Faction choice and civilization doctrine

How it works

• Göktürk: attack and raid marches made up only of mounted units (raiders and heavy cavalry) travel 12% faster; adding even one archer, spearman, siege master or agent cancels the bonus.
• Hun: loot carried home from victorious attacks and raids increases by 15%.
• Avar: structural damage dealt to the target village on a victory or draw increases by 14%.
• Uyghur: every completed Caravan Market sale pays an extra 16% of the subtotal in gold to the seller's village.
• The faction is chosen separately for each world you join; the bonus applies only in that world.
• In worlds with the new combat rules (new worlds and Ötüken Land – Season 3) all four factions have a unit profile: Hun raiders and heavy cavalry attack +8% / defence −5%, archers attack +4%; Göktürk spearmen and heavy cavalry defence +8% / attack −5%, archers defence +4%; Avar siege masters attack +10%, spearmen attack +4%, heavy cavalry defence +5%; Uygur archers defence +6%, spearmen defence +5%, raiders attack −4%.
• The same worlds have archer cover: in an attack, the strength of archers marching together with spearmen rises by 25% × (spearmen ÷ archers), at most 25%. Example: 100 archers and 50 spearmen give the archers +12,5%.

Step by step

1. Compare the main bonus and recommended style of play of the four peoples as they join a new world.
2. Choose the people best suited to the plan of unit, trade or siege, which you will often use.
3. Reread the active active from the Civilization Doctrine card on the Army screen in the game.
4. Master the building, assembly and alliance bonuses to the same goal as your doctrine, or balance the missing area.
