    Hello guys,

    Ok I think we all already know that Protoss can teleport units with help from the warp prism but wait... Im a bit confused:

    for example to teleport my protoss army, how do I do it?
    - Do I need to have a warp gate, then create a unit then choose where to teleport it, which would imply that I can only teleport units that I have created from the warp gate?
    - or do I just make them enter the warp gate then select the warp gate to teleport it to the warp prism?
    - or do I just need to have units in a psyonic matrix/field, then select the warp prism and teleport them to my warp prism? (implying no need for warp gate???)

    I know its complicated but I cant figure it out :s even from the wikipedia http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Gateway

    Any ideas?

    You have them enter the Warp Prism, and you can warp them anywhere you have the psi matrix (ie pylons)

    Simply put, Warp Prism is a shuttle, and shuttles transport existing units. Warp-In lets you build gateway units anywhere in your own Pylon power circle, you gotta pay for them on the spot.

    You select a warp gate, click on the unit you want to purchase and click anywhere within the psionic matrix to build the unit on the spot there in 5(?) seconds. While being warped in, the unit acts like a protoss structure under construction, gaining hit points over time and vulnerable to attack.

    Units such as DTs can be seen during the warp-in but once they are warped in turn cloaked. Plus there is a cool down after you warp-in units form a warp gate, to help balance it. It's not very long, last I heard it's only supposed to be approximately the same length of time as to warp a unit in.

    Wait a second, what's the warp prism? Did they change the phase prism to the warp prism now? What are the functions of it if so.

    Warp Prism is only the new name for the Phase Prism, that's all.
