What stands out

  • Its 65 attack is the third-highest of any catapult.
  • It buys the third-most attack per resource of any catapult, 2.0 per 100 resources.
  • At 3,250 resources it is the most expensive catapult to build.

Smithy upgrades

Each smithy level raises a stat by a fraction of its base plus a term scaled by crop consumption. The crop term is why a unit’s gain is not simply a percentage of its base stat: relative to their stats, high-upkeep units gain the most.
