lord - "blunderbus"
The lord receives a large Blunderbuss.
This has the same range as the crossbow but does an incredible amount of damage.
It is a ranged, splash damage weapon, with the possibility of damaging a number of creatures at a time.
When a target is hit, units nearby will also receive an amount of damage.
The Lord will not attack if allies will be hit.

teleport is a real wizard lifeline. No contest.
