Radiant Glaive
The Radiant Glaive is a ranged unit from the Fantasy Good faction. They are equipped with the Radiant Glaive Throw and the Radiant Glaive Shield. |
Characteristics
The Radiant Glaive is equipped with a shield that protects them from most incoming projectiles as well as a throwing glaive. The glaive inflicts low damage and its projectile can bounces between units, acting as a less powerful version of Zeus. The number it can bounce depends on the enemy's unit weight; the higher it is, the less it will bounce.
Appearance
The Radiant Glaive has a golden square shaped helmet decorated with a team colored strand that pokes out the back, gold and team colored diamond shapes, the latter over the former, placed at the front. It has a team colored vest trimmed with gold, a baggy white undershirt with uneven sleeves, golden cuffs to go with them, and a cape of the same color draped over the back of its vest with a singular gold line running along the bottom of it. Over its legs it wears team colored pants with golden colors scattered on it, a half diamond shape made at the start of them and two lines of the same color trimmed at the knees and a third down the shins. Lastly, it dons short white shoes with a singular golden band each that have a diamond attachment on both sides.

Usage
If you want to max out its full potential, then its best that you try to use these things in groups. The glaive will usually bounce to the unit that has the least distance between it.
Radiant Glaives are essentially cheaper versions of Zeus, with the Glaives acting similar to the lightning being able to chain and hit multiple units at once. As such, it is noticeably very effective against hordes, with several Radiant Glaives able to eliminate many hordes. Notably, unlike other ranged units, it has a small shield, meaning you can use it against other ranged units as well, although some will inevitably hit. Additionally, Radiant Glaives have a melee attack with their shield, able to defend itself from units. In general, the Radiant Glaive is somewhat versatile, having excellent anti-horde capabilities, having semi-ranged unit protection, and being able to defend itself.
Counter
Using Samurai or other projectile deflecting units is a great way to deal with them. Using tough and giant units like The King and Mammoth are also good options as the Glaives don't affect them much, although the knockback may be a hindrance. Distraction units like the Wheelbarrow actually work against the Radiant Glaives as well, as the glaives move slowly and thus can avoid and distract them, allowing other units to eliminate them.
