Regent

The Regent is a unit available to all civilizations when playing on the Regicide random map in Age of Mythology: Extended Edition. It has decent HP and speed but it cannot attack and has low defenses, making it helpless against enemy attacks.

Strategy
Regents must be kept close to the player's main base where it will be protected by the Town Center. Raiding units such as Camelry can easily outrun the regent so they should be guarded by anti-cavalry units. Players may choose to protect the regent by keeping them within a walled space but that can also leave them trapped if surrounded. The regent is immune to the Bolt God Power to prevent an easy win for Zeus worshipers. As it is a hero, it cannot be converted by Monks or the Traitor God Power.

History
"A regent is a ruler of the empire. Regents were often considered temporary rules for various reasons such as the successor to the throne being a minor, or the royal line having died out. Much like the king, however, the regent is the head of the empire and with his death comes the end. When a Regicide game is played, the regent must survive at all costs for when he dies, the game is lost."

Trivia

 * The regent has the same appearance regardless of the civilization played.
