Each unit has a certain attacking type, blunt, sharp or ranged. Also, each unit has three defensive values, one for each type of attacking unit. For example, if you attack with 10 slingers, then the total attacking value will be 230 ranged. Archers defend with a force of 12 against ranged weapons. You will therefore lose 19 or 20 archers. Use the simulator for detailed calculations.

Militia 40x40.png

Militia

Militia is a special unit which can not be recruited in the barracks. Instead, you are able to call them up from the farm. They cost no resources, nor population space. However, if you activate them then production will halve in your city for 3 hours. Militia is a purely defensive unit, it cannot attack and you cannot send it to other cities, even as support. After 3 hours they will disappear (if they have not been killed already) and your production will be back to 100%. Your resource production will remain at 50% for 3 hours, even if all of the militia is killed only seconds after activation. 0 Hout.png 0 Attack
