    The secound I saw the reapers and Viking one strategy came to mind. Quick and dirty raids aimed at destroying the CC, Nexus, or Hive of the enemy. Send in a combined force of Vikings and Reapers to infiltrate an enemy base and do alot of damage while a larger force approaches froma differant angle. Maybe even have a few dropships filled with tanks.

    Right now thinking about Terran Strategies for SC2 a few come to my mind.

    -M&M's
    -Reapers are going to be a good hit and run unit, with or without the mine (more fun with BOOM).
    They also right now have stim so have so medics outside the base/near by to heal and raid more.
    -Vikings (same strategy but with SCV's), god I love to harass people, it is so much fun
    -Vikings (fighter mode) with Banshees, reminds me of Guardys and Devs
    -Seige Tanks with Banshees, the idea of pushing the line in this manner seems kinda cool
    -Predator (so far I do not like the unit, 100M 100G 100HP 4 Dmg normal attack)
    But maybe you will be able to Ovie Hunt (just like corsairs, but time will tell)
    -Cobra right now deals 10 + 25 damage to armored units, great counter for Immortal(maybe)
    If so Terran Metal might still be alive. Also if Probes were considered armored
    than maybe after armory upgrade the cobra will do one shot kills on probes.
    -BC's or Thor with Starbase. It has been said prolly a million times, but seems kinda cool

    Once again SC2 is still developing so all these ideas can be killed/omitted/removed

    I think fast teching to banshees is gonna be a winner. I can definately see terran having air superiority, at least in early to mid game, as they have a tier 2 air unit, so air to air defense against the banshee shouldn't be a problem. And those same vikings that have been keeping the skies clear can then be use to drop down and take out some missile turrets to soften it up for the banshees.

    That, and the fact that vikings are gonna be real easy to make in large numbers with the nuclear reactor (switch after you upgrade air) are probably going to make terran air a viable strategy.

    Otherwise, I can see Reaper harrasment leading to Viking harrasment to buy time for thor to make an appearance. I think thor is going pose a serious threat to any base, especially as there aren't any ground units that have been released that can really go toe to toe with him, and his 250 mm cannon seems to be custom made for clearing a chokepoint of enemy defenses. Thor also is a good choice because all of your enemy's units must focus on it to take it down. Therefore, your other units are free to attack and stuff. And if their not attacking thor, then their gonna be in a world of hurt, as thor seems to have some impressive offensive capabilities.
