Overview

Sicilian infantry trained from Castles or Donjons and able to construct Donjons itself.

Availability and investment

Serjeant becomes available in Feudal Age. Its listed production context is Sicilians. The listed cost is not separately recorded and the training time is 12 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.

    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.

    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.

    Related unit plan: Serjeant Donjon foothold plan

    Serjeant: Serjeants can build and repair Donjons, which creates an early forward-pressure option for Sicilians. The unit’s structure ability can turn control of one lane into a defended production foothold Scout a route near an exposed resource or approach, then escort Serjeants and builders while the first Donjon is constructed. Use its protection to secure nearby space and reinforce the pressure only if the position survives the initial response. Repair from a safe angle and keep a retreat route for the builders The stone and unit investment is substantial, and a forward Donjon can be isolated or bypassed. Do not attempt the drop without scouting, protection, and a follow-up plan; stop investing if the opponent can contain the site
