    HOLY SHIAT :eek: That time bomb can be deployed anywhere... the new planet cracker looks amazing, and cloaking of buildings is ridiculously cool ^_^
    Too bad I saw two in a screenshot... Why did they create thid discussion month then? Or doesn't the unit's presence at the official site mean they're final model/animation/abilities wise?

    Anyway, I love it.

    I think that it would be better if you could have only one mothership at the time.
    BTW The time bomb looks great. I didn't know it could be deployed everywhere. And the planet cracker looks great.
    Cloaking field is also great, but I personally liked the Black hole ability better.

    I sent you the flash so you can post it in here.

    The mothership should be a superunit again and the cloaking field should work on the move.

    Awesome unit now when do we the the MS pet?  Thor too

    No problem  :powerup: for beating me to the punch and posting first

    I sent the pictures in a table because the ones you have are cut off at the top and bottom.

    Also can someone find the URL for the Cloak flash please

    Who else misses when the Mothership's story was it was a flying city designed to replace the refugees from Aiur?

    Yeah really. It seems kinda wimpy compared to the WWI video. Remember that had a big planet cracker under the WHOLE thing and fired missiles when it was on.

    now it is a pussy beam that can't take out much of anything and it doesn't even fire missiles while it is on. It doesn't fire missiles when cloak is on either, that or hold fire was on

    Yea its power level has been lowered (no pun intended) but i really don't think its become another slightly more powerful version of the carrier its now more like a protoss guardian with powerful "spells" and is good against ground.

    Edit: Also i recommend getting this into the news section and the main page now as we might get more duplicate topics.

    Yeah. The new story obout them recalling the MS sounds alot like the stories behind the observer andSci Vessel in SC1. All were at the fringes of space only to be recalled in this time of crisis.

    I prefered the original story of the big powerful flying city designed to shelter and protect the refugees from Auir. The all powerful public works prokject even has a more powerful story than the warship from the golden age reclaaed because of what the first story represents

    Well the Mothership is now the new Arbiter. Timebomb is the new distruption web. Cloaking Field is channeld (the MS doesn´t shoot the Zealots) but now works on buildings. I liked the 1st Planetcracker animation better, this one somehow reminds me of the C&C Generals Ioncannon but I can live with it.

    They should allow Blackhole in the Editor the animation was great.

    looks great but I think they are nerfing it alittle too much i mean just because some sites like 1up reviews that it is overpowered they go beserk on it and now the time bomb and planet cracker are alittle lame imho

    I'm not going to lie to everyone I played Starcraft 2 at Blizzcon and the new planet cracker SUCKS hardcore.... its like 2 times better to just normally attack things...other then that the time bomb was way smaller then it used to be but its still really awesome and its so funny to see people send their marines through it and have them slowed down XD. the cloaking is REALLY useful but he MS can't do anything when its like that so its all good^^
