The Maw, a beast troop of the Damned Covenant

Damned Covenant · Beast · Signature

Maw

It is not summoned so much as let in, and the letting in is the expensive part.

These are the Maw's own figures, the ones the Armory prints. In battle the Damned Covenant's trait is added on top: +3% speed · −4% range · −7% damage · −13% health. Range, reach and speed are in the battlefield's own units.

Special powers

Strong and weak

Strong: Bodies, holding.

Weak: Reach, pierce.

As a beast troop, it deals extra damage to Levy (×1.3), Ranged (×1.3) and Support (×1.4) troops.

Ranged (×1.2), Caster (×1.2) and Construct (×1.3) troops deal extra damage to it.

Raising it

The Maw comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 3,250 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters a Maw every 2 minutes 12 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 1 minute 40 seconds at level 2 and 1 minute 9 seconds at level 3.

Upgrades cost 2,350 gold to level 2 and 10,700 gold to level 3. Every level also makes the troops it musters hit harder and last longer.

Before it can be raised at all it has to be unlocked in the Armory, for 2,050 gold — gold carried between battles, earned by fighting them.
