Availability and investment
Polemarch becomes available in Civic Age. It is associated with Spartans (Chronicles unique unit · Spartans). The listed cost is not separately recorded and the training time is not separately recorded. 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.
- Reload time: 2 seconds
Field use
Use it to hold space, protect support units, or pressure an opponent that cannot kite it safely. The listed armor and bonus-attack classes determine which opponents it can trade with efficiently.
