I can't seem to find out if that force field thing is still in. If it is do the HT still cast it? Do you have to upgrade it? What about that other ability that throws things in the air? What spells do the trilobytes have?

I think HT is storm+hallu.. The Nullifier (trilobytes) have the force field and something else I think.

Cyclone (throwing things in the air) got moved from the Nullifier to the Phoenix.

This might not be completely up to date but it's the last I've heard!

http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Nullifier#Game_Unit

Force Field
Acquisition Usage
Energy Energy 30[2]
Researched at Already researched[22] Duration
Creates an invincible "globe" over a small area that lasts 15 seconds that blocks the movement of ground units and melee attacks. Units caught under the shield when it is placed may escape. The colossus may step over the shield.[9]

Force Fields can create artificial choke points to channel enemies. This is particularly potent against melee attackers such as zerglings, since some might not be able to reach the protoss forces.[10] Force Fields can create walls, which stalkers can blink across, attacking enemies from relative safety.[10] The render of the Force Field has been redesigned to resemble Stasis field of the Arbiter.[13] While Anti-Gravity removes chokes, Force Field excels at creating them.[23]

that would be pretty awesome (imba?), assuming that phoenix ATA isn't like the valkyrie's and also that anti-grav'd units cannot attack in any capacity

like a ghetto protoss mutalisk

edit: hm, didn't catch the "unpowered for 12 seconds" memo. what the fuck?

Perhaps you should see a doctor about that.

Somehow I can't imagine mutalisks that have to cast a spell on anything they want to attack being all that useful. But what do I know, it all depends on how it's balanced.

Could you imagine that forcefield in BW? It would cause Dragoons heads to explode in one giant pathing error.

Looking forwards towards seeing a force field surround though.

If they do have cyclone/anti grav in the game that is truly gay. That is one of the ugliest spells in wc3, totally obstructs clarity. Imo it should just be stasis field, much easier.

PS- does anyone else not like the idea of robots casting and being able to produce psi spells ? I mean wtf do the high templar train for if this robot can be programmed to do stuff?

There was a guy in the arby who channeled his psi through the machine to cast spells right?

Are we supposed to believe that there is some overseer judicator guy who is controlling these robots and able to channel his psi from great distance into them?

The SC2 spell is distinct from WC3 cyclone, though. Can be cast on buildings, lets units pass under the unit it's cast on, and units it's cast on can be attacked by air(this is major.) You can't just replace the effect with stasis like you would be able to do with a copy of WC3 cyclone.

Besides, cyclone is only such a visual barrier because of the massive wind effect that's a huge pain to see through, as long as they make sure the effect for anti-grav is simpler and doesn't obstruct stuff behind it it'll be fine.

on a related note, I like the old art from the HT better, but the new art from the nulli is better for clarities sake. Gameplay>Graphics.

imo they are a little too psychedelic. Could be toned down a little bit, a lot of pew pew going on I think.

Can ranged units inside the force field shoot at enemies outside the force field?

lol read and look, this is not the mothership ability. This creates a temporary wall/block that units cannot pass. I assume you cannot cast it on top of units and must be casted before they get to the target land.

Actually from what I remember reading, it can be casted on units. Whatever happens to be under it will automatically move out of the way, kinda like a castable worker drill.

nope, how I remember it is that it is castable over units. Whether or not units can stay within this forcefield I'm not sure.. I think units can stay under it if they want
