The
Strike Back is an attack that is nice to have but is not essential to win a battle. What happens is that when a group of
Units with this caracteristic is attacked, the
Units in that group who survive, will attack automatically attack without
using any
Movement.
But this attack has some limitations, not all attacks are likely to be counter attacked, the next images
help you to understand these limitations:
The
Praetorian is an unit that has the ability to
Strike Back and in all examples, we will show you attacks on
Praetorian.
In the first image
Praetorian does not
Strike Back because they are being attacked by
Spider that have the ability to [Paralyze],
the
Praetorian will not
Strike Back because they are paralyzed.
In the second image
Praetorian are being attacked by
Eagle, but
Eagle and
Praetorian have
Raptor between them, and so
Eagle will
use the
Catapult, wich will block the [Pretorian
Strike Back ability.
The third attack also does not cause
Strike Back because the
Kamikaze are not frontally attacking the
Praetorian.
Finally, the fourth attack is the only one that will cause
Strike Back, because the
Raptor are frontally attacking
Praetorian
and do not have any ability to avoid the
Strike Back.
There are still two other situation in wich the
Strike Back is not activated. In the case of the unit with
Strike Back
does not have enough
Range to
Strike Back. For example if
Praetorian are attacked by
Nova in a
Range of 5, they will not respond
to the attack because they have only
Range 3. The last situation where the
Strike Back is not activated, is when the unit
(eg:
Praetorian) with the ability of
Strike Back is reached by
Rebound.
