"Futuristic Ipod" What the heck does that mean? That thing is predates the ipod by 60 years at least.

Ahaha, and they say Americans don't have a sense of irony, either.

You actually can, but it has no effect on the story. It's just so you can play the mission without playing Wings of Liberty all over again. You can even replay missions (I think for the achievements, but maybe not the special researches).

So, even though you can go back and play it, the first one you pick will have the affect on the storyline, while the other doesn't. Thanks.

I want this game so bad now...

Clearly, it can hold 10^256 times as many songs as the Ipod.
But since there's really no way you'd listen to all of the songs you can store on your regular Ipod...

But hey, a lot of the upgrades are new to me. Thanks for the article!

Can't help but wonder though... what other campaign-exclusive units will be available? Wraiths, Medics, Diamondbacks, Vultures, Goliaths, Firebats...

Guncutters, maybe?

[Shadow Archon]

The Spectre will be in it.

I think that for the Zerg Campagin, they'll have some special Infested Terran units, like the Centaur.

I hope they give the Protoss the Super Carrier.

Let your imagination run wild

Of course you can bet they'll heavily tweak the menu anyway. But speculation can be fun.

Also wondering what they'll change the Lab room into. Stealing technology would certainly fit with the Terrans.

Can't wait to see what they can do...
Perma-cloaking is a given, of course...

I'm hoping for an Infested Battlecruiser.

I hope they give the Protoss the Super Carrier.

Is that current canon, or just hinted at?

Yes, its canon. The Gantrithor was suppose to be a Super Carrier and Artanis used one to purify Braxis in Resurection.

LAWL!
The supercarriers were the ships that the convicts sent from Earth were sent in.
They crashed or landed, and formed the terran confederacy, KMC, and Umoja.

Both have super carriers.

The super carrier is a variant of the protoss carrier. Super carriers carried heavier armament beyond their interceptor complement and were able to single-handedly engage a squadron of terran battlecruisers

The Gantrithor was the flagship of Tassadar's Expeditionary Force. It led the Expeditionary Force throughout the early months of the Great War,[2] taking part in the destruction of Chau Sara,[3] Mar Sara[4] and Antiga Prime[5] in order to halt the zerg infestation of the Koprulu Sector. These actions were not repeated at Tarsonis however, Tassadar sparing the world from purification and relying on more conventional means to battle the zerg.[6]

In the aftermath of the ordeal the Conclave bid Tassadar return to Aiur. However, Tassadar refused, called to the world of Char by an unknown entity.[7] To this end, Tassadar took the Gantrithor by itself to the world[8] though was not there alone, encountering Raynor's Raiders' ships and a small Alpha Squadron fleet commanded by General Duke. Both fleets were under attack by zerg boarding parties which the Gantrithor reacted by destroying every terran ship on site regardless of affiliation to stop further infestation. Both flagships, the Hyperion and the Norad III however, escaped.[9]

The Gantrithor later appeared on Aiur, commanded by Tassadar though was not present during the brief civil war between Tassadar's followers and those of the Conclave.[10]

Its final battle was the final protoss/terran combined assault against the Overmind. It was heavily damaged in the battle.[10] The Gantrithor was destroyed when Tassadar used the energies of the Dark Templar[11] and rammed into the Overmind, destroying the latter but also the destruction of the ship itself and its crew.[12]

The Gantrithor was a protoss carrier, commanded by Executor Tassadar. It is the most famous of several heavily armed "Super Carriers".[1]

The Gantrithor was powerful enough that it single-handedly defeated an entire terran battlecruiser squadron under the command of General Edmund Duke.[1]
