Reinforcements: helping other villages and getting help

Send troops as Reinforcement to defend another village. They fight there until you withdraw them, and the host village feeds them.

Send troops with the mission Reinforcement. They stay in the target village and defend it against every attack.

The host feeds the reinforcements. If the host runs out of crop, reinforcements starve first.

Reinforcing your own village with your hero moves the hero's home to that village.

The Rally Point shows "Your troops in other villages" with a button to withdraw them, and "Reinforcements in this village" with a button to send them back.

Each army uses the Armoury levels of its own home village.

What works best
  • Defensive cavalry (Druidrider, Paladin) arrives fastest.
  • Mix defence against infantry and against cavalry.
