Basilisk/1.03.25

Basilisks are missile units.

=Factions=

Minotaurs
A unique (and comparatively cheap) unit for the Minotaurs, giving them the ability to gather Stone much faster. This allows the Minotaurs to produce Gnolls en-masse and construct the particularly Stone-heavy buildings easier such as Arenas. The cold damage Basilisks provide is potentially quite a powerful weapon. The resistance to slashing, very high armor and resistance stats allow it to tank plenty of combat action (but keep in mind their vulnerability to crushing).

Benefits from Training and Eagle Eye researches.

Ssrathi
If the Ssrathi already have good anti-air and missile units, they do need stone for their dinosaurs. The cold damage Basilisks provide is potentially quite a powerful weapon. The resistance to slashing, very high armor and resistance stats allow it to tank plenty of combat action (but keep in mind their vulnerability to crushing). Except when Pegasi are near, they make for a good front line in anti-air squads, enduring the wrath of enemy fliers while these are burned alive by the snakepriests in the rear.
