Guides & Information

Fundamentals

• Army split between a weak swarm component and powerful back-line units

• The swarm component dies quickly and requires a constant stream of reinforcements

  • Train proactively and constantly when using it

  • Use the Top Bar to fill ranks for free

• The army's back-line is expensive and slow to train, resulting in rigid builds

• Excellent mobility and cross-map power

• Solid static defense

• Strongest Hero in co-op when microed properly

  • The Hero can be upgraded at the Armory

• Can permanently mind control enemy units

  • Mind-controlled units cost supply

• Can massively increase Faction Power gain by upgrading Idal Conduits

• Strongest Top Bar: a Swiss army knife with a tool for every task

Rank Classifications

A = This unit performs its Roles reliably and is cost-effective, but has small limitations (Ex: a Slow, Tanky unit)

C = This unit is not reliable/cost-effective and often mediocre at its roles
