Shantiri Golem should take reachable melee exchanges or hold an approach to more valuable units. Before advancing, identify its next target and enemies able to attack it afterward.
Watch for: Base stats are not the final exchange result. Account for retaliation, current creature count, target immunity and subsequent action order.
Timing, specific abilities and the follow-up plan
Combat movement 5 and Initiative 17 are separate. Choose a reachable target by current order and the actual physical or magical attack type.
Construct: Resists poison, blindness, mind effects and morale. Ordinary healing and resurrection do not work; repairs must explicitly support constructs.
Bash: A critical hit prevents retaliation and disables the target through its next turn. An ordinary noncritical hit does not satisfy the trigger.

A neutral listing does not imply ordinary recruitment in every town. Acquisition depends on the map, scenario, dwelling or special effect.
Abilities and limitations
Construct
Resists poison, blindness, mind effects and morale. Ordinary healing and resurrection do not work; repairs must explicitly support constructs.
Bash
A critical hit prevents retaliation and disables the target through its next turn. An ordinary noncritical hit does not satisfy the trigger.
Unfettered
Resists all movement reduction. Choose another tool besides ordinary slowing when trying to stop its advance.
This reference assigns no direct town dwelling. Read the profile’s availability and abilities for acquisition.
Reference stack cost and health
These values multiply every resource in the undiscounted reference price and full base health. Hero, equipment, spell, price and growth modifiers are excluded. This is neither final damage or battle survival nor a guarantee that the listed number is available to recruit.

Reading this profile correctly
Distinguish a base creature from its upgrade and an alternative Champion. Fortress and other content have edition labels. A warfare unit’s five scaling ranks are not creature counts.
Attack and defense are numeric attributes; damage also has its own type or element. Full and half ranged reach describe an attack mode rather than ammunition. Compare Champions with their mutually exclusive dwellings. Warfare units use separate control and scaling; the five stages in their tables are not creature counts.
156 profiles: 112 base and upgraded town creatures from seven factions, 25 neutrals and 19 warfare units. Includes Fortress and other Trial by Fire creatures, separately identifying verified Lost Tales of Axeoth content. Historical Acid Cave stats include rebalanced Champions; this is not a UCP or Heroes 7.5 table. Base dwelling growth has separate references and is still missing for 14 profiles. Warfare units have their own stage 1–5 effect tables; their base parameters do not cover every Warfare level.
