    What videos or screenshots did you source those from?

    The first looks like two Mutalisks, kinda. Oh wait, it shows the selection in the interface hahaha. Nice find.

    the interface shows the group guardian image. so it could be the swarm guardian.

    i got it from b-net. ^^

    no vids... only these 2 rare pics. but lets wait, maybe an update of the actual gameplay video with the swarm guardian will be leak soon.

    i think the guardian still looks the same but more longer now like a centipede. check out the first pic (2 guardian) you can see the head and the tail.

    and someone who actually seen it in action(blizzforums) said that the swarm guardian moves up and down(zig zag?) when moving or gliding.

    i like the 3 ultralisk attacking the shadow ops building. ^^

    The Swarm Guardian looks pretty sexy, now it actually looks like it came from a Mutalisk.

    It's blurry, but it's definitely a unit we haven't seen yet. As Z11 pointed out, the wireframe suggests it is the new Swarm Guardian. Sweet.

    If you look closely Psi, you can see how the "Nomad" casts a shadow just below it. Compare that to the distance between the BC and its shadow, and you'll come to the conclusion that it is a land based unit.

    Kinda funny, seeing as you have complained about the shadows in SC2 before... :D

    Wonder what it is...

    I do not see a shadow... just the darker grass. And that has no relation to this at all as I say the shadows of air units are offset and misplaced.

    You don't see what I see? I outlined the shadows to make it clearer.

    If that is a shadow then that doesn't make it a ground unit since the rest is cut off by the interface. It would make sense for it to be a Nomad as it obviously isn't Zerg or Protoss. It could be a capturable doodad which is highly doubtfull.
    It resembles a craft of some sort to me anyway, see the cockpit and other stuff which is on air craft?
    Or maybe its a Medivac?
    Or blue transformig Viking?
    A transforming tank?

    I don't know even if it is the shadow of the BC, it is good for me, just check the shadow the higher terrain makes. Both shadows point at the same directions, I don't really know what is the problem with that :)

    Or you want the shadow to be more far away from the BC? That would result much larger shadows on the map, like I said, for example a higher grounds shadow would cover a huge place, which looks almost like the fog of war... That would mess up the game..

    Clarify what you mean.

    Does my logic not make any sense? There is clearly a shadow beneath the unknown unit, and there is nothing else to cast it. The shadow is too close to it for it to be an aerial unit, just compare it to the BCs shadow.

    Yea its probably a shadow but you said its a ground unit since the 'shadow' is closer to the object and the BC's shadow is far away like most air units, but the fact the 'shadow' is cut off the screen we cannot really make that kinda definite judgement.

    No comments on the fact it looks like an air craft?

    Lol @ hunter, this isn't the creep thread its the new found Swarm Guardian and unkown thing thread.
