THE POPULOUS BIBLE
C.6 Firewarrior
Firewarriors are created by training Braves or any other Follower in the Firewarrior Training Hut. These Followers are slower and weaker in hand to hand combat than Warriors. They do, however, have the ability to cast fireballs and they can target buildings or the enemy followers from a distance. Like warriors, they will not perform any menial tasks, such as construction, and are best suited to Guarding or Fighting. Give them range advantage by placing them on hills or in towers, balloons or boats.
Firewarriors can be stronger if in groups and all fire at the same time. This can be done by moving them closer to the target and then blasting the target at a close distance. This is used as a more riskier, but more successful way of killing the enemy shaman.
Firewarriors biggest counters are the warriors and some spells. It only takes 2 shots from a firewarrior to kill a shaman inside a vehicle. The shots from the firewarriors are not that deadly, but if the enemy unit gets shot into the air, he will fall and take aditional damage! In online gaming, firewarriors are usually used inside towers or in hills. When not inside towers, they are usually better when patrolling in a certain way - usually 2 or 3 together. Firewarriors in front huts can also be a really effective defense against both troops and shaman atacks!
A firewarrior will die when hit by a good direct blast.
Firewarriors are also really funny when your tribe wins the level: they will shoot fireballs to the skies out of joy!
The firewarrior's worldview symbol is a square.
