I was having a debate in health today with my friend (The health teacher stopped talking to us :) ) about what weapon we would use in medival times. I told him I would use a halberd (He said he would use a dagger... lol) and it got me thinking, why not CAU one?

I started focusing on that in health, and this is my product-

_______________________________________________

In the medieval time period when Europe was in a constant state of warefare, new ideas were forming about weapons. One of these products was the halberd, an axe with a much longer pole. It has a great amount of strength, due in part to its great weight. As it developed over time, it became more apt to deal with different challenges such as cavalry.

Name: Halberdier
HP: 40
Armor: 12
Power: 26
Range: 2 *
Block: 70 †
Movement: 3
Wait: 3

* The halberdier can aim at only one space. However, if he aims at 2, it becomes like the beast rider, and hits the 2 consecutive spaces. However, the unit between the targeted space and the halberdier takes only half damage, as it is not impaled by the blade put by the staff.

† Its blocking is dependant on its wait status. The halberd was used in part as a defensive weapon, allowing blocking chances to increase. Its blocking goes as follows: 70/(current wait +1). If it had one wait, its blocking is 35%, if it is two it is 23, if it is 4 it is 18.

Idk, its ok..... better the the other Halberdier, but i think that this one might be a mix of a knight and a BR, i like the blocking ideas thats kool. All in all, the unit isnt bad, but it isnt exactly good, its.....ok, in a good kind of way.

This is terribly unoriginal. It's nothing more than a tweaked BR.
I do, however, commend that interesting blocking explanation. Good job on that, at least.

HellBlazer, the CAU is your favorite thing on the forums isn't it? :confused:
