Unfortunately a sandstorm is hardly invisible. This being said, if it has flying, decent health, and high pierce armor while in sandstorm form, it would be a great way to exchange it's own turns for speed, rather than rely on wagons. It also helps cross mountains or water.

But if it can transform to sandstorm with decent health and armor with this speed + cross water and hill this would be too OP for me

So speed 4. Remember it is still vulnerable when transformed, with no way to defend itself. Especially against units that hit flying for melee damage (elf dragon, ettins, catapult, etc.)

Besides, it can't act the turn it changes back anyway​, so it's easily killed then

Hi,
Mummy into Sandstorm?
Kinda doesent makes sense.
Do you gave any refference where that happends (movie book whatever).

I kinda more like some kinf of Sand Soldier spawned by the mummy since thats some epic stuff happening in plently of films.
