The Raider is a unit of the Serpent Clan.
Overview
Life amongst the Serpent is not easy, and there are some who - by virtue of laziness, misfortune, or general unpleasantness - find no craft or trade by which to earn a living. These embittered men often become cruel Raiders, whose trademark is to pillage remote towns by night, then set them ablaze to distract pursuers. Spying out enemies through tangled forests is second nature to a Raider.
Intelligent Serpent generals find uses for such men, pressing them into service in exchange for pardoning their crimes. Brandishing torches and lanterns, they are unsuited to single combat, but matchless at reducing enemy fortresses to cinders.
Usage
The Raider at first is an underwhelming unit, their are not even good at setting buildings on fire as it takes far too long. Fully upgraded and in made of 2 or 3 men, can wreck havoc upon an enemy village as along as it isn't raining. Also despite their frail looks, their are an excellent melee unit provided the enemy unit doesn't have an cutting weapons, use the auto attack to force them into melee combat.
Their battle gear also befits their elusive nature, the Caltrops battle gear can be useful providing a quick cover for an escape and can be very devastating in narrow paths while the Brush Fire battle gear can remove any trees that can be used as potential ambush spots, they can also be used to devastate the enemy clan's rice fields, even more devastating if it takes a long time to grow new rice.
Battle Gear
Caltrops | Stamina: No Cost |
Brush Fire | Stamina: 45% | ||
Requirements: Metal Shop | Requirements: Thieves' Guild | ||||
The Metal Shop manufactures these wicked four-pointed stars fashioned so that one spike always points up. Pursuers intent on revenging themselves upon Raiders, and careless of the ground beneath their feet, are likely to find themselves crippled for life. A single Raider can carry no more than 10 caltrops at any one time. | Raiders are vicious fighters and plunderers, but not always brilliant strategists. The cunning ones frequently become professional Thieves, learning to set brush fires in rice fields and forests that destroy precious resources and further cover their tracks. |
