Availability and investment

Carrack becomes available in Imperial Age. Its listed production context is General roster. The listed cost is 75 Wood, 35 Gold and the training time is 27 seconds. This tells you when it can first join an army and which resources must be reserved alongside Villager production, upgrades, and other military lines.

Combat profile

The available combat values are included here so the numbers can be read as a profile rather than an isolated list. Hit points and armor describe how long the unit can remain exposed; attack and any bonus damage describe what it threatens; range, reload, accuracy, and movement describe how reliably it can engage or disengage. A value shown for a whole upgrade line applies to the listed stages as recorded, so compare the stage names instead of treating the line as one base unit.

• Melee attack: 4
• Hit points: 135
• Melee armor: 5
• Pierce armor: 1
• Range: 1
• Line of sight: 6
• Reload time: 1.5 seconds
• Movement speed: 1.52
• Accuracy: 100%

Field use

Use the unit where water control matters: protect fishing and transport routes, contest enemy ships, or support a landing. Its impact depends on the map’s shore access and the rest of the fleet.

Armor classes and counters

Armor-class bonuses are separate from base attack and the target’s melee or pierce armor. The class list below shows the unit’s documented combat categories and bonus-damage relationships; use it to judge matchups instead of relying on the unit label alone.

• Carrack deals +1 bonus damage to units in the Standard building class
• Carrack deals +1 bonus damage to units in the Fire ship class
