Special Features Descriptions:

Fearless – this unit is immune to the “Fearsome” ability of other units. This unit will not break during combat, and does not suffer any negative penalties as a result of facing a “Fearsome” unit. In addition, Fearless units improve an army’s chance at maintaining morale during combat. Fearless units may choose to withdraw from a combat, and are not required to continue the fight.

Fearsome – this unit inspires awe or terror in the hearts of their enemies. When a Fearsome unit is the aggressor and engages in battle (but does not defend), it possesses an aura of near invincibility and opposing units may suffer negative effects to their defense rating. The more Fearsome units engaged in battle, the greater the chance of breaking a defending army’s morale and scattering them to the four winds. Fearsome units are not immune to other “Fearsome” units.

Improved Attack Rating – this unit is much stronger on the offensive side of combat, but suffers slightly for its great ferocity in battle on the defensive side.

Improved Defense Rating – this unit is much sturdier on the defensive side of battle, and focuses away from being an offensive weapon.

Battle Rage/Berzerk Ability – this unit is pledged to battle, and will not stop until the battle is over and no one is left standing. This is a tactical ability (discussed in more detail in the Combat section of the rules). Units with this ability strike with great ferocity, and their attack rating improves as the combat continues into the fourth round. The ability lasts until the end of the combat, even if the battle is not resolved when the turn ends. Units with this ability become weaker on the following turn while they recover their depleted strength. The number in parentheses represents the defense rating for that unit during the following turn. These units do not break if they fail a morale check, but must remain fighting to the bitter end.

Pursuit – only mounted units possess this ability. This is a tactical ability (discussed in more detail in the Combat section of the rules). Mounted units may pursue retreating enemy units in the fourth round of combat.

Regenerate – a unit with this feature automatically improves from Depleted to Regular status if it survived a combat on the previous turn.

Healing – this is a non-combat ability whereby the unit chooses to heal either itself or another unit in the same territory. The unit healed improves from Depleted to Regular status if it survived the combat. The unit using this ability cannot attack in the same turn after “Healing” another unit, but it can still defend itself during that same turn. In addition, the army cannot “Move” during this Healing phase.

Summon – a unit with this feature chooses to Summon a creature or being from the surrounding countryside or another plane of existence to do battle against their enemies. The summoned creature appears in the following combat round and will fight or defend the territory for that turn. The unit using this ability cannot fight nor defend during the combat round in which it is used as the incredible amount of energy and concentration required for the summoning is great indeed! The number of creatures brought into play by this ability does not count towards the maximum number of units that can be created in a territory (see below) in a given turn.
