Steel Choriote
The Choriote has gained even stronger defenses: 50% defense on all terrain. They also can now leech energy from enemies using their extremely weak Battery Pulse attack. The Choriote also has a simpler version of the machine learning protocol exhibited by the sentients, and it is able to upgrade its shields periodically according to need.
Special Notes: This unit has an attack which can only be used in defense. This unit drains energy with some of its attacks, using it to replenish its own energy. This drain is most effective against mechanical units and has no effect on the undead. Trolls are more resistant than most living beings. This unit has an electric attack which, if it hits an enemy unit, will halve that unit's movement at the beginning of its next turn.
