    I think the terrain looks a lot nice and a lot more interesting than either starcraft or warcraft 3 ever did.
    And it looks like the tempests can in fact attack air.
    And I also think the dark green barracks looks nicer, and the rest of the terran stuff looks nicer in green. Supply depots and siege tank siege gun still look bad though.

    I really like how the game is looking and like the different color schemes. It will make telling which units belong to who easy and I really liked the golden/orange-y color of the zealots psi-blades.

    I really hope for an '08 release.

    I'm in favor of the team color thing. Zealots with red blade? OMGAwesome.
    I'm also adoring the Muta's new look.
    I just realized the Soul Hunter attacks air, I dunno if y'all knew that already, but I do now.

    I can't stand the Twilight Archon's look. They ripped the Infernal graphic and slimmed it down.
    As always, the Siege Tank looks crappy.

    I thought the twilight archons looked huge and quite badass in comparison with the units around it. Hopefully its as strong as the archon was in SC1

    I think its cool that you can mix and match dark templar and high templar. Just shows how the protoss are adapting like the terrans and accepting the dark templar. Hope they have more mix & match with the two. Maybe a invisible reaver :) The new archons look dark/high templarish. *NOTE* Those new spires for the protoss seem to always come in pairs... Maybe they have REALLY REALLY REALLY strong force fields and can generate a wall between them. *usefull for defending multiple entrances to a base.

    I think the archons are on a diet ^_^

    yea i love the red psi blades... it makes me want to be protoss more

    yea i still agree the siege tanks are ick but i think they will work on it cause there's been so much criticism... just like the marine's shield... and in fact they did take out the symbol from the shield.

    I think the new *legs* on the siege tanks (or supports) look fine. Its just the gun that looks extremely stupid. Also id like to see more of siege tanks without siege mode. I'm sure they will fix every unit. They are just using these basic (lol) models to test the game.

    hey,,, I saw red pylons in there... they´re red because of team colors or anything like that???

    High Templars lookin´ good... they seem more mature, like older and powerful HT´s

    ARchons are huge,,, I think that we´re seeing just some beta pictures,,, The final result must be more impressive... I hope so.

    The red pylons were a huge hit with me. They almost looked... evil... or something. A decidedly different look than the standard all-good Protoss blue.

    Does anyone notice the rumored "Barrack-addon" that's in a screenshot in starcraft2.com is actually Machine Shop (the Factory-addon). I just noticed that the Machine Shop in the screenshot in starcraft2.com was actually disconnected/detached. D**n Blizzard tricked us into thinking that is the Barrack's addon.

    To me the "artificial raised land'' in the first screen shot looks like there are 2 levels. The lower level is the one where the collosus is standing on, and it appears that a collosus can simply step onto a cliff like that, instead of having to go up a slope. The upper level is where the marines are standing on, I think they get up there from some slope that's out of the screenshot.

    The 3rd screenshot, Archons bigger than Reavers? Suppose they both take up the same supply in starcraft 2, their size should be more consistent. But I suppose they made the Archon taller cos it can attack air.

    And the tempest is the same size as a mutalisk! That's a HUGE reduction in size from carriers in starcraft 1. Considering that in starcraft 1, 2 mutalisks were able to fly inside a carrier and attack from the inside, the tempest has really shrunk.
