  • Ballistics is a Level 3 Technology decreases Siege troop space by 1 and increase attack speed by 10%.

Attacking Strategies

  • Since Cannons are defenseless against enemy troops, use troops such as Ranged Infantry to defend them.
  • Use Heavy Infantry and Heavy Cavalry to help cover the Cannons from defensive buildings.

Defensive Strategies

  • Cannons are efficient alliance troops that can help defend Town Centers. Their high damage can take out Generals and other strong units such as Heavy Cavalry. Cannons can also take a large amount of infantry if they are clumped together. Cannons are also ranged so they can shoot over walls against enemy troops without being attacked by melee units such as Heavy Infantry. This makes Cannons the number one donated war troop for defense.
  • Use the Angkor Wat to heal them as they attack enemy troops. That way, they can last longer as they are being attacked.
