'''Unicorns and War Unicorns''' are the level 6 creatures of [[Rampart]]. They are recruited from the [[Unicorn Glade]].

''"Unicorns and war unicorns have excellent mobility and deliver severe damage with their lancing horn attack. This attack has a 20% chance of [[blind|blinding]] an opponent. Both unicorn units project a [[magic resistance|magic resistant]] aura which gives adjacent units a 20% chance to ignore the effects of hostile spells."{{-}}<sup>[[Restoration of Erathia Manual Page 106|RoE manual]]''</sup>

''Note: The Aura of Resistance does not apply to the creature itself.''

{{user commentary|
Unicorns and War Unicorns have adequate skills in comparison to other 6th level creatures. Basic Unicorns are moderately fast, while War Unicorns have speed 9, which is very high for a melee unit unable to fly. While they have mediocre damage capability, they are among the sturdiest and cheapest given their good overall features. Especially the [[blind|blinding]] ability makes them fierce opponents, and the [[Magic resistance|aura of magic resistance]] is helpful from time to time. For example, when a mass damage spell (e.g. [[Fireball]] or [[Meteor Shower]]) is cast on multiple Unicorn stacks which are adjacent to each other, there's an opportunity that at least one of them will resist the spell. A good tactic is to split them in smaller stacks and attack an enemy unit until the [[blind]] effect is applied. Also, you may use only War Unicorns in your secondary hero's army (it may be [[Clancy]], who will give them brilliant speed 10, or [[Gem]], who will heal them fast with [[First Aid Tent]]) so as to rush through the map.
