    The Thor looks awful. It's not even that I hate giant mechs, it's that the Thor looks so much like a toy, with all its extra cannons and its superfast turning speed. I also don't see why it needs to be such a long ranged unit specializing in anti-air. I mean, why use a giant mech for such things and not a tank?

    If Blizzard listened to me, I would advise them to focus on the role the Thor could have with leading large-scale battles or base assaults. My idea for that was to give the Thor an attack similar to the burning oil attack of the demolisher in WC3, except from a lot shorter range: an avoidable slow projectile that explodes upon impact and leaves behind fire that also deals damage.

    i can't believe the thor is just a giant goliath.

    Also give the thor some sort of energy weapon! if there is one terran ground unit could have it, its the thor!

    The same thing with the mothership. What they should have done for that is leave the old unit "Star relic" (Which sounds cooler then mothership BTW) and give that the mothership abilities instead of a giant flying saucer taking up half the screen.
    Bah, the Thor may be lame but the Mothership is awesome. She has great spells, and she could potentially be the single-toughest combat unit in the game. They'd have to weaken her or raise her cost A LOT if she weren't unique. And the Star Relic is just bleh.

    Electric weapons so we can see electric death animations for zerg units!


    Play Protoss? Look for the map Photon Cannon Tactics in the NA server!

    The thor's size should be no bigger than 4 x 6 meters. You'd need a crew to manage something bigger.

    I pretty much like the thor as it is ._ .

    As a terran it's gotta be a pretty potent feeling walking across lost temple with a handful of these babies.

    I like the size, but it does look too blocky IMO. If it were more rounded and simpler, as in the concept art, it would look a lot better.
    Superior capability in language does not necessarily equate to superior intelligence...but it certainly doesn't help your argument if you sound stupid.

    The Thor sucks. Can't believe we're still looking at this hideous and boring unit.
