The Termites are the only species with a King caste. This caste creates an extra target for your enemies, because although his death will not cause your colony to wither away and die, it will prevent your Queen from laying anymore eggs, thus you'd have to make do with whatever termites you already have. The King is a decent fighter, particularly when in a bunker. He can provide good cover early on, until you have a good number of guards setup, at which time it's best to keep him safe! Cost: Not Growable (see Anate) Attack: Normal Health: High Speed: Normal Importance: Required for the Termite Queen to lay eggs. Movement: Must remain somewhat close to Queen, for her to lay eggs
