General Information[]

Horseman North European

The Horseman is the first level of standard Heavy Cavalry available to the player. They're unlocked in the Iron Age.

The standard Heavy Cavalry's default behavior is to seek and destroy defenses. With a large amount of hitpoints, they can endure more than any other troop of their Age, as well as dealing a lot of damage before falling. However, their disadvantages is that they have low damage and can be killed easily by Anti-Heavy Cavalry Towers such as Ballista TowersCannon Towers, and Anti-Tank Guns and that they can only deal 30% of their regular damage against resource buildings.

The French unique Heavy Cavalry unit have 15% more damage and 25% more hitpoints than the standard Heavy Cavalry.

From the v3.0 update, The Greek unique Heavy Cavalry unit increased additional damage to 25% (previously 20%) and reduced additional HP to 10% (previously 15%). The data in the table has been modified.

Attacking Strategies[]

  • Heavy Cavalry have a lot of health but are slow and have low attack power, so use them in groups.
  • Heavy Cavalry are weak against many defenses grouped together.
  • When pushing for trophies, you would need to destroy the Town Center. In many bases, the Town Center is in the center of the base. First, train up an army of Heavy Cavalry and a Wall Breacher. When attacking, deploy your Veteran Wall Sapper and wait till it destroys the necessary Walls. Then, deploy all your Heavy Cavalry in the areas which the Town Center closest to. If there are a few defenses blocking the way, destroy them. Then rally your Heavy Cavalry to destroy the Town Center.
  • Heavy Cavalry ignore defensive troops and pursue their targets, which are defensive buildings. However, if a defensive troop attacks the Heavy Cavalry, the Heavy Cavalry will attack back until the defensive troop is killed; thus making the Heavy Cavalry distracted. Try to use and deploy Ranged Infantry or Heavy Infantry after deploying the Heavy Cavalry to eliminate the defensive troops.
  • When fighting on defense, they have high advantages over range infantries and siege weapons but are slightly weaker when facing a heavy infantry

Defensive Strategies[]

  • Heavy Cavalry are a good alliance troop due to their high hitpoints, making them tougher to defeat.
  • The Reinforcements technology in the Library spawns Heavy Cavalry from the forest on defense to help fend off invading troops.

Updates[]

Cavalry damage reduced to 80/90/110/130/140 (were 128/144/176/208/224). Unique and Mercenary Cavalry changed to match.

Trivia[]

  • Mounted soldiers, called cavalry, have always been a deciding factor in battle. They can often turn the tide of battle as they are usually the strongest, sturdiest, and most manueverable troops.
  • As of update March 15 2022, Heavy Cavalry received complete rework, and cost oil to build
