Terracotta Sentinel
The fearless stone giants stand guard across the length and breadth of the Celestial Empire, awaiting the Dragon Emperor's call.Terracotta Sentinels are creations born of the Dragon’s mastery of the Elemental Winds, each one a towering animated statue fashioned in the form of a great warrior. Legend has it that these Sentinels are the gigantic soldiers of an army built by the Dragon Emperor thousands of years ago, when Chaos threatened to overwhelm the empire. Since then, they have been left scattered across Cathay, waiting to be called to war once more. Once given orders, a Terracotta Sentinel will not falter in its duty, relentless carrying out its last commands until the task is complete.

Strengths & Weaknesses
- Armoured
Armoured units can block damage from any source apart fromArmour-Piercing damage.
- Harmony: Yang
This unit counts as a Yang unit and gains increased melee defence and leadership when near Yin units. - Cumbersome
This unit's attacks are slower than average due to its massive, lumbering form. - Armour-Piercing
The damage ofarmour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
