The Petrifying attack of Basilisks and Greater Basilisks and the Stone gaze of Medusas and Medusa Queens are special abilities with identical effects. Immediately after a melee attack from a Medusas or Basilisk, there is a 20% change that the effect is triggered. If so, the defending unit completely skips its turn for the remainder of the current combat round and the two combat rounds thereafter. The effect is cancelled when the affected unit is attacked. Units that are petrified or turned to stone receive only 50% damage from melee and ranged attacks, but retaliate at full strength. The effect can be removed with Cure or Dispel.
