Lunar Mantis

(image)

Having killed and eaten enough smaller victims, lunar bugs conduct a metamorphosis that transforms them to the appearance of their new namesake. The Lunar Mantis is now in its mature form and possesses razor-sharp claws, using them to feast on birds and small mammals. Already as big as a cat, this arthropod continues growing in size ecdysis after ecdysis, kill after kill...

Special Notes: In woodlands, this unit’s ambush skill renders it invisible to enemies unless it is immediately adjacent or has revealed itself by attacking. This unit’s skill at skirmishing allows it to ignore enemies’ zones of control and thus move unhindered around them. During battle, this unit can drain life from victims to renew its own health. Using a charging attack doubles both damage dealt and received; this does not affect defensive retaliation. This unit’s marksmanship gives it a high chance of hitting targeted enemies, but only on the attack.
