Storm Giant

This mod allows the production of Menhir of Thunder and Storm Giants in the Giants Dwelling. The new unit is a shock damage variant of the stone giant with the ability to throw a huge thunderbolt to an enemy unit or object.
The Storm Giant carries a sort of large hook pike, helmet and obviously throws bolts of lighting. It is a living siege unit which inflicts elemental damage.

To balance the Storm Giant, it has less HP than the frost giant and weak defense for a Giant (high resistance though). Upon leveling up it gains static shield.

Iron Medal: +1 Melee physical damage, +8 HP
Bronze Medal: +1 Ranged physical damage, Stunning Touch, +8 HP, +1 Resistance
Silver Medal: +1 Melee physical damage, +8 HP, Static Shield
Gold Medal: +1 Ranged physical damage, +8 HP, +1 Resistance, Inflict Stun

This giant does not resist or is weak to any particular damage type, but its low defense allows for lower units to cause great harm, although magic users will find difficult to deal against it. High resistance, great range, good damage output and the ability to clear obstacles for your melee troops will make it a great companion for physical based players.
Players who fear Dreadnoughts or Warlord will find in the Storm Giant an asset to defend cities or keep low level enemy swarms at bay. At first all it needs, is to stay in the back protected by some T1 infantry or pikemen. Afterwards, it can come to the front line using the standard 36 move points inherent for giants and use stun touch or flank an enemy using either a melee or a ranged attack. Quite a versatile unit, not overpowered but not necesarily underpowered for a T4, it will fill a role in your army.
