Imperian
A offensive infantry unit of the Romans. Every figure below is produced by the same engine behind the calculators, so a stat here and a result there cannot disagree.
What stands out
- It is the second-most crop-efficient attacker to feed, with 70.0 attack for each crop it eats an hour.
- It buys more attack per resource than any other Roman troop, at 11.7 per 100 resources.
- At Smithy level 20 its attack rises from 70 to 86.9, a 24% gain.
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.
| Smithy | Offence | Def inf | Def cav |

| Level 5 | 74 | 43 | 27 |
| Level 10 | 78 | 46 | 30 |
| Level 15 | 82 | 49 | 32 |
| Level 20 | 87 | 52 | 35 |
