Err, your missing the point Im trying to make. Simply put, this just makes it hard to know whats going on underneath. You can't exactly see whats under a Command Center unless you remove it. And this strategy is just an Anti-Queen Broodling and Web. By all means, attack like you normally would, you dont have to go air. This is also not a build to make a fortress. Its simply a strategy you can do to stop players from specifically clicking on a ground unit without having to blow apart the building ontop first. Its meant for Queen Broodlings and Webbing mainly. Yeah, maybe I went a bit overboard but its still a nice trick I think o.O; I mean, if you send a observer / lord to your oppoents entrance and see....4 floating CCs...what the heck is under it? Or you manage to sneak a Queen in to Broodling the peons...but now you see barracks covering the entire mineral gathering...how can you click on the SCV anymore? You want to Yamato a turret? Oops...now you have to yamato that engineering bay ontop of it first of have to come close and shoot it down normally (by making your unit stand on hold position so it auto targets the attacker).

Its not THAT great of a trick, just a bit useful.

I did an edit on this post. You can also use this on Hunters. You know how Terrans love to use that cliff as their siege tank drop area? As Terrans, fly a building to cover and stop them. There is still a chance they'll drop but it'll deley them (hopefully long enough for your turret to blow them away). If they do drop, they can't siege it since they're tank is covered (unless of course they have it hotkeyed, but most Terran players dont hotkey the two tank drop. As Zerg, use your lords and as Protoss....well you dont worry, you just storm the crap outta that cliff lol.
