Personally, I would like this new unit to be a support-support unit. It is a transformed Hellion (like with the Viking) that can with its "crane"/flamethrower (that thing on its top) attaches itself under a Raven and then constantly repair it and double the Ravens energy regeneration rate.

So you have like a uber Raven that can drop Hellions... One can dream, right?

That's what we need Helions that drive in our base, transform into this, getting +200 armor and just eat up everything, going to play terran from now on I guess.... Toss get a new air unit that will propably be as much help as Carriers are..

FUCK PLANETARY FORTRESSES CAN WALK NOW








but seriously, it'll be pretty uninspired if it's the hellion transformer. i can't imagine what possible reason there would be for it. "now the hellion can walk! and that's it!"

Seriously, it's just about the crappiest design I can think of. I hope there's more to it than that.

Also, dual wielding shields is just sad.

Mech isn't really all that viable in TvP because of the difference between the hellion and the vulture. The vulture could secure areas with spider mines - something that is immobile, which would stop zealots.
(This is my assumption, having not REALLY played broodwar, just UMS games, so correct me if i'm wrong.)
Hellions though, don't have enough DPS to actually do anything about zealots before they deal with tanks promptly... so it's better just to go bio. These, however, would be a unit that would get into position, then get out their heavy duty flamethrower and probably annihilate zealots if the position is good... therefore making the gameplay very positional and not stupid like it is right now with bio TvP


I really hope this is the case.

Looking at it after a week or two I cant see it being a transformer.
Cant imagine this think transforming intosomething (seems to be to little plating to make a vehicle out of it)
Also the wheels seem less wheel like then they used to be.

I really hope this is the case.

Also have in mind that sc2 tanks are really bad compared to BW tanks. It's a huge factor actually.

The top is not a gun it's a droid head. This new unit can plant mines and transform into a missile turret.
