Ice Reaper

Ice Reapers are enemies encountered in the Frozen North, in Kingdom Rush: Vengeance. They were introduced in the Frozen Nightmare Mini-Campaign.
==Overview==
Ancient spirits of the cold north, capable of corrupting the souls of anyone they kill with their frosty hands.
Ice Reapers are fast-moving icy spirits who move quickly to intercept troops, sport medium magic resistance, deal high damage per second and have a good amount of health for such a fast-moving enemy. Compounding things further is their capability of spawning Apex Shards every time they kill one of the player's troops, meaning that they can overrun a low-leveled barracks in no time.
==Strategy==
* When soldiers are killed by Ice Reapers, Apex Shard spawns from the dead. Barracks troops should therefore be leveled up enough so that they don't fall to the Ice Reapers. This doesn't happen near the exits.
** The need for upgraded barracks also comes from the fact that Ice Reapers move rather quickly, making stalling crucial.
* Dark Knights with Armor of Thorns will make shorter work of Ice Reapers than most other enemies since they receive extra damage due to their extra hit. Furthermore, Dark Knights' very high armor will greatly soften the damage from Ice Reapers, making them far less likely to die and be turned into Apex Shards.
* If Possessed, the enemies it kills will spawn permanently-allied Apex Shards.
==Appearances==
* Into the Mountains
* The Frozen Throne
