SHADOW WALKER




TAO NEEDS A NINJA WE JUST WONT CALL IT ONE!
OOOps TRANCENDANT (ETHEREAL STATE) lasts 2 turns and then wears off, activating this special adds to recovery just like an attack would.

[Barzini]

I like it!

I also like that you add a picture of it.

Well done.

[shatterstar]

can it phase, move and attack all in 1 turn? when phased can it occupy the same tile as another unit? also, when hes phased, shouldnt scout arrows pass right through? does the ethereal state wear of at the end of the 2nd turn or at the beginning of the 3rd turn? hpw does paralysis/poison/barrier/stun work in that state?

other than that, pretty neat. your image of the range conflicts with the description of the range, you may want to fix that. it may be a little too durable for what it can do, but thats upto debate.

[Cross Punisher]

a ninja that can pass through the physical realm has less movement than an assassin?

But like shatterstar said, can it phase out, move, and attack all in the same turn?

[stryker]

HA! you cut out the column on the side that u had on your naga.
Good unit, same question.

[bloodreign]

#1It cannot occupy the same square as an existing unit, it merely can pass through.
#2You can only move on the PHASE intitation, it takes up an attack turn. You cannot phase-move-attack all in one turn
#3scout arrows will hit the shadowalker because he is 1/2 in physical and 1/2 in spirit world thus it will do only 1/2 damage to the shadow walker
#4If the shadowwalker could move 4 spaces unimpeded and attack diagonaly (which it does) that might be too powerful.
#5since it is 1/2 physical and 1/2 spirit a stone golems focus will only reward this unit with a 15% increase in armor when PHASED
#6The phase activation lasts for 2 of your future turns ie(turn 1 phase/move---wait----move/attack/phase ends)

and yes the "frost whore" still can do it's dirty deed (freeze) on this unit PHASED OR NOT!
Poison is still going to stun this unit but the damage is reduced (when phazed) barriers still work on this unit.
But the heal factor is cut to 6 if you are in PHASE mode.

Like it or not think of this, WHEN PHASED he can only do 9 (ROUNDED DOWN) blockable damage to opponents.That is a fair tradeoff to reach focus units or a weakened cleric.

[Hellblazer]

That's not too bad. I like the fact that you didn't just say that it could be invisible and would come out of it when hit. The halved damage and no blocking make it a great invisibility ability.

[shatterstar]

shouldnt the phased power be 9 (rounded down) or preferably 10(runded up)?

thats a pretty consistent set of conditions. the usage of an attack turn to phase kindf stunts its use, since the opponent can take preventive measures, but i guess thats a good thing, since it can penetrate well into a formation in that mode. good job.
