| The Thunderbird is a magical creature believed to inhabit the forests near Indian Trading Post. As a Spirit unit, he is unaffected by many other units' attack and defense modifiers. His ability to swoop in and attack a unit in the middle of his move makes him an excellent addition to a Totem Building team. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Favoured by most over the buffalo rider, the Thunderbird is an excellent addition to a team for scenarios in which items have to be collected. Being one of the first spirit units in the game makes it quite useful to have on your side.
[edit] Strategy
Use the Thunderbird's large movement range similarly to the Steam Gunman: to ferry items in scenarios such as Claim Jumping or Totem Building. The Thunderbird is also useful in Forest Guardians as a mobile Tree-grower; with the Frog Fetish attached, it can single-handedly grow a tree in 8 ticks, and defend it fully from both the Logging Robot and Super Logging Robot's proximity attacks. It can then attack said robots from a safe spot on the other side of the tree. This can also be done in Totem Building by attacking the totem from opposite sides of the totem base.
