Thunderbirds have special ability lightning strike, which has 20% probability to occur after the stack have attacked, including [[retaliation]]s. When the stack attacks, the lightning strike occurs before the enemy has a chance to retaliate. If successful, the lightning strike deals additional damage for the amount of ten times the number of attacking Thunderbirds. The thunderbolts have the same visual effect as the spell [[Lightning Bolt]], and the special attack is also counted as one in terms of immunities and Golems' [[spell damage reduction]] (e.g. if 14 Thunderbirds attack a stack of [[Diamond Golem]]s with a lightning strike, they will do 7 damage instead of 140 because Diamond Golems have 95% spell damage resistance). Since the attack is considered to be the Lightning Bolt spell, it also deals extra damage to {{Cnu|Air Elemental|Storm Elemental|name=Air and Storm Elementals}}.
When the stack attacks, the there is a 20% chance that a lightning strike occurs before the enemy has a chance to retaliate. If if occurs, the lightning strike deals damage equal to ten times the number of attacking Thunderbirds. The lightning strike has the same visual effect as the spell [[Lightning Bolt]], and the game also treats it as such in terms of damage increases/resistances/etc. See the [[Lightning Bolt]] page for a list of things that affect this ability.
