Termites (Macrotermes bellicosus) are playable as complete colonies in story levels, extra levels and custom games.

Abilities

Termites use basic attack by biting. Major soldiers can only use basic attack while mounting enemies.

Major workers are counted toward soldiers and can't do nest jobs.

Minor soldiers can confuse, slow enemies down and make them take more damage.

Majors can increase the attack speed of themselves and nearby termites from the same colony each time they hit their attacks. The effect stacks on top of itself and reverts to normal over time. The maximum value is currently unknown. Major soldiers can only use this ability while on the ground.

You can have a single termite king when you play as a termite colony. It is uncontrollable and can only attack enemies. It remains invulnerable until the queen is dead.
