The Giant Lizards were bred to patrol the land around a kingdom, and protect it from scouts, spies, ect.

Ability:

1. The Giant Lizard gains a +6 attack bonus when withen 4 tiles of the friendly unit he started the game closest to.
ex1- You position your Giant Lizard in front of your Cleric, until the Cleric dies the Lizard has 20 attack when withen 4 tiles of the cleric.
ex2- If the Lizard is The same distance away from two of your units then at the begining of your first turn an extra option will appear so the Lizard is assigned a subject to guard.

2. During the phase of choosing a direction for the Giant Lizard to face, if he does a 90 degree turn the direction he was facing is hit for 5 damage (blockable). However if the Giant Lizard does a 180 degree turn both tiles next to him are hit for 5 damage (un-blockable).

Armor: 8, 16 when the unit is is guarding is adjacent.

Health: 52

Movement: 3 (with option to attack, 0 turn wait if no attack is placed), 5 (attack option suspended, with 2 turn wait)

Power: 14

Range: A single adjacent tile, like a Knight or Mud Golem.

Recovery: If the Giant Lizard attacks it is placed with a 2 turn wait time. If the Giant Lizard does not attack then it is a 1 turn wait. If the 5 space movement is utilized the Giant Lizard may not attack and must wait 2 turns before another movement/attack phase.

Thank you for reading my CAU thread. Comments, Questions and Critiques are welcome.

Its a little overpowered hitting 20 plus 5, and also, the direction is a little complex. Youd hurt yourself with it a lot.

True about the power, but the downside is that it has very little bearing on what it hits and can be detrimental to your own units as well as your opponants. It would take work to not destroy your own team. In addition it cant block, and if the guarded unit is destroyed (which is likely considering it might be a cleric) it balances out the raw force of the unit. It would take a good deal of fines <- am I spelling that right? Well I hope you get my point. If you still disagree please suggest a modification that would more properly balance it in your opinion.
