Baneling – Zerg Unit

December 3rd, 2008

The Baneling is a sickly greenish yellow color due to the fluid that clots its body. It has to roll to move around, pulling itself into a fluid filled ball and moving at surprising speeds.

The Baneling is the suicide bomber of the Zerg swarms. Its soul purpose is to die and take enemy units and structures down with it. Bred by the Zerg Queens to be able to contain devastating acid inside their bodies, they can travel alone or in a clutch, roll innocently into a group of troops and blow them all to smithereens.

A clutch of ten could seriously destroy an enemy base, or a good part of it. The Banelings are modified Zerglings, the most common Zerg subspecies. Because there are so many, the swarm has a virtually limitless source of suicide bombers.

@djaffe Depends on the game type. Generally, I enjoy a consistent visual theme throughout. Makes everything more coherent and less eclectic GO 2009/05/28
