Saurus Warriors are vicious fighters whose bodies and armament have been created to maximise their fighting potential in close combat. As well as their well-designed weapons, they make use of their bony crests, powerful jaws and claws. Even their shields are designed to strike and slash with, making them formidable opponents.

However, this instinctive and predatory fighting style works best at close range, so Saurus Warriors fighting with spears may only make a single attack rather than two, if they are positioned where they can attack in the second rank of fighting a foe to the unit's front.
