I think this'll probably come from the factory and replace the hellion. Functionally, its "fast mode" will basically be the hellion, but cooler looking. And then you'll be able to switch it into this mode for extra damage or something.

This. Heart of the SWARM and the first real tidbit about a new unit we see is a Terran unit (I'm assuming not campaign specific but I could be wrong)?

I was really hoping for some zerg love in the new expansion, but I guess I just get to lose all hope in Blizzard. Where is the love!?

A normal unit version of Egon Stetmann imo, which was basically medic in campaign.

The wheels on the feet really do look like the hellion's front wheels, while the shoulders look like the rear wheels.

So..

So maybe medic with the 2 shield thing

But it has a flamethrower on its head.

And wheels on its feet.

Unless its a healing beam that for some reason looks like a flamethrower. Or our perspective is wrong and instead of the top thing pointing forward its pointing back?

Actually the shoulders also look like wheels.

OMG its another transforming thing. But why would you want something to have wheels then have feet? WTF transformer?

i'm betting it's just a campaign mode unit that works just like the viking, except it's some kind of hellion that turns into infantry. it has two shields and a hellion thing on it's head. why are people thinking it's a medic? just cause of the shield? it has two!

Stetmann was what I thought when I first saw it. It really looks like a medic with Combat Shields to me. If so, they better be getting rid of Medivacs (in exchange for a non-healing dropship obv)

-it deals additional damage to destructible rocks
-it can be salvaged after it is built for 101% of its original cost
-it can stim ¯\(º o)/¯
-it casts a fungal-psistorm because terran needed buff vP and vZ
-it shoots two (pre patch 1.4) blue flame shots

WHAT THE F*CK DAVID KIM

more seriously: why are they adding a new unit? it looks like a squished goliath. like you actually took a pic of the sc1 goliath in photoshop and compressed it.

definitely has a mech feel to it
