    If James Raynor possesses a battlecruiser, which one does he have ? This with the Yamato cannon, or this with the Plasma Torpedo ? And Mengsk's Norad 3 ? (or was that ship destroyed by the Zerg in Brood War ?)

    Does the battlecruiser exist without those weapons ? If yes, how does it seem like ?

    We don't know that yet. I think it'll get Yamato canon.

    If you look at it. The plasma rays hit the ground in one area, then in the spaces they didnt shoot at. So you see the marines being pwned, but the ones that didnt get hit yet are still firing. Then after the second barrage the rest of the ones get fryed. And yeah,the wriggling animation is just the marines pretty much on fire. I also think the Hyperion will get the Yamato, since Jim's battlecruiser isnt that up to date is it?

    In the Yamato cannon video, we can see two stalkers warping in, that means that not only the gateway has the warp-in ability.

    ok so it virtually makes the protoss capable of mass teleporting units anywhere in the battlefield as long as there are pylons around, i think its a bit too much to give the protoss this advantage, yes the protoss are supposed to have powerful units, but should have at least some disadvantage when deploying them on far away areas

    It's a 1 unit per one gateway and the the cooldown period.

    The hyperion probably has A Yamato still since it is a Behemouth. Of course it is manned by mercenaries; some alterations have most certainly been made and some non-standard equipment has been installed

    In-game, at least, they'll probably have a unique ability specially for the Hyperion.

    they could also make some totally unique changes to the hyperion to make it use both the Yamato and Plasma arrays

    Well as I said this is a ship manned by mercs so it SHOULD have some interesting customizations

    BTW... Did anyone noticed how hard the stalkers die? Having the Yamato gun practically makes the BC pretty weak without energy... From my point of view you definitely need combined armies (Think about it like this...2 Yamato's+ 2Plasma's)... Nice balancing by blizzard...

    I also noticed that they don't slide down ramps when they die.
