BEAST UNIT

Just thought of this idea and i think this could be a unique and beneficial unit (while being balanced) and would fit into tao quite nicely.

This unit will be a beast unit, most likely it will be an infiltrator type unit that will take similar roles to (beast rider,assassin,mudd golem) it will serve in the same vein as these units, but with a slight (balanced and acceptable) twist.


THE UNIQUE FACTOR WILL BE EXPLAINED HERE:

Basicaly when this unit scores a successful hit on an opponent doing damage, all units surrounding the hit unit (1 tile surrounding) will take unblockable damage.(itself being exempt) we will call this SPLASH DAMAGE


(unfortunatly your units are affected as well)
The SPLASH damage will be halved from original unit damage and then dispersed equaly to the surrounding units

So if you hit one unit for 20 dmg and there is 1 unit surrounding that unit ...the splash damage is 10 (reduceable, unblockable)

if there are 2 units surrounding 5 dmg

3 units 3 dmg.........


OK for the sake of beast unit i will make it a snake man.

Snake man stats

HP: 36
POWER: 20 (SPLASH DAMAGE ON SUCCESSFUL HIT)
ARMOR: 18%
BLOCKING: 70%
MOVEMENT: 4
RECOVERY: 1
RANGE:1


So maybe a good unit idea? it mixes a few units attributes together and is very versatile and reasonably hardy.. perhaps a reduction in the blocking to 65% would make this unit prime?


thoughts anyone?

Naw. It looks like it has to target and hit a unit. Not just a thump anywhere on the map like mud quake.

The return of Jesus and a new unit in TAO might happen at the same time.
