Made from hardy steel, for both great armor and strength, Steel Golem can severly damage multiple units in a rumbling thrash from distance. This Golem can live for centuries, feeling no pain, as it rampaged over lands...

Name: Steel Golem
Race: Golem
HP: 60
Armor: 25
Blocking: 0%
Movement: 2
Power: 22 (Blockable)
Range: 2
Recovery: 3 turns
Other Information:
-You can only place up to 1 Steel Golem on the field.

Whenever Steel Golem attacks, it'll also do damage to units, friendly or not, 1 spaces around its attack target, but won't do damage to itself. (It is like Pyromancer with range of 2) This will do 8 damage, unblockable (except barriered unit), and can be reduced by armor.

One question for everyone: If people thinks your made-up unit is very good, will the creator of TAO take your unit and use it in TAO?

Golems are suppose to have no defense. and its soecial with extra 8 damagde over powers it. 22 attack is strong enough.

The armor's too high. I suggest putting it at 0 for the reason Supersmiley stated, but of course every golem breaks some rule about golems. This currently breaks the power, range and armor rules.

Stone golem has armor
Ambusher has range
Mud golem has movement, and possibly range minus power with multi-targetting.
Frost golem has different attack effect

Don't like it, too much like a muddy, and golems have no armor, and we have enought golems already. Be more creative.

Eh? It's more like a pyromancer than a mud golem, and not even very close to that. I thin the best unit to compare it with is the knight, because at least the blockable reach and power are the same. Hmmm, lowering the armor to 0 would make it too weak, but 25 is too high... how about 11 armor?

wait can he punch like the mud, or can he just quake? because 25 power is a lot, so i agree wit scb to lower the armor around 11...but remember it only has two moving :p

It only has one attack, a sort of cross between the punch and the quake. And the power isn't 25... the armor is. :confused:
Recovery 3 turns... well, maybe the high armor is OK with that. This is definitely a slow unit, so the toughness won't hurt much.
Hmmm, it's almost a pyromancer, but -1 movement -1 range and *3 toughness. I guess that's fair. Good job.

i think its a good unit, but because its a golem, it shouldn't have defense...but seeing its so slow (as scb stated) i suggest lowering the defense slightly, to 20, other than that i like the unit
