Vampire

The vampire lives off blood and is hard to kill. You gotta have a wooden stake to kill this biznatch.

HP-36
Armor-none
Power-18
blocking-10% front, 5% sides
range of movement-4 spaces (turns into bat when moves)
Attack pattern- attacks one adjacent tile
Special- Drain attack, it heals the vampire half of the damage it does.
recovery-2 turns, 1 without moving, or attacking

tactics: It is a great unit for a last resort. Keep it well hidden in the beginning of the game.

Is the "wooden stake" a mechanic (can only be damaged by Scouts or something), or just filler?

You forgot Recovery, by the way, so I'm assuming one:

It seems a bit weak. I mean, it'll only heal itself for 6 damage, which isn't that effective, plus with the low HP, armor and blocking, the goober can be slain with startling ease. I mean, those stats are worse than magic-users' stats, and they're not getting into melee range to attack. It's not particularly good at attacking, either, being weaker than all other units in the game.

I'd say bump HP to 37, and power to 18. And I think that's still being conservative; it could probably still be balanced if it were stronger than that.

Yeah, the 'Wooden Stake' is just joking...
