Karune: Can the queen heal?
by Archerofaiur | 01/07/2009 00:32:58![]() Someone said on another forum that the queen can heal. Is this true? How does call-down supplies work currently? What buildings can be salvaged? Is the Banshee's portrait female? Why was the depleted gas mechanic removed?

1) In the current build, for 100 energy, the Queen can heal a biological unit or building by 200 hit points. 2) For 50 energy, the Terran Orbital Command can increase a supply depot's supply provided by +8 permanently. 3) Terran Add-Ons, Bunkers, Sensor Towers, and Missile Turrets can be salvaged for 100% of its cost. Salvage currently takes 5 seconds to complete. 4) Yes, the Banshee portrait is of a female pilot. 5) Vespene gas can still become depleted from geysers. Most geysers have 2500 gas each. |

In addition to having detection and increased speed from the Overlord they can use these abilities: Spore Cloud (50 energy)- Release a cloud of fog, covering an area and blocks line of sight for a period of time (subject to balance). Units that are above the fog can see into and over the fog. This ability is great at blocking the line of sight of spotter units on cliffs, block line of sight of Marines while your Zerglings run up close to attack range, or even to hide your ranged units like Hydralisks from the enemy while having your own spotter for the Hydras. Changeling (100 energy)- Changes into an enemy unit (Zealot, Zergling, or Marine) depending on the enemy race. This unit acts as an excellent scout. |

Dustin did also mention that he felt this could possibly be too strong, but we will probably wait until beta for evidence before making any changes. |
