Wow, you guys are neglecting the single most ingenious idea.

The third race is genetically augmented WW2 Wehrmacht soldiers, transported through time to combat the alien menace. As far as storyline is concerned, the Wehrmacht successfully eliminate all aliens, then proceed to put all ethnic and religious marines into concentration camps. Then Herbert, the one dretch who survived without the Wehrmacht noticing, sabotages the German execution machines to free all the marines. Then the commanding Marine, Sgt. Smith, lives a wonderful life having wacky adventures with Herbert. There's a television show spinoff, and millions of dollars worth of Herbert and Smith merchandise. They'd even have their own theme song.

"Ohhhhhhhh ittttttt's Herbert and Smith, Herbert and Smith, the wacky adventures of Herbert and Smith,
One eats with a mouth, one absorbs nutrients through a membrane,
And together they get revenge on those evil german Nazis!
One's got two fists, the other a poisonous tongue-like appendage..."

.....

Shut up, it's a good story.
omg, you win the internets

It's already humans vs aliens, therefore Predator needs to be added.

One word, Phantoms. The Phantoms from Final Fantasy The Spirits Within. They can walk though doors without activating them, they are slow but do high damage when they attack with limits to they range.    :D

Oh, and one more thing: The main disadvantage to the GANG (Genetically Augmented Nazi Germans) is that all players continuously yell "Granate!", as per this ytmnd. Sucks when other players hear you going "Granate! Granate! Runter, Granate!" as you try to sneak up on them.

(lol, what an awesome coincidence that it stands for GANG)

I would like some mechanized race.
A laser cutter would be real nice, especially how you can elegantly paint a line across the opponent's face.

Biggest win ever.


But the 3rd class should be Flying Spaghetti Monster (http://www.venganza.org/) clones. They would have god like powers and can create anything using there noodly appendage. They can also pause time and go invisible.

I think a good third race would be comedians who aren't funny.
Example weapons could be the aforementioned "third joke"

For the phantoms idea I got a solid base and growth tree(phantom units).

Growth Tree

Builders(50 hp) -> can turn into builders+(75 hp) at s2
Builders+ can attack but normals can't
Builders -> can turn into Small attackers(50 hp) (half human size)

Small attackers -> can turn into Small attacker+(100 or 75 hp) at s3

All small attackers(and+type) can turn into Middle attackers(150 hp)

Middle attackers can turn into Middle attackers+(200 hp) at s2 or Large Attacker(500 hp) at s3

Middle attackers+ can fly so they can kill flying people.

But here is the catch you need to suck the health out of humans or aliens(high damage). So when you get 200 hp you can grow into a middle attacker+ but when your health goes lower than 200 you ungrow to normal middle attacker.

Phantoms Building

1. Phantom Flooder
-makes a pool of health sucking goo and slow you down actives when person or alien passes it

2. Phantom Wall (hard to make)
-a wall that hurts alot if you step thought, phantom can go thought without a worries.

3. Phantom Grabber
-noodle like thing attacks you holds on( :tesla: + :trapper: )

4. Gaia
-the center makes spirits, build points (ei  :reactor: or :overmind: for phantoms)

5. Phantom Spawner
- I think you will this one

I think the third team should be people who expect to have meaningful discussions on an online video game forum.

okay how about this
aliens = tyranids
humans = imperial guards
so the third should be another interesting race :P

I don't think anyone wants to directly rip off that movie and sort of patch it into tremulous... I like the vampire mode kind of idea and think it could easily be added into tremulous either as a mod or class somewhere.. but a whole team based around the phantoms idea just creates a lot of the issues people have had with a lot of other suggestions.. like another flying class etc.

Either sentient machines, or space zombies.
Or space nazis.
Because machines would be cool, and no one objects to killing nazis or zombies.

We can't we have humanoids or arachnids, and it can't look absoloutly shite.

Erm... Um...

Fluffy Bunnies!!! Rank based Fluffy Bunnies, with little medic or engineer hats. :D Then we can have Assault Bunnies which have jaws twice as big as themselves and can eat 3 common goons in a sitting :)

Oh, and the human screws tyrant thing is just scary. :o And wrong. So wrong.

SC is far too deeply seated in my mind. There is no alternative to human, alien, and humanoid techno-race!

Then again, I think Warhammer 40k was too deeply seated in Blizzard's mind, considering the gigantic rip-off. But they had other races anyway.
