    Wait...I didn't think they were doing to have the reaver in SC2. I thought the colossus was going to be its replacement. So the reaver is returning?

    I am a Siege Tank supporter, although the Colossi are cool too.

    The colossus just looks to be a better weapon for fighting lightly armored units in battle.

    The Colossus definitely seems stronger, and it is like 10x more expensive.

    But I think the Siege Tank is more gangsta than the Colossus, so I prefer our Long-ranged friend :p

    Long ranged warfare makes the Siege Tank extra-gansta :p

    Colossus is a powerful tower of power, but not gangsta :p:p:p

    I think it looks like the Colossus is better against light armoured targets, sige tanks is better when you are going to destroy a building. Btw, can the colossus shot at targets just in front of it, or is it like the sige tank?

    To me it would all be subject on the situation, am I defending a base? Then I pick tanks, am I on a quick offensive? Then colossi, harassment tactics? Tanks in dropships and Colossus creeping up on an over cliff then creeping back...

    for the harassment, I think the colossus would work better. Its constant beam would destroy the entire group of packed drones/probes/SCV in a matter of seconds, whereas the siege tanks would take longer because they have a decent pause between firing, so it would take longer.

    Seeing as the tank is Terran and the collosus is Protoss the use of either would depend on what race I am playing at the time.
