*Right now the unit is a bit weak, but this is just my first post before revisions. Feel free to offer ideas/suggestions, I believe I'll be changing him later. Thanks.*

Interesting. But you get in 10 attacks at the very most before it ages to death. Expand the lifespan and slow down the changing.

Of course, another problem is the fact that it is very vunerable up to the teen phase.

I'm confused about the health numbers. You keep havin stuff in ()

[Jazierel]

For the life span, my hope was to make it so you would have 20 chances to attack... one turn being you go, then your opponet goes... and yes, you are right, its rather vunerable until its aged 6-8 turns.

The stuff in () was just to try and show how the health would work. Exampe:

Your "Child" has a maximum of 22 health and that's say he's damaged so he only has 10 hit points. When he "shifts" from a child to a teen his maximum health increases by 13 which equals the now new total of 35. His actual health would also increase by 13 (plus the 3 regeneration for every two turns) making his health now: 10+13+3=26 out of 35 possible. Hopefully that clears it up a little.?.

I like the idea. Very original. However, I suggest that after the 20 turns, it remains in a Post Mortem phase with the same stats as that of a teen (with one less movement range.)

That is a really cool idea, but it's a tad complicated. Using it would make my head hurt.:confused:
