Wow. That first one is exactly how I would imagig the Protoss Carriers. The second picture gives me more a swarm feeling.

Good call. The Nephilim from Wing Commander: Prophecy were definitely swarm-like

I just have a problem with the size of it. It doesn't really scream "capital ship" to me, and at first I mistook it for some fighter jet or something similar. It doesn't look like it could "carry" anything, while in SC1 if you saw a carrier, you KNEW it was something to be feared and respected.

This is clearly the Dark Templar equivalent of the Carrier and instead of Interceptors, it fires off Corsairs. They only target air but on every run, they cast Dweb on the ground units as well. Imbaaaaaa.
There is but one truth.

I wouldn't go carrier against a Terran. Vikings are cheap air units that can be double produced at the starport and they do bonus damage to armored targets. Basically Terran viking will snipe Carriers. It might be something else though.

It`s too early to say, but I don`t think they will be use frequently in PvP. Thanks to the Stalker Blink, Carriers have to be more careful in choosing which ridges to abuse. If they have nearby land where Stalkers can blink over, the Carriers will not be able to get away. Overall, it seems like Carrier usage will become even more map dependant.

NO don't you see the current model suits the Carrier. They suck.

To be honest buff Carriers and make them the fat model.

Carrier looks so bland.. They could make it much better.. but it doesnt matter as you dont see them in games anyways..

Also I liked older sentry better.. http://www.starfeeder.com/assets/blog/images/2008/mar/protoss_nulifier.jpg

I think the Gna's model is much sexier then Blizzards model.

But, i still think it's way off. It should look more round and bulky with two tentacle looking things under it.

The new carrier is way too detailed (i love details but this is just...), a bulkier, less edgy one would be much better. Also, the interceptors is so wierd - they are hard to spot in-game.

Blizzard's model doesn't look like a "carrier". More like some kind of fast moving assault cruiser class

the other one looks like it carries stuff though, looks good yo
