If you replicate another race's worker and build with it, do you get a separate supply count for that race a la brood war?

If you do, I can't see how spending an extra 200/200 to have at the very least, workers that don't cost supply won't be awesome. 100 workers with a 200/200 army? Are you kidding me?

no you cant, they said it on panel that supply still counts as your original and 200 is allways max.

I want to see somone who dosent have observers, they replicate zergling and viper for detectoin in a hurry, will be fun.

EDIT: guess you can use the detectoin on your protoss fellow too maybe

has anyone discussed in depth the problem that, terran will simply never produce tanks vs protoss, ever?



Browder did in some interview, saying that that factor "Player 1 will avoid building a unit because Player 2 might Replicate it" as something they would work to prevent.

I think the best solution is to make the replicator T3

Why are you all talking about mass replicators or tank copying like is such an overpowered thing. Did you forget that replicator costs 200/200 which is more expensive then most of the units in the game. Protoss will have to skip other units to have replicators and you know 5 terran tanks > 3 protoss replicated tanks and overall XXX Unit >> Same XXX unit but more expensive...

Is it possible to replicate your own tempest ? This way you could get a discount after your first tempest !!

No massives. That means, no ultralisks, no colossi, no battlecruiser, no Thor, no archons...
There are limits to replication technology.

I can't imagine this unit ever really being worth it. Maybe in some very select scenarios, but it's just so expensive, you only get one unit from it at the end of the day. Is 200/200 really worth grabbing yourself a ghost or infestor etc? I don't know...
Oh no

Does anyone really want it to be a strong option to replicate the other races workers? I mean it would just be silly and I can't see myself ever doing that since I actually picked protoss to play protoss.

I think it could be used against zerg a couple of infestors for toss could shut down a swarming zerg army.

I think the best way to use them is to replicate units that need upgrades

Nothing wrong with that, most WoL games hardly see DT play or sky play (mass void ray) for that matter.
HotS changes hopefully mean more robo or SG play/BO. I was kind of sad to see Sky toss being nerfed to the ground.

I wonder... can you replicate using a replicated unit as a target?

For instance, a terran player makes some tanks, you replicate a tank. The terran player then stops making tanks and has none on the field. Can you still keep replicating tanks if you have one of the ones you replicated around?
