Role, availability & values

It has 750 hit points. It moves at 5.0 speed. Attack profile: Hand attack deals 14 damage. Ranged attack deals 15 damage. Siege attack deals 14 damage. Special ability or role: Claims treasures; Receives Home City shipments; Regeneration. If reduced to zero hit points, it collapses rather than dying; after regenerating 100 hit points, a friendly unit or building nearby can revive it.

Matchup & timing

Treat General Warwick as an Act II antagonist with scripted Home City shipment access, not as a recruitable hero. His shipment ability can change the force a mission must face, so preserve units for the objective and respond to the delivered army rather than chasing him across the map. His story runs from Strange Alliances to Bring Down the Mountain, where the final confrontation takes place in the mountain pass against Warwick and the Russian column.

Act II antagonist and hero abilities

Warwick is the main antagonist of Act II: Ice and leads the Circle of Ossus against John Black. He first appears in Strange Alliances and his story concludes in Bring Down the Mountain, where the final confrontation ends with Warwick and the Russian column in the mountain pass. As a campaign hero, he has 750 hit points, 30% hand resistance and 24 line of sight. His ranged attack deals 15 damage at range 16, and his hand attack deals 14; he also has a 14-damage siege attack. Warwick can claim Treasures and receive Home City shipments. When defeated he collapses and regenerates instead of disappearing permanently; a nearby ally or building can revive him once he reaches 100 hit points. Campaign objectives can change the available force around him, so use his shipment access and hero durability in context rather than treating him as a standard British general.

Mission appearances and unit limitations

Warwick appears through a sequence of missions beginning with Strange Alliances and ending with Bring Down the Mountain. His force changes as John Black retakes Brunswick, confronts the Boneguard on the Great Plains and blocks the Russian column in the Rockies. Warwick’s hero statistics do not make him invulnerable: the collapse-and-revive rule still requires friendly support nearby, and artillery or concentrated attacks can keep him down. Preserve the units that can cover his retreat during the final mission.
