New Starcraft 2 Terran ‘Unit’ is a Gestalt :]
Those of you who’ve seen the Starcraft 2 unit previews already know the transformer units. There’s of course the classic Siege Tank and the new Viking.
Blizzard, thought of ramping up the robot quotient in the upcoming game, since the Thor–that walking monster gunship, apparently is not enough.
Enter the Terra-tron. It, basically, is your whole Terran base merging to form a giant robot. The back story? Well…
With the use of magnetic flux generators and through some simple modifications to our existing building schematics, we’ve found we can utilize structures that already exist in our bases to assemble the frame of a siege-class combat walker—a construct that some of my colleagues insist on calling the Terra-tron. The Terra-tron
is best deployed as a last-ditch effort to hold an important location on the grid.
Sounds like a lot of fun. You gotta see AND hear this monstrosity here.
Still with us? Done with your nerdgasm? Note that this unit is announced April 1.
