Alright I got this idea about a wierd new skill called a kamakazi.
Something where a minion blows itself up and destroys or heavily damage the opposing minion/s as well.
Could be a really good idea for a multi minion team with weak attack.
Attack power could be based on health level, hence, involving health as an attack option.
On a one-on-one basis the minion could only etch out a draw, since the minion self-destructs but... like defensive teams should only operate in melee rounds.
(Got this idea watching Dragonball z reruns of the Saiyan saga)

If the minion blows up then dang it'll be expensive to wage war.

You know petards do this kind of thing all the time in ago of empires 2, but as a strategy it is quite sound since for a multi minion team, barring enchanters, the mage or the tank could 'distract' the opponent minion while the kamakazi minion blows up and damage the opposing team heavily. You could still have three minions remaining till the end.
say the minion explodes on the first melee round and damage ALL (yours as well) minions by 250% of the exploded minion's HP (when trained to 1/10 of HP at 1.00)? damage can not be prevented by RoBF or ToE, but stopped by base AC and upgraded AC?

Make that equal levels of HP and lower level of friendly fire, and of course unaffected by tattoo or skill like a bomb.
I don't see this skill happening, but it would be quite fun to use if it did.

multi minion divided gain exp so one is (almost) sure to be weak if multi minion strategy is use right from the start!
i think i notice something in this game about blowing opponents up '.'
if one wants to blow himself up it will make the job easier for the rest of us. :) [Admin Edit: Non-PG]
DragonballZ is a great Japanese animation, i envy you watching it, you lucky forktoad :)
