    I voted the multiple lasers, nothing else looks cooler. Puts the Thors tiny cannons to shame really...

    I have a question regarding Battlecruisers, if anyone knows the answer I would like to know. Can you have different Battlecruisers with different special abilities, like some BCs with Plasma torpedo and some with yamato? Do you upgrade for each individual battlecruiser, or do you research just one ability from whatever building? Or do you research them both and then choose which one to use for each battlecruiser? In the terran video at the beginning when BCs were attacking some of them used yamato and others used torpedo. So I'm not sure which is true.

    I think it starts off as a plain old bc but it must go through some transformation after its built and im assuming you can choose either one to mix and match because they did in the terran demo. (yamato on the radar tower and plasmas for the rines)

    Hell yeah it is. :D They were cool in SC1, now they're just... ultra-cool. Another reason to play terran. ;)

    Absolutely. The new idea for two upgrades for the BattleCruiser is great.

    Wait a minute...so can you have a Yamato Cannon and a Plasma Torpedo Launcher on the same BattleCruiser, or do you need to decide which one you want for each one?

    I'm pretty sure you have to decide on one for each.

    They are separate upgrades of which a Battlecruiser can have one or the other. I think I'll just get Plasma Turrets as Viking's can decimate most aerial forces. So all in all I'm more in love with BC than I was before. ;D

    The new battlecruiser is just awsome i hope they give carriers a new trick and fix the mothership as well though. Also as sweet as the plasma torpedos look the yamato is still a nice siege ability.

    I know, I think I might be switching to Terran this time around...they are just sooooo cool; not to mention they are kinda implementing one of my ideas/hopes (visual changes marking upgrades)

    My original race in SC1 was Terran, I might keep them in SC2.We'll have to see the zerg, however i never really liked them and their fleshyness.

    Yep terran will be the new race.

    The Batllecruser(BC doesnt absorb its current awesomens anymore) is a true capitol ship now, its really something to look forward to. You can actually use it vs protoss and zerg now. And it looks so cool. I no longer care about carriers since we now have a real big ship.

    Yeah....They're actually capital ships now instead of just big slow hunks of metal and lazer.

    This has given more prestige to the great BC, which rivals both Viking and Ghost as my favorite Terran unit :)

    Also, with the Carrier's inclusion....the battle of the capital ships is still on! :p

    I wonder if due to the inclusion of this new awy weapon to the Battlecruisers arsenal the original Yamato gun´s power will be reduced, I hope not.

    It will lead only to confusion and looses on terran side...

    Imagine, the poor Terran commander sitting in a known pose holding a zergling skull...

    Yamato.... or Plazma..... :D

    And the tides of Lings flood the world......

    BCs were always good :) made 3-4 of them to keep as last line of defence :) when the dust settled only thing left were some defences and my litle babies ^^ and it was Judgment day :p
