Shadow

(image)

Staying hidden safe in the shadows of the caves, they will hit you when you least expect it. Despite their frailty, they can inflict great damage either by thrusting their daggers in the back of their target or by shooting fast a lot of bolts from their crossbow.

Special Notes: In underground terrain (except lit underground), this unit's ambush skill renders it invisible to enemies unless it is immediately adjacent or has revealed itself by attacking. If there is an enemy of the target on the opposite side of the target while attacking it, this unit may backstab, inflicting double damage by creeping around behind that enemy.
