AI War:Zenith Hydra

A potent short-range combatant that breathes (plasma) fire and rapidly regenerates its own health when not under fire. Also, as a hydra takes a certain amount of total damage it will spawn a separated "head" that attacks independently for a short time before self-destructing. A MkI hydra spawns a head upon taking 50% of its max health in damage, where a MkII hydra spawns a head upon taking only 33% of its max health in damage and so on. Generally speaking, a hydra is unable to spawn a head from damage which actually kills the body outright (which makes one-shotging these desirable).
