Resistant to ALL physical damage?
Seems a tad bit overpowered to me. An added resistance to physical damage [15 - 25] from it's basic armor rating would neem reasonable.

Yes immune to physical damage is way overpowered. I won't tell you why because I'm tired of telling people why, so can someone else please do it for me?

EDIT: Cross Punisher, I did it for you. You just beat me to the punch on the post.
All right, aside from what was said about the immune to physical... If you're going to make it immune to ALL physical damage, why bother give it blocking? Even if it's hit, it won't DO anything to it. Non-physical attacks are ALWAYS unblockable, all blockable attacks are physical.
Giving it immunity to physical attacks is pointless. Two DMW attacks can kill it, but for every move/attack a DMW makes, the Cleric can sit still and Heal, making it three, and then four DMW attacks (assuming two heals; three heals wouldn't make a difference). Assuming the Witch has to move each time because the Frog can move, then that's a three turn wait each time; ample time to kill off the DMW completely. Pyromancers aren't any better; they would do only about 14 damage/attack, which is virtually nothing when healing is applied, and they die easily too. Dragonspeaker Mage has the power to do 24 damage to it even after applying armor, assuming only one pyro/no pyroes, but it can die easily as well. Then it's dead.
The Dragon Tyrant and the Lightning Ward are the only two units that can not only leave an effect on the monster, but kill it without the death potential. HORRIBLY overpowered versus a grey, because it can kill a DMW and a pyro in two hits even with a heal, and then after that it's invulnerable. Decrease the immunity to physical attacks or get rid of it entirely, or you have an invincible killing machine.
