	The Warp Ray got added to Blizzard's site. Great stuff. quote The reunification of the Aiur protoss and the dark templar has been a time of great trials for both peoples. Overcoming the centuries of fear and mistrust that built up after the exile of the dark templar is no easy task. Nonetheless, the melding of technologies that developed along separate paths for so long has heralded spectacular new developments for the protoss. One such creation is the warp ray, a new capital vessel that many believe will eventually replace the venerable protoss carrier as flagship of the protoss fleet. A warp ray is a ship virtually built around a single gigantic power source: the prismatic core. This device seethes with energy drawn from two realms: the Void, which is truly understood only by the dark templar, and the psionic matrix, which underpins the technologies of the Aiur protoss. In combination these two energies form a self-sustaining reaction of terrifying potential. Warp rays assault a terran barracks Normally the prismatic core is held in check by an arrangement of flux field projectors. When a warp ray locks on to a target, the projector arms smoothly part like the petals of a flower. A complex array of warp lenses and phase-crystals works to focus the energies of the prismatic core into a ravening beam of destruction. Sounds like it is the replacement for the Corsair. -------------------

Does this mean that the Carrier is gone? But then, what about the Tempest? ------------------- Currently searching the internet to find a better avatar to replace my crappy one...

	The Carrier is in fact gone. The Tempest is a replacement, but there's a chance it will not serve the same purpose as the old Carrier which served as a capital ship. I look at the Warp Ray as a replacement for the Corsair. Both are created by Dark Templar technology though the Warp Ray combines the best of both sides of the Protoss technology. -------------------

	quote AznLiquid Warp Ray thats the one that has the three beams right? they look pretty cool, but what's going to counteract that? i mean starcraft has been noted for its balanced gameplay, but the warp ray and the colossus have to have some kind of weakness?

The Colossus cannot attack air and can get surrounded very easily. -------------------

	Because they have to reunite with the rest of the Protoss to fight their powerful enemies. The Dark Templar will always be ready to fight for their kind. -------------------

	quote ForkandSpoon true but what i was hinting at was a colossus warp ray combo, think about it. I was replying to the post directly above mine, talking about the DTs.. Since both the Colossus and Warp Ray fire a straight laser beam they will be very easily surrounded. It will be a deadly combo against other heavy units but not light units. Judging by their power they will probably be pretty expensive and can be taken down by mass light units easily. -------------------

	Seeing as how the Protoss have all these gigantic new units, I want to see how the new units for the Zergs are like, I'm certain one or two of the new Zerg units will certainly take down both the combo of the Colossus and Warp Ray combo. Since in SC, just the Hydras(like the whole food capacity) were able to take down Carriers and Battle Cruisers. Although, that's only if the person didn't know how to use the Carriers and Battle Cruisers. ------------------- [Digital Portfolio][Fanart][Art Thread][Left 4 Dead]

	Yeah, even though I dont play Zerg anymore, I would like to see how even they come out. Wondering what it would be like attacking a base like that with allot of units. I cant wait to see what more the unvail for the Terran's. Wierd dream last night, saw the entire Protoss unit/building page full, both units and building were all the way across. I need to get my mind off Starcraft... ------------------- http://askthefurryone.com/main/ For all your FPS gaming needs, visit ATFO and sign up TODAY!

	The Terran and Protoss are shaping up quite well so far. I know some people who tried out the game at Blizzcon and they were all satisfied by the new game. The units were very responsive, the new units were amazing but some complained that the newbie-friendly interface would eliminate the need of pro gaming-level practice. -------------------

	I would be a bit disappointed if they did that, simplify the interface. I hope they fix it up, I might not be to good, but I wana get better, and not have the interface help me. ------------------- http://askthefurryone.com/main/ For all your FPS gaming needs, visit ATFO and sign up TODAY!
