possible new terran unit??!?

Idk if anyone else noticed this but in the first video of the sensor tower( the one on top of the other), but.. what is that unit that it detected.... looks like some invisible unit that builds something in the other persons base??

any possible ideas on this?

i thought it made sense, someone used liftoff and floated 2 barracks into the base then immediately started making an add-on on them

 

yes but then why were they invisible?? otherwhise u could just c them? no need for the sensor tower

 

you units can't see it because its in the fog of war. The sensor tower is detecting enemy buildings that your army doesn't see.

 

ok well there were 4 things what were those other 2 things?

 

there could be a building that teleports other buildings

 

2 of them were the barracks that had landed, and the other two were the addons being built to attach to a barracks that had landed.

 

well i c what your saying, but it still kinda dosent make sense i mean the sensor tower can only c so far and if it could detect it you could probubly c it

and addons?

 

addons are those 2 smaller buildings that are an upgrade to the current structure, allowing new units to be produced, or more units to be produced at once. The sensor tower is meant to be placed on the boundaries of your base, and have a greater detection range that the siege tank has line of site. So the chances are, those building were being made outside the persons base to produce units for an attack, however, the towers long range could detect them and he moved his army in to attack then.

 

o well are these add ons something new in sc2 or has it been to long for me on sc1

 

sc did have a few addons for terrans including:

- control tower for the starport
-comsat and nuclear reactor for the command center
-machine shop for factory
-physics lab and covert ops for the science facility

 

well yeah i knew that im saying the barracks it did not have any addons in sc....

so mabey this isnt a post for a new unit mabey its a new addon lawl

 

That would be correct, so far 2 new addons have been added that can be used for both the barracks and factory, I don'r remember what they are called, but one allows for new units to be produced, and the other allows for 2 units to be produced at once.

 

ill take your word for it i dont completly remember

anyone else have any thoughts on this subject?

 

I found this on this site: http://www.starcraft2.com.au/buildings.html

you need to get 50 posts before the powerlvl increase/decrease option is available. You'll know when you get it because a blue up arrow and red down arrow will appear below everyone else's avatars.
