Thread: Dark shrine seems to be a very boring building

    What, are Xsoldier and I the only ones who noticed?
    Anyhow, with Wankey's idea, that would really only work in campaign, as he neglected to mention. And I'm not sure how good of an idea that would be, if they're only different models of melee units.

    Oh, I've always been here. You just didn't see me because I didn't want you to see me, in which case, if I see you before you see me...
    Look out!

    Eh, I've been here for the past month or two, after a long absence. Sorry.

    I'm torn here, because while I don't like a building that is enables one single unit and has no tech, I also think that the Dark Templar are way too cool to be just slapped back in with the High Templar. Ultimately I'd prefer it if the building enabled two different units (preferably for two different buildings), but an aura ability like Tritanis suggested is the best I can see happening.

    Oohh! I know, Dark Shrine + Templar Archives are needed for Mothership!

    Which of course then gets a model makeover combining dark and high templar tech.

    I don't know about that, but I'll go for the suggestion that they're need for Cloaking Field and Wormhole Transit respectively.

    That's what I thought. Whenever I think of the Boros I get the image of a Dark Templar decked out in armor like a Yautja. They are said to be heavily armed and armored.

    Be it through hallowed grounds or lands of sorrow
    The Forger's wake is bereft and fallow

    Is the residuum worth the cost of destruction and maiming;
    Or is the shaping a culling and exercise in taming?

    The road's goal is the Origin of Being
    But be wary through what thickets it winds.

    Precisely. They always make subtle references to other sci-fi things (Aliens, Star Trek, etc). I think that the design fits really well, as well as the reference.
