Thunderbird

Dwelling

Thunderbird is recruited in Upg. Cliff Nest.

Upgrading

This is the upgraded version of Roc.

Description

Rocs and Thunderbirds are the only flying units available at Stronghold towns. When Thunderbirds attack, there is a 20% chance thunderbolts will strike their target, delivering 10x the number of attacking Thunderbirds in additional damage.

Comments

The Thunderbird is the fastest unit of Stronghold. On top of decent combat statistics, the Thunderbird is useful for grabbing the first turn in combat(allowing the hero to cast Expert Haste) and flying over walls in sieges.
