The Warchief is an Indian Unit with double tomahawks. He is very similiar to both the Assassin and Enchantress. He is similiar to Assassin because his "inital" attack will attack all squares surrounding him exactly like that of the Assassin. He is similiar to Enchantress because he has the attack range just like her. See below to help understand more.

The Warchief has the option of either attacking all squares surrounding him "or" throwing one of his tomahawks. If he decides to throw a tomahawk he can only do so at any "1" enemy unit within his radius.

I will edit accordinly and depending on feedback from all of you. Legacy rated my first idea stating that "what unit would you give up that you currently use for this unit?" With this idea I can see possibly trading for a knight(possibly) due to his throw technique or wispy, or another lesser unit. HP's may be too high for this unit, but that's where you all come in. I must say that I kinda rushed this unit out as Im fairly hooked now at trying to get a decent CAU, meaning that I did not Search to see if there was similiar ideas out there. So if there are I'm sorry for skipping over that part and will do so for all future ideas.

Thanks

I don't mind the short ranged unit (although I'd never use him personally)... however, the fact it is just an extra-powerful Assassin... not real original, but nice try. I don't think I'd ever use it, but then again, it's me. However, this unit would probably never replace Knights, as Knights have more armor, HP, and blocking... replace the Assassins maybe (admit it, nobody uses the Assassin as a bomb, or, at least, doesn't plan an entire formation on it).

[Morning Star]

Your right in the fact that it probably couldn't and wouldn't replace a Knight and I wouldnt want it too. I could see this as a unit that people would use to replace...say there Beast Rider...and don't give me any crap about noone use's beast riders :bigsmile: Using this guy in Stone Cluster, he could be a force.

[Cardplayer89]

That's just it... too much power for such a durable unit. 80 potential damage (60 is top realistic damage, and even then, 45 is closer to top) for something that can last as long as a Knight.

[Morning Star]

I just don't see this unit as being too over powered I guess. Stats can be adjusted. If anything I was thinking of dropping HP to 42 and and armor to 16, althougn i don't know how people will rate him even with these stats. I can't see this unit as a deciding factor in an endgame situation. I see him as another twist to playing and nothing enough to alter TAO as a whole by making the game unbalanced.

[Cardplayer89]

Look at it this way:

You stone him. Even with 16 armor, he is going to stop 46% of all damage issued to the 42 HP. That would require... lemme think... -counts on fingers-
A Dragon Tyrant and a Witch in a row would only do 27 damage... and that's without healing... by that time, he has inflicted 2 rounds of attacks (for, reasonably, a possible 80 damage).

Good Point...and noted

[Cardplayer89]

Don't take it hard, but modifying units doesn't usually work out too well, lol :D Trust me.

[Morning Star]

O no problem i just want to get my ideas out there. And since I dont think there horrible and are a bit interesting i don't think too mant people will mind. I will not give up! :cool:

[Kyir]

please, give up

[Morning Star]

please, give up

Well if your going to say this please explain as to why? If not, then i suggest not reading anymore of my posts.

[Cardplayer89]

He's right about this unit, there won't really be a genuine way to make this particular one useful to the game. Don't give up on CAU, just let this one go... I know it's hard, lol, but in the words of Legacy67:

I say leave this unit alone and move on to bigger and better things. (He told me that when I wouldn't give up on the Bounty Hunter)

[Kyir]

Well if your going to say this please explain as to why? If not, then i suggest not reading anymore of my posts.

becasue I hate you

[Cardplayer89]

Kyrir, quit being such an ass and shut up already. I've seen maybe 1 or 2 useful posts from you in the CAU section.

[Kyir]

you havnt exactly been here that long, and I have a perfactly valid reason that Ichose not to tlak about in public

[Cardplayer89]

lol, I may not have been here long, but I can still recognize a dumb statement when I see one. If you have personal reasons for flaming someone, do it with PMs, because doing it in public makes you look incredibly dumb and enormously immature.

[Kyir]

I flame in public because I dont get the controversial attention that I dont get from PM"s :rolleyes:
