EPTBy putting the ability on the Archon it makes it a much deeper ability to obtain, and also prevents it from being in 'all' games. It becomes something you decide to go for rather than a staple unit. It also allows the ability too be designed to be more powerful, because of the massively increased cost and tech to achieve it.

Just click on the ground and it will heal all shields in that area. The only AoE heal in WC3 I can think of are the healing wards (unless you want to count heal scrolls). | ||

The whole game is going to be just like WC3 but in space. | ||

Defensive Drone on Nigh... Raven sounds nice, but I did like the original Targeting Drone much more - it was implemented in beta version published in Paris BWWI year ago and it really felt good for Terran. New model for Brood Lord looks nice, so classic, but now new name does not fit to this unit anymore in my humble opinion. Plasma Surge sounds not really Protossish to me +with their high hp units and ability to support air units this way... I think they will need to make it expensive (100 mana for one use) and not autocastable x shield per y mana Medic kind of healing accessible any time. Cheers, Raven www.terran.pl | ||

By this he means the sequel will be more StarCraft, more focused on fast-paced gameplay and lesser amounts of micromanagement, rather than an evolution of the WarCraft 3 formula. | ||
