StarCraft II update: bring on the Battlecruiser |
Ó
The latest update on Blizzard's StarCraft II website is big, because the Battlecruiser is finally operational. Terran's capital ship (that make Korean girls shriek) is back after receiving a makeover, but its new weapons take the cake.Described as "massive, heavily armored combat ships that are virtual flying fortresses, built to keep the peace and dominate the space lanes of the Koprulu sector," we're more interested in the new upgrades that make the Battlecruiser more flexible to various situations.
As you would have guessed, the Yamato Cannon is back. "A terrifying weapon that uses an intense magnetic field to focus a nuclear detonation into a cohesive beam of energy," they say. For StarCraft fans, it's that 150 energy skill that does 260 damage and provides bragging rights.
Thanks to new research, Battlecruisers can now be equipped with plasma torpedoes to obliterate troops with heavy fire. It probably won't as powerful be as the dreaded Protoss mothership, but the Zerg who love to come in numbers would have to watch out. We can't imagine dragoon armies surviving from the onslaught, neither.
