I wouldn't mind if these units are displayed as visible cargo, if every race has at least one, it would be a great feature without overdoing it.

That's a pretty interesting idea, but how would it work exactly?

If you click on an enemy structure, and it is in visual range of a detector unit you own, the transport/bunker contents will be visible as if you were the owner. Should work ComSat too I guess..

How about a general transport is loaded visual cue? I mean the Bunker already has a visual cue when it is loaded..

Yeah I could see that working out I would take that over the showing Massive units =P

But really that would be a good idea, I hope they try something like that out, although wouldn't it be kinda hard to select dropships if they were stacked?

You know that could be a powerful Changeling mechanic, infiltration and intelligence gathering :P

I guess you should be given the option to be able to group select enemy units too. Is there any harm to that?

yeah but even if you do that for your own units it doesn't show the units in multiple ie dropships.

As far as I know, Colossus isnt massive, but they maybe changed that.
Also in Sonkie vs Yellow, Yellow transported as far as I know 2 Colossus, but there was slots for 2 more, that means 4 Colossus per Warp Prism which should be Fixed.

A Marauder takes up 2 spaces in a dropship, why would a colossus take up an equal amount?

And it is massive, I don't remember it ever not being massive.

Has anyone gotten a not outdated confirmation of how much space the Thor takes up?
