For this, Rogue is perfect - You get a global spell that gives them +1 Blight damage, Backstab which is a phenomenal skill which works on both Crushers, Chargers and Flyers, a lot of spells that promote keeping those units alive while Regrowth does its thing. You need to pick a class that actually wants to build low tier racial units. Plus Warlord also pays less upkeep for high tier units. Warlords shouldn't spend much time building racial units anyway as you get far more mileage from Phalanxes, Monster Hunters and Manticore riders. Low tier units are already easy to gold medal due to needing way less XP and also getting silver/gold medals themselves just with city structures. Draconian Crushers and Chargers are awesome but Flamers are mediocre and the raptor riders are trash tier cavalry - Archers and Cavalry are important to Warlord. However, you should be able to 'pulse' Global Assault to produce a bunch of Hatchlings that evolve into units, then deactivate and re-cast Global Assault to instantly rank everything up. It only makes produced units and units which exist at the time of casting gold, which evolves them but leaves them at Recruit rank, which means that Baby Reed Serpents would be turned into Mature Reed Serpents.

I wonder if this works for making Baby Reed Serpents into King Reed Serpents instantly at a Naga Dwelling.Įdit, Hatchlings can Evolve into Fliers, saving you 105 gold and 20 mana. At the very least you don't need to build structures for them. You don't save much if they evolve into a Crusher, but you save more than 20 gold if they evolve into Flamers or Chargers. I think I'm going to have some fun with this!īy the way, Hatchlings evolve when they get to Gold rank, and The Great War gives automatic Gold Rank. In my new game, I just found a city near a Dungeon and a Lich Castle, so mine are going to have Fear Strike and Killing Momentum. Finally, the Warlord can research Martial Arts training for them so they end up with 16 armor against Retaliation.

Adept of Shadowborn can give them Lifesteal.

They get Regrowth and +4 Fire damage from Race Governance. They get to start at Gold rank, giving them Tireless. The Draconian Crusher benefits from The Great War more than any unit I've ever seen.
