Creatures

In BattleLore, monstrous Creatures are not just a figment of the imagination of frightened peasants. Fortunately, they are just as rare as they are dangerous.

On the battlefield, a Creature is represented by a single figure, and recognizable by its distinctive Banner shape.

This single figure is considered a unit, for gameplay purposes, and blocks line of sight, but it is neither a foot unit nor a mounted unit. Therefore, any Tactic Command card that applies specifically to a foot or mounted unit will not apply to a Creature. For example, a Creature cannot participate in a Mounted Charge.

Like troop units, Creatures may not move onto or through occupied hexes.

Unless specified otherwise on the Creature’s Summary card, Creatures move and battle like similar banner-colored foot troops, and use the same number of battle dice in combat. Creatures are also subject to the same terrain movement and combat restrictions.
