Can you post a source for this? I tried out the unit tester and it was still the same, +3 vs light and +5 vs armored.

Wait guys, this isn't obvious enough. I have an idea, these "hellions" they aren't firebat enough, here let's make them BIO units.
I like the increase in splash on the widow mine.


I think it's because right now colossus makes bh useless since it can't tank for long enough without healing.

Huh, the similarities between the Firebat from the WoL alpha and the current Battle Hellion are striking now that they are now considered Biological.

afaik, the old alpha version of the Firebat was:
-beefy
-wide-ish aoe area
-good vs light armor
-biological, of course
-built from the Factory

now the Battle Hellion is:
-beefy
-wide aoe area
-good vs light armor
-biological
-built from the Factory



shhhhh. don't let anyone know they have the exact same stats.

I am kinda fearing that the hellions are becoming too versatile now, but let's see.

If they are biological does it mean they can be healed with medivac?

How about.....

a NEW research for the medivac that enables a second ability it to heal Mech? (Something inefficient like 1 energy/1.5 hp) instead of biological Hellions.

Good idea? Bad idea?

Okay, new idea. How about biological Battle Hellions so that they can be healed by Medivacs?

BH + Marauder + Medivac. That will make for some interesting Terran play since both units tank banelings well (BH's aren't Light, right?), and BHs scorch the living shit out of lings. Only issue is Mutas in ling/bling/muta play. The Terran would need to bring a couple Thors, or Marines, for the engagement.

EDIT: Infestors shit all over this. Marine + tank it is :D

Widow Mines must require Tech lab instead reactor, but lower buildtime to 15 seconds
