Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

Unicorns and War Unicorns have adequate skills in comparison to other 6th level creatures. Basic Unicorns are moderately fast, while War Unicorns have speed 9, which is very high for a melee unit unable to fly. While they have mediocre damage capability, they are among the sturdiest and cheapest given their good overall features. Especially the blinding ability makes them fierce opponents, and the aura of magic resistance is helpful from time to time. For example, when a mass damage spell (e.g. Fireball or Meteor Shower) is cast on multiple Unicorn stacks which are adjacent to each other, there's an opportunity that at least one of them will resist the spell. A good tactic is to split them in smaller stacks and attack an enemy unit until the blind effect is applied. Also, you may use only War Unicorns in your secondary hero's army (it may be Clancy, who will give them brilliant speed 10, or Gem, who will heal them fast with First Aid Tent) so as to rush through the map.
