    Yeah, it would look sweet, but you would get mad the seventh time the enemys faster troops just laughingly moves away. So, to prevent that, the bullet would still have to be quite fast.

    u mean like the thor shooting the cannons straight up at the sky and them landing on the enemy? yea i think that would be cool too, except i dont really mind it the way it is now. it still looks bad ass.

    give them missiles. the explosions of the thor attack right now is kinda weak. blizz should do something about the thors artillery strike and make it look more threatening and badazz.

    I agree. A unit that seemingly epic deserves a bit more punch with its power weapon. Yeah, it can still be slow, but powerful (like, you know, the Thor :p).

    my idea is to give the thors attack a massive explosion and shock waves like that of the nuke. lol

    yes shock wave effects would be nice for the thors artillery attacks.

    how powerful do you want the attack lol, 1 artillery strike already destroys a whole planetary fortress in about 5 seconds, so the damage must be around 2000.

    the artillery strike seems very powerful imo. there are like 10 small nuke-looking explosions popping up, and that's what it's meant to be. The normal attack is also looking very powerful. Each time it attacks the enemy gets a huge cloud of explosion on it.

    If anyone has played Dawn of War the Space Marines orbital bombardment ability I think the Thor artilerlly should look alot like that.

    What I find awy about the Thor is the ability is has to decimate a Planetary Fortress in just about 5 seconds, man, this means that the thor can basically 1-Hit-Kill any building and/or cluster of buildings.

    hmm seems imba but maybe they glorified it a bit in the demo.

    I mean c'mon it's not like whenever you do the Thor bombardment, you get this in-game cinematic seeing the Thor do it's stuff on the Planetary Fortress and destroying it in one hit. So I don't think it's a one hit kill. Otherwise you can just make a crapload of Thors and just bombard each building and destroying a whole base in 10 seconds. I'm thinking it does a nuke like damage (400 dmg) but in a lot more smaller radius and also a hell of a long cooldown rate. yaaa not 2000 haha ^_^

    Well this may sound stupid, but damn! i hope blizzard is reading this~ XD

    After the thor is built, make an option so that other units for example the battlecruiser could be fused (combine) with the thor, this will not be same with archons cause u'll need the scv to do so, (it will also cause resources) after combining them, the thor gets the units weapon, ability and also some increase in hitpoints, this may sound like the avatar in cnc3 but the purpose of doin so is because terrans are suppose tobe adaptive, maybe blizzard could use this idea to introduce a new mechanic into this game~

    Just my 2cents, feel free to give ur comments~
    btw plz be kind its my first post :)
