New Unit: Attack Dog

[Capt.Sandman]

I would think that an attack dog would be great to add because it would stick with the timeline and scare some people.It should be as fast as a knight and as strong as a swordsman.

It could be a upgrade of a scout but i dont think much people will use it.

[Capt.Sandman]

I guess that would be true, but at least the scout would actually fight after being upgraded right?

[Darkknight]

But scouts are not used for fighting

In the PC game Stronghold Crusader attack dogs are auto released from cage when enemy unit is at a certain distance I like your idea of scout dog upgrade?

[silentz27]

nice idea\

I would love a tech upgrading the scout dog. I think I am a rare one that uses him regularly.

1 spartan beats 1000 dogs

I like the idea thoug, scouts deffinately need a buff of some sort. I have never used them once in a serious game.

Then we should move this topic as Unit Upgrade and not as a new unit to be implemented. I would use that upgrade right away and perhaps increase the priority of scout to be used (instead of 3 turn light cavalries). The upgrade cost should be less like 3-4 turns since its just simple training (Scout/Dog Combat training). That won't be Op coz Persuasion,Stealing,Town Patrol are also similar in costs (3-4 turns). The attack is fair enough (4 atk) and this time they should have bonuses on basic infantry, (archer,swordsman,pikeman) but that doesn't mean they can 1-hit them like knights.


2-3 hits is justified, just like wolves. Still, they can't capture an entire TC so don't worry just stay indoors

I'm starting to really like this idea. ^^ would be perfect I think
