Orcs

Strategy

----------------

Chainwave: Chain Lightning Shockwave

Gruntapult: Gulu siege vehicle. This tactic is usually used to harass enemy farmers. Build double barracks at level 2 and use siege vehicle at level 2. This tactic is most effective for NE, but it is not suitable for those who use it. The race that sticks to ground troops is also effective. Grunts have an advantage when attacking units with medium armor, and siege engines have an advantage when attacking units without armor or reinforced armor.

Bat/Wyv: Troll Bat Knight and Wind Knight. . Harassment is crucial in this tactic, because there are almost no first-level units, such as Gulu. It is best to use Juggernaut and Prophet to harass, then build one or two arrow towers and then build two animal pens. After finishing, start to quickly release the Wind Knight and the Troll Bat Knight. The Bat is very effective against light air units like the Horned Eagle, and has good attack power against buildings. The Wind Knight is very effective against ground melee units like the Huntress, because the opponent cannot attack. They are however not good against large numbers of ground ranged troops.
