unit really works for the Terran.
    But as much as i love the unit ... GYROCOPTER ... ahem.

    They can fly into outerspace when powered by blizzard to do so.

    Russian what?Why is the back ground so erm...greenish,field?
    First off,I liked the banshee's missile attack and whereas for the banshee itself I must say its C&C style...
    And logically it can't fly without air,in space that is...but sc isn't based on real world or real weapon so I guess Blizzard can do pretty much what they want with it...

    Only way that would happen if a goblin from warcraft 3 was flying it for a crash drive test.

    Banshee most likely will be balanced out like every other unit near massive patches =/

    venado, i said that because i was getting a point across that blizzard doesnt necessarily follow the laws of physics with their units. in SC1, mutalisks flew in space by using wings, which makes no sense, and guardians were flying crabs with no visible means of propulsion or way of staying airborne. therefore, i dont care that they are making banshees have the ability to fly in space, as it is still an amazing unit, regardless.

    It was a failed attempt at the Boeing-Sikorsky Comanche RAH-66 Stealth Helicopter.
    A Russian helicopter primarily used for recon or tactical missions.
    the Blizzard design sucks. I prefer CRAZYyoda's one on starcraft.org.


    drafter, please take your GEO lessons? Russia has a lot of green. and a lot of white. so what. it is a russian helicopter

    Russian? The Comanche is an American helicopter and both Boeing and Sikorsky are American companies. I don't know where you got Russian from.
    And it wasn't a failed attempt. It passed every test the only problem was that the Army decided to use the funding to renovate their existing helicopters and because UAVs can take on the role that the Comanche was going to have.
