Laser Knight

Laser Knight is a G.U.A.R.D. monster of the Protectors agenda. Figure was released in Series 2: I Chomp NY.

As tough as they come, Laser Knight is ready to stand toe-to-toe with any man, machine, or beast in defense of humanity. He carves into foes with his blade of raw energy, drawing strength from the city around him.

Proportions:
 * Height:63 Meters
 * Weight:68,000 Tons

Alpha

 * Crunch and hit and run allow Alpha Laser Knight to deal super damag and then then position for another attack next activation.
 * Resilience and Solid keep Alpha Laser Knight in play until attacks open up. Remember that Solid does not grant immunity to throw attacks.
 * Blue Amplify means that the toughest Protector units can be used to hold as many Power Zones as possible. This allows Laser Knight to avoid relying on secured Buildings for power dice.  Seizing numerous power zones and holding them enables Laser Knight to multi-turn effectively.
 * Hazards are dangerous to all forms of Laser Knight. It is advantageous to take non-hazardous buildings and units with Extinguish.

Ultra

 * Chain attack fueled by blue amplify provides opportunities for very damaging attacks.
 * Resilience, Solid, and 7 DEF ensure Ultra will be around long enough to deal damage.
 * Resilience on both the Ultra and Alpha means that the most damage Laser Knight can take comes from collisions with buildings from throws and body slams. This makes it especially important to screen him.
 * Since he's a pedestrian, Laser Knight has problems navigating a map cluttered by buildings.
 * It can be very beneficial to bring the minimum two building city with Ultra Laser Knight to limit the possible collisions he can take or buildings in his way. However keep in mind that this gives the opponent near-total control over the game's building placement.

Mega

 * Energy cycle allows for back to back turns.
 * Reliant on surviving until strong power attacks become available.
 * No longer immune to super damage, but instead immune to building collisions. This creates a dubious tension with the Alpha.
