HP: 30
Blocking: 28% (14%)
Attack: 20
Armour: 0
Movement Range: 2
Attack Range: 3
Attack Pattern: Swings his sword and a light blast comes out and hits the first unit in LOS.
Recovery: 3

Special: Plague

This Special can only be used when the unit has less than 10 HP. The unit places his sword in the ground and unleashes a plague upon the field. Every turn, one random unit from each side is automatically destroyed.

Probably best to keep it at the back, then unleash the plague when your opponent has a few less units than you do.

Ah, but it depends on who is the better player. Your opponent could take advantage of this as the plague randomly destroys one unit on each side of the playing field. So with it destroying random units, it could destroy your only chance of winning. Like taking out your Cleric when they have a DSM could make you lose. They would have a Dragon Tyrant on the field and could simply destroy a few units until the Plague chooses to destroy the DT.

But for good mesure, you can only use it when they have less than 10 HP...

It's a cool concept, but there's one word in it that makes me not like it: Random.

People complain about blocking, why make the game any more random than it already is?

Instead of people whining about knight side blocks, they'd complain about which unit was killed by this thing.

I like the idea of a plague though, maybe there's another way to impliment it.

I though you meant a random unit on each team, so two units get killed.

Maybe it could damage people instead? All out killing them is pretty harsh for a random attack. Myabe reduce their HP by half the targeted unit's max hp.

Oh. Well than, it seems OK, but I don't know how many people would use it, it just seems overly devastating.

Cool idea tho :)
