Basic Tactics

The key to being a good tactitian is knowing how to use your troops most effectively. Each Unit type in The Ember Conflict has its own strngths and weaknesses and a good commander will have to master them.

Units are divided into classes:

Infantry illustration Infantry Units like your Shield Guard are the bread and butter of an army. They have high attack damage and durability. Defeat units of other classes in heads-up melee combat Move at a slow to medium speed Some Infantry have even higher damage but less health Other Infantry are best used as shields to your other units

Ranged illustration Ranged Your Rangers are the most basic form of a Ranged unit, a class that can hit the enemy without getting hit back. Can damage enemies from a distance Have much lower health Do very little damage in melee combat

Cavalry illustration Cavalry Fast-moving, Cavalry units such as your Horseman are the best class for executing maneuvers. Extremely mobile Great for flanking and other tactical plays Not as strong as Infantry in heads-up combat

Support illustration Support You'll gain access to the first Support unit, the Floic Doctor at level 4. These are advanced unita that help you in unique ways. Have abilities like healing auras that assist allied units Create opportunities to innovate on shandard strategies Difficult to master but the rewards are great
