The ancient behemoth is a champion creature of the Stronghold in Might & Magic: Heroes VII. It is the upgraded form of the behemoth.

Behemoths are highly social creatures. Younger behemoths are usually the hunters of the group, while the older specimens, recognizable to their grey fur, are tasked with guard duty. Woe to the imprudent who trespasses on the group’s territory: Ancient Behemoths are bigger, fiercer, more cunning – and surprisingly agile for such hulking creatures.^OffBck

Abilities

	Piercing Claws
	The Behemot’s claws are so sharp that they bypass half of the target’s defense. The hits of the creature ignore half of the target unit`s Defence.OffBck
	Mighty Pounce
	The Ancient Behemot can jump very far and literally smash his target to the ground, stunning it for a while. Once per combat the creature can pounce at double its normal movement range and attack all neighbouring enemy units which cannot retaliate.OffBck
