Wintertooth Lords

Marauder Chieftain

Marauder Chieftains are a daunting sight, brooding hulks of muscle and hair whose bodies are covered in the scars and trophies of battle. They are typically a great warrior, subservient but loyal to their tribe’s king, pledging his devoted service in return for hunting grounds, warriors, treasure, and thralls. When the horns of war sound, they are expected to come forward and lend the command of his warriors for the cause. Chieftains are the most battle-hardened killers of all Marauders; products of a people so steeped in conflict that, even in times of prosperity, they will fight to the death for the honour of leading the next raid.

Abilities

• Wounds
  Even the greatest foes can be laid low with terrible injuries, and the greater the damage done, the less able they will be to effectively continue the fray.

Attributes

• Encourage
  This unit provides a leadership bonus to nearby allies. Units within range of both the Lord's aura and an encouraging unit will receive the larger of the two bonuses.
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Shielded
  Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Melee Expert
  Melee Experts might have a very strong melee attack or melee defence, or high values in both. Some also have melee-focused skills like [[img:ui/battle ui/ability_icons/charge_defense.png]]Charge Defence. Use them to counter other strong melee units. When facing them, it is best to take them out before they can enter melee.
