Maybe.
But not the "Fallen captain" because of his self-casting abilities.

Remember that he can drink blood (self-lifelink) and gives Bloodlust aura undeads. ALL undeads including enemies and himself.

This is another mounted unit. If it was actually an infantry it might be good.

How about removing bloodlust aura ability
Drop his attack by 2 so 11 to 9
Reduce speed by 1 so 5 to 4
Don't wanna rewrite this unit so I'm not sure what really needs fixing. Oh maybe drop the armor by 1 so 2 to 1

Nono. His main power is in his aura so it MUST stay.
I will think about stats later, afer implementation of unit types revamp.

Without aura he will becone a useless and ridicilously weak vampire.

Uhm. Why change name at first place if this unit is not a cavalry now?

I think "blood knight" is better name.
Ah. Also i can add another ability to him.

Blood is better because everyone knows what is blood. But blot knight... what he seeks? Inks? Mistakes in sentenses? "i" without dots?

Yea I want the blood name to stay, wasn't saying I didn't want it.
And what if instead of life link they can have an ability that takes a certain ( percentage ) amount from a unit called blot.
He could be really useful against large up units but really useless to small up units.
25%?
And the jokes....... :lol:

:lol: yea, exactly!

As for ability - lifelink is general name of this ability, the exact numbers of replenishing life and such can be different. But as for ability that will eat away % of health upon success is bad idea because some unique units with 200+ hp can be waaay to easy be downed to abyss with this.

Knight is a knight. With or without his mount.
As for me knight doesn't sound as cavalry unit.

But i am open for second part of name change suggestions and even suggest few as well:
Blood vanguard
Blood sentinel
Blood hungerer
Blood knight (current one)

But remember that few other units will have also different names (i have in plans chill knight, cursed knight, plague knight and they must have same name as this one so they will become than all vanguards/sentinels/hungerers/your choice/or stay knights).

It seems most people usually associate knights with Calvary.
