Unit Types (Warriors Orochi)

The following is a list of common troop and officer types exclusively found in the Warriors Orochi series. Models for soldiers and generals from the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors series appear and use like movesets. Troops are able to perform single attacks by themselves and in coordination with other like units. Officers can perform combo strings but are unable to use Musou attacks.

Troops

With the exception of his generals, the bulk of Orochi's armies all share the same appearance. They have a pale blue skin, white hair and are shirtless. They can wield an assortment of weapons:

Sword - a style adapted from Samurai Warriors. Uses kicks and curved swings. in Warriors Orochi 3 and 4, a style adapted from Dynasty Warriors.
Spear - a style adapted from Samurai Warriors. Uses kicks and curved swings. in Warriors Orochi 3 and 4, a style adapted from Dynasty Warriors.
Bow - shoots arrows from afar. Generally fires randomly, sometimes as a group, sometimes in succession.

The counterparts that are led by Tamamo look severely different, sporting a different hairstlyle, a much more brown skin tone and a much more wild appearance to reflect their untamed nature.

Greek faction troops come in the form of Zeus's forces on Olympus who don a white chiton and golden helmets, a lot of their infantry also appears with shields. Odin's Asgard faction don brown armor, red scarves and european style breastplates, they also carry axes instead of swords. Hades underworld army is a palette swap of Zeus' army but they also wield axes like the Asgardian faction.

Generic Officers

The most common demon general. They are blue and have a stocky build. They also have a mouthpiece that looks like fangs and share visual traits similar to a medieval interrogator or executioner. Their attack style is as follows:

Sword - Same as peons but now uses a full combo system.
Naginata - For some reason although it's a weapon in and of itself in Samurai Warriors the moveset is that of the spear moveset of the game.
Spear - Same as the generics from Dynasty Warriors.

Kyubi no Kitsune also has these generals in her army, and they look similar to the original except they have their fangs covered by a mask that conveys a red symbol.

Monsters

Hydra: The true form of the God of Destruction, Orochi X. 8 heads that attack with fireballs, can only be defeated with specialised weapons such as the Yashio'ori because common ballistae cannot damage it enough and conventional fighting cannot reach it's domain in the lava.

Warriors Orochi 4 introduces monsters as a recurring threat in the Warriors Orochi series. They all have different attacks and can be formidable threats if not dealt with quickly. They resist most conventional attacks and require the use of magic and Sacred Treasures to help weaken or vanquish them.

Chaos Origin- These blue hollowed out spirits appear in fixed positions of the maps, can cause nearby troops to resist normal attacks the same as they can and can summon extra reinforcements on a sporadic basis. They only appear for enemy forces, never the allied.

Cyclops- A giant with a helmet and a piercing blue eye, they move very slow but have a large area of attack, they can also stomp to push attackers away.

Griffin- Quadrupedal bird like creatures that can attack with ice. The best strategy is to hit them from behind as their ice attacks have a large coverage.

Wraith- Black hollowed out spirits, bear some resemblance to chaos origins, who are very aggressive if approached. Fire and giant variants also exist.
