Juggernaut

The Juggernaut is a unit belonging to The Empire.

Background

Behold: the fearsome Juggernaut. This giant of a man has the strength of ten... and just as many brain cells. The Juggernaut is a burly warrior shielded within a full suit of heavy armor. By himself he is the most resilient normal unit in the game and is able to withstand a prodigious amount of punishment before he is defeated. He specializes in the disruption of enemy attacks and mitigating damage by actively tanking on the front lines – however his own damage output is fairly low. Outside of battle he will gladly hit things with his hammer (his best [perhaps only] skill) in the Foundry.

Passive Traits

• Hard Boiled: The Juggernaut is able to walk through lava without taking damage, after spending a short amount of time in lava or taking a large amount of fire damage over a short duration, the Juggernaut will become “cooked” and take an additional 100% damage from all types until the effect wears off.
• Aggression: Any unit damaged by the Juggernaut will be taunted for a brief period.

Active Abilities

• Charge: The Juggernaut charges forward dealing damage and knocking back any enemies he collides with.
• Shockwave: The Juggernaut slams the ground with his hammer, lightly damaging and reducing the movement speed of nearby enemies for a few seconds.
• Brace: The Juggernaut takes a defensive stance, sacrificing movement speed but gaining significantly increased defenses. This ability can not be used while under the effects of Hard Boiled.

Trivia

• The Juggernaut is the most resilient "normal" unit in the game, and is also one of the few units that can wade through lava.
