KEY MECHANICS & DESIGN


Battlefury The Warsong earned their name from their fearsome battle cries and hymns. To represent this, the Battlefury ability, shared by all the Warsong combat units, enhances their offensive capabilities in battle, increasing their power when they fight side by side.	Warlike Culture As a nomadic clan of fierce and brutal warriors, it’s only natural that their infrastructure is also adapted to their lifestyle, so in this way the Warsong clan obtains food directly from their military buildings. Also, their tier system resembles the original but instead of upgrading their main building, they must research 2 levels of Mobilization at the War Halls.	High-mobility Focus Warsong clan favors a mobile and swift style of combat. Their units largely adhere to a playstyle that benefits from speed and maneuverability, excelling at raiding and hit-and-run tactics. Additionally, their Supply Kodos allow them to quickly deploy a mobile drop-off point for lumber, as well as generate a constant source of healing once deployed.


Pathfinders The Warsong are not only fierce warriors, but also excellent as scouts and vanguard forces. Pathfinders are secondary workers and good early explorers and base defenders. Their labor is required for construction and repairs. As the game progresses, they will also be in charge of operating the siege weapons.	Crude Siege Weaponry Warsong siege weapons require to be operated by Pathfinders so they can attack. In exchange, with more operators, they can attack faster than other siege units, laying waste upon unprepared enemies. Further upgrades also allow Pathfinders to repair siege units while garrisoned inside.	Mannoroth's Blood By drinking the blood of Mannoroth, the Warsong Clan binds their will to the Burning Legion. Transforms Warsong Orcs into Chaos Orcs. Spiritual Guides and Elder Sages will be transformed into Bloody Tricksters and Demonists, empowering their previously shamanistic abilities with enhanced demonic powers at the cost of a slight increase in mana costs.
