暴雪《星际争霸2》官方(starcraft2.com)今日更新，公布人族的新建筑单位——Sensor Tower感应塔。该建筑主要作用是在周围形成一个防隐形圈，使进入圈中的敌方隐形单位现形。感应塔还可以变成雷达塔，用于探测黑雾里的敌人数量，范围很广。

　　单位分析：加入感应塔之后，人族的探测能力再次提升。如果完整保留基地雷达，地对空炮台反隐形和科技球的话，人族在任何阶段都无视隐形战术。但我坚决相信，地对空炮台己失去反隐形能力。

Top terran military analysts all agree that "Knowing is half the battle" and that early warning is one of the keys to victory. The sensor tower is a vital tool for long-range surveillance of enemy movement and the detection of stealthed aggressors. Sensor towers are a lynchpin of terran base defenses, and as such, they need to be heavily guarded. A smart attacker will try to destroy sensor towers as the first priority.　　

　　人族高级军事专家都认同”侦察是战斗的关键“的观点，他们认为早期的预警是成功的关键。感应塔是监视远距离敌人活动的重要工具，它也可以探测隐藏的偷袭者。感应塔好比人族基地的保险闩， 因此需要严加防护，聪明的敌人都会先去毁掉人类的感应塔。

　　A sensor tower processes a whole battery of input, constantly updating a commander's knowledge of the battlefield. By using both passive and active thermal and electromagnetic scanning mixed with millimetric radar sweeps, input from seismic sensors, and Doppler analysis, a sensor tower can quickly pinpoint any target within range. Even foes that are out of sight behind terrain can be detected, although a visual verification will still be required to positively identify them.
　　感应塔需要装入电池，它不断的为基地传输战场的讯息。通过使用反动热能装置和电磁扫描雷达（真TMD的高科技，有兴趣的查英文）装备了地震传感器, 和多谱勒仪，感应塔可以迅速的探测定位范围内的任何目标。即使是视野外的敌人也可以被探测到，但是要真正看见敌人还需要进一步的识别（就是说，从红色的叹号到敌人原形还需要走近看到）

　　The downside to all this multi-spectrum output is that foes can easily detect the presence of a sensor tower and use it to identify the whereabouts of a terran base. Other strategies revolve around "spoofing" the tower with decoy units or simply staying outside its range. Terran commanders have been known to counter by erecting sensor towers in fake base locations just to keep enemies guessing.
　　多光谱探测的缺点是，敌人可以轻易的探测到感应塔，并了解人族基地的位置。一些战略家开始利用巧妙暴露感应塔来诱骗敌人，或者带在感应塔范围之外。人组的指挥官已经学会在假基地里建立感应塔，让敌人陷入疑惑。
