An Archosaurian armored warrior armed with dual-wielded buzzsaws from the pugnacious Tiacauh tribes of Acahualla who act as Zumama's elite guards, Tiacauh Shredders are quite durable and resilient towards Physical damage thanks to their good DEF, and their buzzsaws allow Shredders to attack friendly units in both melee and ranged tiles from a short distance away, though their armor make Shredders move noticeably slower and does not protect them from Arts damage.
Tiacauh Shredders' true danger lies within their ability to destroy a Giant Mushroom or Stump on a radius of 1.8 tiles around them after every four attacks, prioritizing the one closest to the Shredder's position; if a Giant Mushroom is destroyed this way, the Stump that would appear in its place will be destroyed as well. Silencing Tiacauh Shredders will prevent them from destroying Giant Mushrooms/Stumps in addition to freezing the attack count.
The Tiacauh Shredder's ability to destroy Giant Mushrooms/Stumps can be detrimental since the Stumps' destruction not only removes the defensive advantage bestowed by the Giant Mushrooms, but also prevents the player from deploying ranged units on the Stumps; what's worse, friendly units who happen to be on the Stump when it was destroyed will be instantly knocked out!
