Units General Info

In Grepolis, you may recruit units in order to attack other cities or defend your own. Land units can be used to pillage other cities on your own island, whilst naval units can be used to transport land units to other islands or can be used to attack others' naval ships. Each land unit has one of three weapon types, as well as three defensive figures which show how well it can defend against each weapon.

You may recruit land units through the Barracks (with the exception of the Militia). Naval units can be built through the Harbor.

Unit speed values are based on Unit Speed 1 worlds. For higher speeds, multiply the values as needed.

62274b8bbafa4e190fedc8643c30fd36 Attack
This is the attack power of the ship. The higher this is, the stronger the unit is when attacking.
cbea84017d603e7f67a125740d97b200 Capacity
For transport boats only. This indicates how many units a transport boat can carry to other islands.
Each land unit has a certain attacking type, blunt, sharp or ranged. Also, each unit has three defensive values, one for each type of attacking unit. For example, if you attack with 10 slingers, then the total attacking value will be 230 ranged. Archers defend with a force of 12 against ranged weapons. You will therefore lose 19 or 20 archers. Use the simulator for detailed calculations.
