A snakeman that spits acid that melts buildings, non and flesh and blood units. The acid effect is similiar to poisoned but unhealable.

it would be nice if you add more ability

Stats?

By unhealable you mean that you can't heal its damage or you can't just heal the effect?

he say that the acid or the effect cant heal (endless) The effect will disappeared after the death of enemy who affected of it.

Well, its like an infinite poison then? Well then u should make it with cost 3-4 and stats of a cost 2 unit, or something like that. Else, its gonna be tooo op.

my suggestion is what if this unit attacks 3 times (3x) with acid effect on enemy then the acid effect on enemy will be permanently is in it.

Cost=4
Speed=2
Power=1
Ressist=0
Armor=1
P.armor=1
Action=1
Built in mega buildings.

I don't like permanent effects. Ok a stronger effect that affect alsowooden units

I also have another version: not permanent effect but can only dissappear by itselves.

Stats are way too low

Cost=3
Speed=4
Power=6
Resist=3
Armor=1
P.armor=1
Action=1
Built in mega buildings.

Sounds a bit better but i still dont like the unit general idea. Imo its acid shouldnt poison, but should do great damage to buildings. In short, id turn this unit into a "siege" unit.

My concept for siege version:
Giant snake that spit acidic balls to melt down buildings. Acts like the scalefolks catapults that also give buildings poison-like effect.

stats: (upgrade gem basic)
cost:5
hp:30
attack:5
speed:2
sight:4
range:4
action turn:1
armor:1
pierce:2 (acidic skin)
spell resistance:0%
builders: snake pit, mega building
Abilities:
-Permanent Acid

description: a giant snake with acid body can spits acid really deadly & can melt anything.

has bonus against structures 200% (-10), mega buildings 2000% (-100)

What does permanent acid mean? Btw, cost is too high. Speed should be 3 and cost should be 4.

@skelogonsans: samuelch said this is a seige unit; mutant unit so the speed 2 and attack 5 is good.

Then raise its hp and/or def, or else it will be easily destroyed with that speed.

I still dont get acid idea... is it just a poison that affects buildings, or what?

yes, but this is acid liquid spitting, poison is poisoning the enemies. acid is melting buildings

Then we need some consistency. In other proposals acid is treated as a stronger poison, so we shouldn't make both effect from the same source...

Ok, tell me if im wrong:

Then acid is simply like a poison that affects buildings?

Btw: image is cool.

Guys I still dont get acid idea..

when poison archer attacks structure, the poison of arrow not effect to a structure , only units can affected the poison while the acud spitter affect only structure and units but the units gets affected but weaker damage.

So...... it "poisons" strutcures and lowers units' attack?

It is like far this way. I think it should have a specific effect.
For example acid might be like a corrosion to armor and might give a temporary -1/-1 to armor to both units and buildings (it is jut an idea)

very good!
