In Vikings: War of Clans, troops are a powerful force that can help you become the mighty ruler of the North! Attack enemy Towns, capture resource locations, assail Fortresses, defend your clanmates, and become the greatest Viking. Troops are waiting for your orders.
Choose the appropriate troop type
In Vikings, your army can consist of the following troop types:
- Melee
- Cavalry
- Ranged
- Killers
- Siege
Each of these types has their pros and cons. For example, melee warriors are 25% stronger than killers and 50% stronger than Viking cavalry. At the same time, they are 25% weaker than ranged warriors and 50% weaker than siege engines.
In Vikings: War of Clans, troop capacity and marching speed vary from type to type. For instance, siege troops have the highest capacity, so they are most effective to use when yielding resources.
Learn your enemies’ weak spots
In Vikings: War of Clans, scouts are a special type of unit that gathers valuable insights about your opponents and defends your Town from enemy espionage.
They can learn what troops and resources other Towns or locations possess. Use this information to choose the right Viking soldiers and successfully attack your enemy. In Vikings: War of Clans, Onslaughts and attacks on powerful enemies are hardly possible without scouts. However, remember that unlike other troop types, scouts can only fight other scouts.
Strengthen your army
Which troops should you upgrade in Vikings? It depends on your strategy. In Vikings: War of Clans, troop upgrades play an important role in developing your Town and the whole Clan. When fighting for Fortresses, all troop types may be useful, so before you choose your path, think everything over and discuss it with your clanmates.
In Vikings, troops can be upgraded by:
- Using equipment, gems, and runes
- Learning Knowledge
- Upgrading Hero’s and Shamans’ Skills
- Applying military boosts
- Summoning Aesir
- Using the features of the Valkyries’ Citadel
- Using bonuses provided by Reputes from the Place of Power
- Upgrading your VIP level
- Using Town Skins
Unlock new troop tiers
In Vikings: War of Clans, tiers represent your warriors’ level. The higher the tier, the better the military stats. Currently, there are 7 troop tiers, which can be unlocked by learning the corresponding Knowledge in the Oracle.
