List of Buildings for Chaos:
List of Technologies & Abilities for Order:
Effect: Swordwrath will glow red and increase attack and movement speed for a short period of time, however the each time rage is used the unit will lose small portion of their own health. Note : You will not lose health to the point of death when using rage.
Effect: Speartons will move into a defensive stance will shields in front, they will take less damage and perform the shield bash ability if researched. Click again to toggle out of the Shield Wall. Note : A line of speartons teamed up with archidons can be very powerful, use in combination with Shield bash to unleash the full potential of the Spearton army. Note : There is no cost and the ability is instant.
Effect: Can be performed only from Shield Wall - Speartons will smash back the enemy with their shields. *Speartons HOLD!!
Effect: Archidons will fire a single flaming arrow with extra range and damage, costing small amount of mana. Note : Use this to out range a defensive opponent and force them out to battle.
Effect: A passive ability. With each consecutive strike the Shadowrath perform on a target the damage increases up for 5 times. Note: This ability does not require researching or activation as the unit already has it, and it's always toggled on. Note : In a skirmish it may be tempting to run away because of the speed of the Shadowrath, but factor in the increasing damage and you may surprise the enemy at winning what may appear to be at first a losing battle. Note : Use Shadowrath in combination with Meric's to keep you healed as this ability benifits from the longevity of a fight.
Effect: Once you activate this ability the Shadowrath become cloaked and untargetable by attacks. The speed of the unit is slightly decreased and costs mana. The next attack out of Shinobi will do increased damage and inflict poisin on the enemy. Note: Use this ability simply for scouting the enemy base. Note : Verses Order use Shinobi to assassinate the Meric's so your Poison can not be cured without them running home. Note : Versus Chaos remember that Poison is automatically cured over time however still effective because they do not have the option of an instant cure. Note : Use the speed of the Shadowrath for a hit and run to poisin the miners and escape.
Effect: Same Effect as Shinobi Level 1 however the next attack out of cloak will do massive increased damage in addition to inflicting poison. *Use this ability to get behind enemy lines and take out the powerful spellcasters. *Be warned that while you can not be attacked while cloaked you can still be partially seen and spell damage and Explosion damage will still affect you. *You can kill lower health units in one blow.
Effect: The Meric will cast a quick spell to heal a single unit at a time for a large amount of health iInstantly. and costs mana. Note: The Meric always has the heal ability and is always toggled on. Note: The Meric has very low attack damage and should be used primarily for healing and curing.
Effect: The Meric will cast a quick spell to cure a single poisoned unit at a time costing mana with each cure, once researched cure is always toggled on. Note: Versus Order you can only be poisoned by Magikill's Poison Spray ability and Shadowrath's Shinobi so it may be best not to waste money researching this ability unless you suspect the enemy will have these units in play. Note: Versus Chaos race this becomes an important ability that is worth researching early. Each of the Chaos Deads projectiles infect the enemy with poison and can be especially cumbersome without an instant cure. Note : You can also cure yourself by garrisoning your units. 10. Magikill Effect: A targetable cast spell causing a large area effect explosion that damages multiple units, and costs mana to perform. Magikill start with this ability and does not require research. Note: Use this in massive battles to get maximum units damaged. Note: Blow up bombers before they blow up you.
11. Magikill Effect: A directional cast spell that sprays multiple units infecting them with poison which also casts through units costing mana to perform. Note: Magikill have long cooldowns on their spells so getting the extra spell will really boost the effectiveness of the Magikill.
12. Magikill Effect: A targetable powerful Wall of Electrictricity doing constant damage to anyone standing too close costing mana to perform. Note: Use the wall for offensive or defensive purpose. But always try to target multiple units. Note: Use this in combination with Miner Wall to bait the enemy into attacking your wall, then cast at the wall as the enemy is forced to bunch up while attacking. Note: When facing another Electric wall try to get the Enemy to cast their spell then run and wait until the wall dissipates before re-engaging as the Spell has a long cooldown time and they have wasted their spell.
13. Allbowtross Effect: Allbowtross fire flaming blots with increased damage. Note: Dominate the air with this upgrade but be aware of poison from deads. Note: Unlike Archidons arrows, Bolts will do bonus damage to armored units.
14. Giant Growth Level 1 & Giant - Growth Level 2 Effect: Your Giant Will Increase In size and Health Dramatically.

List of Technologies & Abilities for Chaos:
Effect: All Chaos units benefit from a passive heal and cure rate over time. This does not require research or cost.
