[SUBMISSION] Undead Warrior was created by CaptainToenail
It's basically a reskin of Heretic's Undead Knight, to match Hexen's darker, more barbaric tone. Throws flaming axes, similar to the original, in slightly random volleys and angles. Useful if you want to add another Ettin-tier enemy to the roster of minions. Reuses several existing resources contained within Hexen's iwad.


Information:
Name: Undead Warrior
Difficulty: Easy
Connections: Hexen iwad required

Idea Base: A gritty, dark fantasy version of Heretic's Undead Knight enemy, to 
            better match the atmosphere and tone of Hexen.

Description:
    Warriors from a bygone era, resurrected through foul rituals. Wielding 
    flaming throwing axes, they now serve as soldiers in Korax's army of 
    darkness.

that very nice looking, thought the first two sprites from the pain rotation (1 and 2) seem to lack the open helmet, funnily enough the 8th doesn't.

Well spotted Craneo - I have now updated the file with new pain frames.

I also tweaked the axe embers to spawn slightly further back, and added a check to the attack, so if it repeats it will abort if the target is out of sight.
