Post some ideas for modding 
Seige Tank = Portable building
After sieging it it turnes to a building that can build suckier version of the original (like it can build marines, but just half hped and half attack ones compared to the one you can build in the Barrack)
If this is posted before, someone please delete this.

I think this would go in General Discussion, not Assistance...
I don't think anyone's thought of it, or you would have seen it somewhere before. Basically, if you haven't seen it, it hasn't been done, as anyone who thinks of an awesome idea will put it in the next mod they can.

I had a portable building using Siege Mode before. Siege Tanks deployed into resource gathering structures.
Anyway, I banish this topic to Modding General.

An air unit that is fast, nimble, and shoots blue anti thermal lasers. When the unit is destroyed, it's anti-thermal core generator overloads and causes an icy explosion that freezes units within a small radius of it.

I had an idea for a next generation unit for SCII.
Terran Poltergeist - These former psychic assassins that were once Terran Ghosts, they have been enhanced with Protoss Psionics that's been deeply studied for since the Devestation of the Protoss Homeworld Aiur.

Definitely some good ideas in there, but there's a few problems, notably that without hex editing the game we can't change the effects of abilities and upgrades.

Yes, it should work fine... of course, there are a few spells that can't be done that way.

I have a few ideas I've been thinking about that I'd like to see. Probably hard to do with abilities and such (I'm not a modder so I wouldn't know) but I still think they're pretty cool.
Terran Mjolnir
After the successful rebellion that toppled the Confederacy, Dominion military strategists initiated a secret black project in conjunction with their new Umojan allies. Out of this project came the Mjolnir, a heavily armoured attack bomber ideal for harrassment of enemy positions. The bomber is best used in small groups to thin out enemy ranks before an assault as their 2,000kg air burst Mauler Bombs are devastating to the light armour of foot soldiers.
Unit Type: Terran Tactical Attack Bomber
Armament: 2,000 kg Mauler bombs
Buildings required:
Terran Starport
Control Tower
Armoury
Built from: Terran Starport
Minerals: 200
Gas: 250
Health: 250
Attack: 15
Sight Range: 6
Attack Range: 2
Armour: 2
Upgrades:
Upgrade Ship Weapons
Upgrade Ship Plating
Protoss Empath
The Protoss Empath is the embodiment of the fusion of the philosophies of the Khala and the Dark Templar. Through meditation and psionic focus, the Empath can actually carry the wounds of others, returning the Templar soldiers back to the battle in full health. As part of an assault group, the Empath can also transfer it's own wounds to attacking forces. Through a powerful psionic bond it gains the sensory experiences of a target. However, such a bond permanantly damages both the Empath and the target and both die shortly thereafter.
Unit Type: Protoss Healer
Armament: None
Buildings required:
Citadel of Adun
Templar Archives
Built from: Gateway
Minerals: 75
Gas: 100
Health: 60
Shields: 60
Sight Range: 4
Attack Range: 2
Energy: 200
Armour: None
Abilities:
•Empathy 50 energy: This special ability transfers all damage from the targeted unit to the Empath. If this would bring the health of the Protoss Empath below '0' then the Empath dies.
•Sympathy 100 energy: The Empath tranfers all damage from itself to tageted unit, returning it to full health. Can only be used on enemy units.
•Psionic Bond 75 energy: The Empath gains the line of sight for the targeted unit until it runs out of energy. While it has this line of sight, the Empath cannot move, attack, or use any other abilities. Once the Empath's energy runs out it, and the unit it's bonded to, dies. If the unit the Empath is bonded to dies before the Empath's energy runs out, the Empath dies.
Upgrades:
Upgrade Shields
Upgrade Ground Armor
Khaydarin Amulet (+50 to energy)

Zerg Infested Battlecruiser
Similar to a normal battlecruiser, but self heals, and is built by damaging, and infesting with a queen. Can use yamato gun if researched by pre-owning player.
HP: 650
Mana: 200/250 depends on wether battlecruiser energy was researched
Weapon: Damaged ATS/ATA Lasers
Damage: 20
Zerg Infested Carrier
The ship's enormous hangar was filled with infestation and creep, even a miniature hatchery has been formed inside it's hull, this hatchery can create scourges and mutalisks. Similar to a protoss carrier in most ways, self heals, and can construct scourges, which act as interceptors and ram themselves into enemies one by one (this idea was hijacked from voy's antithesis rising(the suiciding interceptors one)) and mutalisks, which act almost exactly like interceptors. All remaining interceptors fly to the nearest carrier with open space, if it's within a 7-square radius, or self destruct.
regular HP+400
Normal Sheilds
Max Scourges 2/4*
Max Mutalisks 1/2*
*Depends on whether carrier capacity was researched
I should really think of something new

Nice ideas guys. Keep 'em coming.
Terran Randomizer- An orb like unit, a bit smaller than the Science Vessel, that attacks using a random weapon. So you never know what this thing is gonna use, it could be a 1 damage gauss rifle that only does 1 damage, or it could be a nuke. The possibilities go pretty far.

Make turrets based on spider mines, so you can go around laying them, and they unburrow and shoot people (cant move). And they explode on contact (use trgtrangecondjmp).

How about a biulding that is created by combining two other biuldings. Like dark templar/high templar... I know it's hardcoded into the game, but you could turn the darktemplar/high templar into biuldings or whatever... heh.
