Before posting your Resource, please make sure you can answer YES to any of the following questions:
  • Is the resource ENTIRELY my own work?
  • If no to the previous one, do I have permission from the original author?
  • If no to the previous one, did I put a reasonable amount of work into the resource myself, such that the changes are noticeably different from the source that I could take credit for them?
If you answered no to all three, maybe you should consider taking your stuff somewhere other than the Resources forum.

Consult the Resource/Request Posting Guidelines for more information.

Please don't put requests here! They have their own forum --> here. Thank you!

Haha, it's just a placeholder. They do, however, have a green (slime? acid?) plus white (bone spike) attack however.

Sort of, but this is StarcRaft 2 we're talking about.

I'm pretty sure the hydralisks shoot spines, and always have. I can't find my manual to confirm this, however this seems to confirm what I remember.

Hell, it says in game if you hover over the hydralisks attack icon that it's spines.

They are spines which are not dissimilar to the quills of a porcupine (the zerg evolved the hydralisk out of a large porcupine like herbivore); they are also poisonous to terrans (at least according to Starcraft: Ghost).

I'm using the SC wiki as a resource.

http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Hydrali ... raft_II%29

Note, I'm less concerned about duplicating SC2 balancing than I am in creating a FPS version of each unit that is enjoyable to fight against. For instance, I have maintained the Hydralisks scythe-like claw attack even though it only ever appears in cinematics.
