Transformers feel very terran (their buildings move around and switch add-ons). Maybe a marauder replacement that can move fast in car form but can fight (and move slowly) in humanoid form? It's not a matter of numbers so much as overlap. What you describe is basically just a slightly more mobile Siege Tank. Units in StarCraft should be distinctive. Both Carriers and Reavers used the "produce stuff to do damage" mechanic, but they both did it in their own ways. Reavers created expendable shots, while Carriers created actual units. Even so, there are only so many ways to express a mechanic like "has multiple forms" without being redundant. You might be able to get away with three, but that's really pushing it.

Citation needed. I see where we know that it's a multiplayer unit, but I've seen nothing that says that it's definitely a Mech unit. | ||

So we know its a mechanical flamethrower transformer. So it is like the viking except 2 different ground attacks (flamethrowers for ground,and some sort of Goliath-esk rockets for AA.) I would say it will be a Factory unit 2-3 supply and maybe 150-175 minerals and 50-100 gas. CANT WAIT! EDIT: NOT TO MENTION 4 UNITS IN BARRACKS AND STARPORT ALREADY. | ||

I bet it has a concussive emp ability, basically slows all units in the emp radius. | ||

250-mm strike cannons should've been removed long time ago, now some kind of other weapon is in their place. i remember they tlked about some particle cannon as auxiliary weapon on THOR back in the alpha. i love THORs  | ||
