Hello there zerg fans, lets cut to the chase the reason i have made this section is because of my idea for a new unit for the zerg it is called the Xargon (still working on concept art) the xargon is a AA unit it has a move where it splits itself in half with the ability to contract together again (if one dies the other is stuck as a smaller unit, but you can create new smaller units to combine with the lone Largon (mini xargon)) this unit is a good unit it does however cost a heafty sum of crystals and gas because of its capabilities but say you had one Xargon against one strong air unit of the protoss you could simply become two you would slowly overpower it with maybe one casualty then return home to your base make one more Largon and merge them together (note: Largons have no abilities except merge, While Xargons have one ability that alows them to speed up for 15 seconds making the Xargon/Largon the perfect AA and scout unit
I think we shall stay at the normal non splitting Zerg units, I prefer splitting at the production (multiply zerglings) Maybe they could use it at other units too.
How about making Largons come out of eggs in pairs of 2 like zerglings, and then Merging afterwards, instead of the other way around? It sounds more Zerg-like.
Hmm this is a rare place in the forum for me since I am not a huge Zerg fan (I am a Protoss fan) but I noticed this and decided to have a look and what I saw surprised me. This is a very good idea and I think is very intuitive and great for the zerg and its SO good infact that I am not surprised that a Blizzard guy might see this and just make a unit just like it accept with a few alterations. Good job!
Come to think of it, merging isn't really Zerg-like, seems more microbic/energy plus Protoss already merge so I don't know. But since Zerg are basically like normal animals but their spikes have spikes, how about allowing two seperate units to mate then a new unit will be born. After it is created/born it would take time to develope so this would be a heavy unit. Ahh ideas ideas ideas. Relating this to Termites and Ants which the Zerg operate in a similar fasion they could have a new type of Queen unit which produces these different kind of Larvae that spawn off to be 1-2 different units and this Queen could move about the battle field but slowly meaning it needs lots of defence but could spawn Zerg units on the go and once the arrival at an enemy base you could swarm them with these units the Queen could spawn.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT I LOVE YOU ALL XD and that is a good idea of 2 largons = one xargon but the reason i didnt want to do that was it would be to simmilar to the protoss archons i will be making more zerg protoss and terran units over time so keep a look out for the x-X-x XD
Yeah, it's true. Anyway, talking about this made me think about something.. imagine like 8 zerglings climbing on top of each other and kinda like merging into some uber-zergling thingie lol
