When to use it
Barracks Army: Spawns the regular army; the active creates extra troops and buffs them.
Companion Hammer Army: Adds a regular following force and an active reinforcement. Upgrade it after Companion has reliable damage and coverage.
Side Barracks uses the side slot. Read the automatic attack and active ability separately, then choose upgrades for the attack that actually connects along your route.
Budget 800 silver for the purchase between runs.
Build and upgrade choices
Check the upgrade workshop for the named branches, tiers and rarity effects. An active-ability upgrade does not automatically improve the normal automatic attack.
Choose a firing or collision angle that lets you leave after attacking. Develop the core damage source before spreading every upgrade across support equipment.
Version changes
- 0.9.14 — Allied units are now immune to fire, stun and knockback. Their existing invincibility is unchanged; the player castle still needs a safe route.
