Can burrowed units hold a Xel'Naga watchtower?

Probably an old question, but interesting enough to know.

I would say not, though it would be easy to notice since the tower is up.

Not sure actually. If a cloaked unit is able to burrowed units should be able to as well.

I pretty sure the answer is no.

No, burrowed units definitely can't.

can a cloaked unit such as a DT activate a tower?

**HydraHydra** · 07-31-2010, 06:31 PM

Yes, cloaked can.

**Jdawsman** · 07-31-2010, 07:49 PM

No burrowed units can't.

so now... why?

Also, to keep a xel'naga activated, you don't have to stand as close as you need to get the tower activated to begin with.

In other words, on a map like LT, you can keep a xel'naga activated by running a reaper up on the high ground and holding position there.

so now... why?

Well I guess a burrow upgraded zergling might be a bit too little of an investment for something as huge as keeping a tower.

I can always see cloaked units but the indication for a burrowed unit is practically nonexistent. Perhaps they felt it was just too hard to spot.
