CONTRARY

Revised info in BLUE

History
Capricious and Fickle, the CONTRARY has no vested interest in battle for any sake other than battling. The CONTRARY enjoys the fight more than the outcome. Eons of dueling for the enjoyment have honed the CONTRARY'S skills to that of the finest swashbuckler.

Abilities
Hit Points: 46
Power: 17 / 10
Armor: 12
Movement Range: 5
Recovery: 2

Attack Pattern
CONTRARY fights with Rapier and Dagger. Can strike any 1 SURROUNDING (of the eight tiles around CONTRARY's) tile. Each thrust is resolved independantly, thus a total of 27 damage is possible. CONTRARY has a 50% chance of attacking with Rapier and/or Dagger, meaning that if Player attacks an opposing unit, 75% of the time, at least one or the other weapon will be used to attack, 50% of the time both will be used, and 25% of the time, neither will be used.

Special Abilities
Similar to the CONTRARY's attack, she may choose to block with ONE, BOTH or NEITHER blade. (60% with Rapier, 30% with Dagger, 0% with Neither from the front) Each block is resolved independantly.

So your basically taking a chance of either doing 27, 18, 9, or 0 damage and thats before you even take blocking into account. I don't like how it totally relies on luck to decide whether you actually do any damage at all.

I tweaked a bit.

But that's the fun of it, you're rolling the dice on a big hit or a swing and a miss.
