Okay, we had this question before, and the other thread somehow came up with \"no\" as an answer, which I\'m pretty sure is bullshit -

Can immortals hit air and ground or just ground?

Honestly, I think that if the successor to the dragoon can't hit air, it'd be pretty retarded.
Anyway, I think that on the sc2 page you can see the Immortal animation aiming his cannons up. Hopefully, that means they can hit air.

well, I think the stalker can hit air and it probably replaced the dragoon, not the immortal.

they hit JUST ground, I remember having a lot of them and not hitting air. I wanted to make sure and i read on the unit description, and it sed "can attack ground units" so im guesing thats about it.

edit: i also thought that the immortal came with its imba shields but actually you have to upgrade it from the new citadel type building.

Well in the videos you can see it takes some time for 4 BC and 4 Thorks to kill inmortals when they are getting focused. Dragoons would melt in no time.

That's great! It will make for some interesting micro and strategy. And for the people complaining, three words: Phoenix, Warp Ray, and Carriers (Ok maybe that's four words). This will make them more useful and affordable, not to mention that from what we've heard the Phoenix alone already pwns everything.

Thank you! So they can't hit air. I guess it would be pointless having two types of goons running around, right?

That's interesting. Although most things are subject to change and probably will, does anybody remember what the the Immortals cost resource-wise in the BlizzCon alpha build? They seem like a pretty heavy-duty unit, I wonder how hard on the economy macroing those baby's is gonna be. Overall I'm glad that Toss now have a ground-superiority fighter that can stand up to tank fire, it always seemed a bit odd to me that the Protoss had nothing among their ground forces sturdy enough to take a few tank hits and stay standing, probably cause I'm always getting whomped by T tank pushes.

175 min and 75 gas, basically they cost ~50% more than a basic goon/stalker.

^ Nice video and I love how the gateway opens up when the unit is done and the water looks nice.

Uh, stalkers are the successor to the dragoon. Immortals are further up the tech. They're pretty useless in the dragoon/stalker phase of the game anyways, since they're anti heavy artillery which don't come until later.

Yes. Stalker is only supposed to be useful into mid game, sort of like lurker

I was pretty suprised when I couldn't hit air with Immortals. Had to build 4 stalkers and blink them up to the guys base because we had no AA whatsoever. Just Collossus', Zealots, and Immortals.

the immortals are actually very gas heavy if u are planning to mass them. massing immortals is a very bad idea. i tried it before and they got owned. (without the shields)

its good to have a few for support cuz they OWN buildings

I have more questions:

1. What's the minimum damage requirement for the super shield to activate? Do they activate against cannons, for example?

2. How much dmg do Immortals do? More than stalkers, right?

3. Does the shield turn on for spells like yamato or storm?
