    Colossus are pretty good by themselves anyways, they almost don't need a Phase Prism because they can just walk over mostly anything. Only time you really need them is for water/space/etc

    Sonic: Driving without a driver? Now you're really in for it.

    Sonic: You know? I sure have fun.

    I would lawlz if the Ultralisk can retract its head spikes and act as foot cups for the Overlord's appendages.

    Mostly because the Thor is a massive class unit. Tanks and goliaths aren't massive class. It's easy to imagine the Dropship having vehicle bays. However a the Thor itself is larger than the Dropship.

    1 Tank sprite wise is as big as a Dropship, and 2 would never fit visually.

    That's not the point. it's not about in-game scale. It's about in game lore. I can imagine 4 goliaths and 2 tanks fit in a dropship. A Thor in the lore IS larger than the dropship. I always imagine dropships to have vehicle bays for the longest time. Are you telling me Dropships have no vehicle bays?

    I like this idea.

    The Campagin has Hercules dropships, big enough to carry three Thors. Is this a unit you can use or just for you to destroy?

    No I agree they do and it works for out of game, but I think there should be no "different" animation for transporting the Thor just because "it's big". Giving away what your Dropship is carrying.

    But it will be beneficial when your scout locates a dropship with a Thor in it. It allows you to know which Dropship is the best target.

    yes but shouldn't you have to scout the tech? by having them approach you with the dropships you will know whats coming, it almost feels like they're are making you give out more information that you have to imo.
