How to use
An expensive (620 gold) tier-5 air rider: it flies straight at the weakest archer or mage in the rear, with the first hit ×1.5. Melee units other than spearmen cannot reach it and siege cannot hit air. It works best when the enemy army is pinned in combat.
Strengths and weaknesses
- Strong against: archers, mages and siege weapons that cannot answer air.
- Danger: spearmen (×2), ranged archers and mages.
- Works well with: the main army that distracts the enemy.
Price by castle level
