Raptor
The Raptor is a Secret melee unit from the Tribal faction. They are equipped with sharp teeth and claws. |
Location
On the Tribal Sandbox Map, you will find a raptor skull near a campfire on a shrine of sorts, on the bottom, the right side of the map. |
Characteristics
The Raptor is a bipedal animal with deadly teeth and claws. Agile and deadly, these speedy predators can easily run up to opposing units and maul them vigorously. Unfortunate units who got under the dinosaur will also get painfully trampled by their powerful legs.
The Raptor's main method of attack is their deadly bite, a swift snap on the enemy that can at times attach them to the mouth of sharp teeth that the Raptor has, allowing them to constantly attack instead of doing a bite and run. The bite has a short cooldown period after and attack. Trampling on the other hand will cause damage as long as the Raptor is stomping the unit with their hind legs; simply ramming will no cause any damage.
Occasionally, the Raptor may be excited and hop around. While it looks derpy, their bounciness makes them unpredictable to hit even when they are not running. However, it also makes them slower to accelerate, reducing their movement speed considerably.
Appearance
It is a raptor, with what appear to be feathers and a tongue corresponding to its team's colors. It always looks like its lying down when it attacks a unit. The end of its tail which tapers down has feathers on either side of it. It also has spots near its spine and a tongue color corresponding to the color of its team. It also has greenish-brownish skin when looking from certain angles.

Strategies
Usage
The Raptor is a cheap, fast, and spammable unit. It jumps and is the key for breaking tight formations like the Phalanx by outnumbering them. It is weak in terms of health but still packs a punch. They are fast and deadly creatures, trained to be the perfect hunters of ranged units and units without armor. However, it is susceptible to ranged Units and melee units that survive its initial attack.
Encounters
This unit is encountered in the Wild West (Campaign) and the Fantasy Good (Campaign). |

Trivia
- The average Raptor runs in 4 steps per second.
- The Raptor has a slower acceleration than a Wobbler and will have to catch up if both has the same top speed.
- It is confirmed in response to a comment on Landfall Game's YouTube "Raptors," video to be based on Utahraptors, a raptor that is close in height to a Human being.
- There appear to be two different types of Raptors so far: A Utahraptor and a smaller dinosaur that looks like a Velociraptor, which is brown.
- Possessing a Raptor and biting a large dead Unit, such as an Ice Giant will cause the Raptor to be pulled into the ground when the unit disappears by sinking into the ground.
