Slowing weapon (passive, is already ingame) slows target by 1 tile on hit, non-stackable with itself, stackable with normal slowing by elf druids.

Windwalk - transformation ability, turns unit invisible, lowers armor, speed and range (for ranged units) but doubles base damage.

[General Brave]

Moon Warrior? First sounds like a good idea, but doesn't seem like to be a elf. Sounds like a complete different race that is from the Moon. Mainly human except they are from the Moon. Or maybe a religious order or cult

[makazuwr32]

No. Just inspired by Night elves' Huntress from WC3. She had after upgrade chackrum ability which adds up to 3 additional targets with normal damage of hutress (YEs that unit was night elven woman).
Of course we can rename "Moon Warrior" (for example "Forest defender" or "Wind blademaster"). Name is WiP. Main here is concept.

[General Brave]

Still gives me a idea about Cult.

[makazuwr32]

Each religion is a cult a bit.
How about name "Elf Warmage"?

[makazuwr32]

Updated name, Training source.

[makazuwr32]

Reworked completely idea.

[Sunrise Samurai]

These look quite interesting. Only question is why they are all excluded from dodge arrows?

[makazuwr32]

because they can get "Magic shield" passive which just reduces ranged and magic damage by half.
i don't like idea to give them both dodge ranged and this shield. They will become too powerful against archers.

[Sunrise Samurai]

I guess I can see that. I think it would be better to do dodge and let the magic shield perhaps give 100% immunity to magic damage, thus being a good counter to area damage spells. Maybe make it an active spell, duration 2 to require them to avoid attacking to keep it.

[makazuwr32]

i want them to be more though units for elves vs elves fights and other fights where enemy has great amount of archers/antiarchers so that even master troll headhunter can't one-shot elf hunter (archer) and needs to spend more of its actions to kill him.
also less randomness for them.
I also think tham maybe make this passive levelable (2-3 tiers) and start with lower stats (for example if 3 tiers than i think about this: 20/35/50% ranged damage reduce).
I don't like idea to give them immune to magic damage.

And remember that they still take full damage from catapult (its damage is considered as melee)

[Alexander82]

Make them single suggestions.

[Sunrise Samurai]

He can't, because the suggestion was to make these like AoS Roman auxiliaries. Randomly created from the same production.

[makazuwr32]

They all are designed as roman auxillaries for elves in AoF.
4 different units from 1 production.

Also updated stats a bit, changed first one into anti-archer, added explanation of how must work Magic shield and what is "Slowing weapon".

[JustGoodPlayer]

As i think if they will be different units and not as auxillaries one production for one random unit of 4 these they will be more powerful just because you can choose which one you want to.
And because of that they can be trained in Hunter's hall.
Remember that humans don't have unique buildings for imperials.

TO JUSTICE

sorry for the delay of HOJ's service

[makazuwr32]

Ayush thanks for image! 1/4. Looks good. But can you try to add some runic symbols on armor? To symbolize magic shield.
Also updated stats, lowered their health so elven sentinel will still be more powerful.

[Ayush Tiwari]

Ok,thanks,made a quick try

[makazuwr32]

Looks awesome. As for elven hunter it is ready i think.

[Ayush Tiwari]

Tried magic animation....(with elf race symbolised shield)

[LordOfAles]

Out of curiosity, aren't they supposed to be in line? Like:

x x x x x x

Instead of

x x x
x x x

[Ayush Tiwari]

Of that,which extension is needed?.anim,.gif or .png?

[LordOfAles]

For animated version .gif

For version with multiple static images .png

[General Brave]

I can make some of these perhaps.

[Ayush Tiwari]

But Javeliners have less attack with more bonus against archers and dragons

[General Brave]

Where's the Axe Men.

[Ayush Tiwari]

Brave:There was no axemen in this pack

Javeliner......(if it looks as a good start,then I will make the animation too

[makazuwr32]

Maybe a bit better javelin and shield and it is ready.

[LordOfAles]

It needed shading, btw experimented with javelin

[makazuwr32]

Great work LOA!
Now it looks as i wanted it to look.
