this is similar to that stupid dragon rider idea that someone else came up with, but this is better.
the griffon would be for both gold and grey members, and would be a weaker form of the dragon.
the griffon would have 30hp, 40% blocking, 18 power, and would be able to move about the same amount as the assassin can.
the griffons special abillity would be fusion. the griffon would be able to fuse with any of the three knights.
this would then give the griffon rider 50hp, 50%blocking, 25 power, it could still move the same amount as an assassin.
to make it less powerful, archers would decrease their blocking by 20% when they would atk.
as for making the 2 fuse, they would have to step on the same space as eachother.
trash this idea if you want, i was just thinking. lol

Fusing units.... theres an interesting idea.... has it been done before? Don't know. It might not be balanced though, it's difficult to tell......

Fusing units has been suggested before, but the idea of having to fuse with a knight is interesting, because knights are generally thought of as some of the more powerful characters. And you can have a maximum of 3 of them.
Considering that the fused form takes up 2 units though, and at least one turn to fuse, the fact that it blocks less and has the same HP as a knight, and only 3 more damage, makes me think 'underpowered'. (By all areas, I mean all areas you indicated - you didn't give stats on attack range or armor.)
Also having a unit weak to another specific unit (i.e. 20% less blocking vs. scouts) is an unnessecary addition to the game mechanics, and not likely to get implemented. It needs to be balanced without things like that.
Still, I'd say you're on the right track to something cool.
EDIT: one more thing, it's been long established that grey's aren't getting new units, it's even in the sticky. Suggesting they do will only bring fire...

Plus is right. Greys aren't getting any new units. And who are you talking about? There has been like 80 people who came up with Dragon Riding people. I was one of them and if you meant to affront my honor, let us duke it out on the field of battle.

i think everyone should stop trying to make extra good units for greys, its not gonna happen, and if it does, u dont decide, the game makers do

It's a great idea, maybe lower the blocking of the knight a little and raise the Griffon's HP. Otherwise this would be a pretty cool unit to have on TAO, just one question, would everyone be able to automatically have this, or would it be available as only a unit drop?
