The Colossus is a tech-intensive groundunit from Protoss. They are able to dish out a lot of damage to ground units, but are very vulnerable to flying units and require support to keep the opposing force away. They are able to climb up and down cliffs, allowing for interesting micro. Most players agree that the Extended Thermal Lance is almost nessesary when going for Colossi, increasing the range by 3.
