Dragon Slayer:

Hit Points : 45
Movement Range : 3
Power : 22/28 (will explain below)
Recovery Time : 1
Armor : 20%

Attack Pattern :
Slashes a single unit on an adjacent tile with his sword.

Special Abilities :
+ 80% Blocking from the front ( 40% from the sides )
20% reduction to fire based attacks (dragons and pyromancers)

If the OPPONENT has a dragon on the field this knight gains 6 attack power while the dragon is on the field. Basically, they are the same as a regular knight minus 5 ac and hp for the advantage against dragon holding opponents or plainly against pyromancers if the opponent has no dragon.

Not a great idea but it kinda fits the game, I think, seeing that there are dragons about. Some stats may have to be twinked but it seems an ok idea to me.

Let me know what ya think...

PS - oh and the increase in attack can be felt by all characters on the board if the OPPONENTS dragon is still alive or you can change it to only the dragon. Either way still seems cool but the question is, will it be overpowering? But, I really don't think it will be overpowering seeing the dragonspeaker character, so you decide.

Overpowered. I made a knight stronger once lol it didn't work out. Seriously though you have to give this character a weakness. Decrease the blocking, decrease armour, make him ride a mule it doesn't matter just make him worse.

Are you trying to make a counter for the dragonspeaker mage... Are you angry because people pyro rush you?

Ok how about these changes?

Dragon Slayer:

Hit Points : 45
Movement Range : 3
Power : 22/28 (will explain below)
Recovery Time : 1
Armor : 15%

Attack Pattern :
Slashes a single unit on an adjacent tile with his sword.

Special Abilities :
+ 80% Blocking from the front ( 40% from the sides )
20% reduction to fire based attacks (dragons and pyromancers)
50% increase in damage taken from no fire based magic attacks.

Oh and na DSM are ok but they only really have one shot in them most times and then you can take them out fast. Just figure that the relm of dragons and knights needs to have a balance. Right now the dragons can enhance the DSM but nothing can power a knight to take the Dragon. True the dragon is 2 pieces on the board so possibly atlernate changes below to make a good dragon slayer.

Dragon Slayer:

Hit Points : 50
Movement Range : 3
Power : 22/28 (will explain below)
Recovery Time : 1
Armor : 25%

Attack Pattern :
Slashes a single unit on an adjacent tile with his sword.

Special Abilities :
+ 80% Blocking from the front ( 40% from the sides )
30% reduction to fire based attacks (dragons and pyromancers)

(Unit counts as 2 pieces on the field. Hmm... maybe underpower now but, eh... it can be tweeked. Hehe in mid typing changed to 30% fire damage reduction but hmm... it maybe ok now... have to think more on it later.)

The increase in the power of the attack is just based on if the creature is a pryo or dragon. The charater would look pretty much like a regular knight but with an icy blade (possibly glowing with blue cold steel).

Hmm... this seems better? Oh wait the story :)
