Giant

[Dark Stalker]

Legends tell tales about tall, lumbering men that reach a tree's height. They are like just any other human being, but gifted with powerful strength, they can lift large boulders and fling them wherever he wishes. Not many people lived upon seeing them.

Intention of this unit: A ranged unit that can kill frontline troops or clerics in a matter of a few turns.

Health: 40
Armour: 8%
Damage: 24
Blocking: 20% or 30% front, 10% or 15% sides
Speed: 3 blocks
Range: 4 blocks ahead of it
Delay: 3 or 4 turns

Is it a bit overpowered?

[Aro23r]

Seems a bit overpowered with its massive power and large range. Perhaps just a range of 2, and no armor.

Two things: 1, please do not make a poll just for a unit, its kinda a waste, people will post their responses.
AND
2. Post the numbers in your original post (go back and edit it). Do not just write *same as another unit.* Post the numbers, makes it easier to read.

Sorry for bustin on ya. Its a good idea, you just need to tweak it a bit.

[Dark Stalker]

I just made some few adjustments after checking references on a few existing units. :D

btw, it wouldnt sound like the guy is powerful if: he can walk 2 blocks, range: 2 blocks ahead. :D

doesnt my giant attract attention? :(

[DKR]

I'll happily offer some advice :) I know mine didnt get that much attention. It seems those with good ideas arent looked over as much as they should be.


Right these are your stats.:
Health: 40
Armour: 8%
Damage: 24
Blocking: 20% or 30% front, 10% or 15% sides
Speed: 3 blocks
Range: 4 blocks ahead of it
Delay: 3 or 4 turns

How about turning them into something like this?
Health: 45
Armour: 0
Damage: 24
Blocking: 40% front, 20% sides
Speed: 3 blocks
Range: 2 blocks all around it (*check diagram below)
Delay: 3 turns

*Diagram of range:
__X
_XXX
XXGXX
_XXX
__X

Nice idea :). Not too overpowered now, before it was a little too much. Think along the lines of statistics, make something strong but something weak about it. E.g. High attack and health but no armour and low range.

Edit: Silly board wont accept more than one space. Excuse use of _ but couldnt think of another way of doing it
