I thought about using that image... but he doesn't looks level 2 enough.. be alright for level one though.

I think ninjas looks something like this, well, a male one at least...

Have you seen the last samurai? there was a scene with ninjas in it... Those look cool.

The kenpo i think is lacking the shuriken, it doesnt hold any weapons at all... :/ I used the claw dancer now because the dancer at least have claws.

Ok, so Seiryu: your next mission. is to draw a level 2 ninja holding the weapons you want them to have. is that alrite?

Hey appleide can I put the traits and the attacks of the ninjas by my self?
I've got an idea. And is it possible to make an attack that choose an attack randomly from all existant attacks in wesnoth(So that we can know that the ninjas are using jutsus or own skills)?

hmm, I don't think so... But you can put every kind of attack on it and let the player choose?

eg: 8-3 impact
8-3 pierce
8-3 fire
8-3 cold

etc... But the attack window could become big and cumbersome...

might be good just to give them normal ninja attacks...
eg 4-4 shuriken ranged
8-3 katana backstab

Ok what about this:

Ninja lv2 gold: 24; exp: 20; ambush( in the night+forests, mountains...etc. apart plain ),skirmisher; move:6

For now only the traits... the attacks will be added later.

hmmm... difficult to say there wasn't even a record of they're actions... they were so secret... thats why we must invent and be a little bit fantasist.

eh... I thought they used shurikens and swords...

This will have to be agreed by the devs, so they willingly program it.

Ability: "Steal attack"
The unit may either use his own attacks or and attack of another unit next to it.

Eg. (Scenario versing opponent alone.) Ninja with steal attack versus and undead warrior alone. Ninja can use his own 5-3 katana, 3-3 shuriken OR he can use the undead warrior's 7-3 axe attack.

Eg. (Scenario versing opponent with units next to.) Ninja with steal attack versus and undead warrior. An undead archer and a mounted samurai is next to it. Ninja can use his own 5-3 katana, 3-3 shuriken OR he can use the undead warrior's 7-3 axe attack OR the undead archer's 4-2 fist attack, 6-3 bow attack OR he can use the mounted samurai's 6-3 charge attack, 5-3 bow attack, 5-3 katana attack.

How's this sound.

Oh no yes I got one: they had one ability that they were so fast that we could have seen many of them or we couldn't see them... that was ine of they're abilities.
