    I was thinking more like one of those Playskool things with spinning discs and rolling wheels clear balls filled with little beads and stuff....

    Introducing...the Terran NOMAD

    voted for science vessel not because of the looks of the nomad but there's no point when the Nomad can heal air units while the SCV can do that anyway plus i thought that the Science Vessel were more unique

    When it comes to look.. i certainly choose science vessel rather than nomad...

    But when it comes too functionality.. i choose nomad b'cos it can heal air units and that only makes sense because how can scv's can heal air units when they are on the ground.... ;)

    SCV can heal air units while they are on ground in SC and not only that in WC3 workers can heal mechanical air units but yes it does not make sense... a ground unit healing a air unit?? they would need a floating hammer etc. ;D

    Nomad is ugly as hell, they should remake it just like siege tank :)

    As for nano-repair, maybe SCV cannt repairs airborn targets ?

    NOoooooooo!!! But I can explain how SCVs repair flying targets, maybe they fly up or something? Really though, they shouldn't waste gas like that.. Just land your stupid wraith (How? They have a third wing protruding from it's bottom.) and come down here damit! Lol.. trying to repair a wraith while it is moving hehe. I always wondered why the ships never just got R2 repairer.. thingy.. They should have that instead of SCVs repairing. You research upgrade that makes your R2 repair durring battle and it uses minerals. That would be neat.

    OMG Playskool...

    They should make the avatar of the unit a Toddler walking with one.... Then it can say in a deep, dark voice "Point me toward my Momma."

    I voted Science vessel purely based on design. I do really like the Nomad's ability to "heal" mechanical units though. I think bring SCVs into the midst of battle to repair is just silly and impractical. And plus, the Nomad is a flyer so it can fix pretty much anything anywhere and it's pretty instant. I'm all for it.

    I voted for Science vessel because I thought, besides for the detector, Irradiate is its most useful ability, and its coolest, and come on, these are people we're dealing with, they need biological warfare!!!

    There should be an option for neither. The Nomad desperately needs a redesign but I don't really like the look of the old science vessel either.

    Personally, I like the Science Vessel. The Nomad looks like a Covenant Dropship from Halo and doesn't really fit in with Starcraft. I like the Vessel's circular shape. I've also heard news about an EMP that doesn't come from a missile but is despersed from the ship and is an AOE kind of thing. The Vessel would be perfect for that. I also enjoy his voice.

    If you really want to know what it looks like, check Nikzad's playskool link. The resemblance is uncanny.
