Castle Battle · Troop class

Anti-Armor Troops

Maces, halberds and picks built to break armour: the answer to knights, golems and anything plated. There are 17 of them, fielded by ten of the ten kingdoms.

What they beat, and what beats them

Every anti-armor troop deals extra damage to Construct (×1.4) troops.

Ranged (×1.2) troops deal extra damage to anti-armor troops.

The multipliers apply to every blow between the two classes, on top of a troop's own powers — an anti-armor troop with a brace or an anti-air bonus still has that too. The whole web is on the classes page.
