Is that a Tauren Marine as a unit portrait? Blizzard loves cross-univeral camoes don't they?

"On the galactic fringe the xel'naga returned to Aiur, one of their engineered worlds. They discovered there a race of tribal hunters with a psionically-enhanced communal society. When coupled with excellent physical attributes the xel'naga recognized the natives as superior candidates for the purity of form and, impatient with the slow pace of their evolution, began uplifting them,[1] using devices such as a giant crystal beneath Aiur.[3] They even used devices such as the Kassia crystal to enhance their rate of reproduction.[9] The natives were the first experiments to progress beyond a feral stage. In recognition of this the xel'naga named their new scions protoss, meaning first born."

I guess it would kind of make sense if they resemble one another.

Ho hum. Notice how the mothership can now create a huge warp field? Guess we'll be seeing more warpgate play, that is, if motherships are worth getting now.

Oh, and is it just me, or does the very last portrait in the second block look somewhat like Edmund Duke?

There is a NE banshee pilot and a Tauren Marine.

Notice the pictures right next to them, there is an undead marine (could be something else like a reaper tho) and an Arthas SCV. See his long blond hair going onto his shoulders? and the blue tinge is a dead giveaway.

I am so frustrated they made a patch (with it "released" content) and do not let us play.


SC:BW does get boring now that I have SC II in mind. God damn.

Ahhh I was gonna post this! I blame MW2 for being late! XP

Definitely a lot of interesting looking portraits. Some look like Xel'naga. Some just look fucking awesome! I wonder if there will be descriptions while in game...

...I also wonder what's "behind" the numbers... xP

The one next to that reminds me of Tassadar.
