Ground splash damage
Wizard
Wizards attack ground and air targets with splash damage. They clear groups of nearby targets well when protected, but can be lost quickly when they lead an entry.
Plan the attack
- Use a tank to draw fire before placing Wizards where they can reach the outside buildings you want removed.
- Space the support line and watch whether it follows the tanks into the intended compartment.
Common mistake
Clumping every Wizard into one tile behind a weak front line. Splash defenses can remove the damage support together.
Works alongside
A Golem can occupy defenses while Wizards clear buildings behind it. Check the route after each outside building falls.
Before prioritising an upgrade
Upgrade Wizards if they are the army’s regular funnel or damage support. A funnel can also fail from placement, which a research upgrade will not fix.
