Function & construction

The Stronghold has 3,000 hit points, 50% siege resistance and 26 line of sight. Its ranged attack deals 32 damage at range 24 every 1.5 seconds. When destroyed, it creates a Huge Coin Chest worth 500 Coin. These values belong to the Scenario Editor structure and depend on the mission’s placement and ownership.

Placement & timing

If the Stronghold is an enemy objective, bring siege support and account for its long range and garrison. If it is friendly, use the garrison to protect workers and defend its firing area. Consider the 500-Coin chest when planning the destruction, but clear nearby defenders before sending units to collect it.

A scenario tower with a resource reward

Huari Stronghold’s destruction changes the encounter by creating a 500-Coin chest. The tower’s 3,000 health, siege resistance and range make it a significant defensive object, while its 20-unit garrison can protect workers during a mission. It is available through the Scenario Editor rather than the ordinary Inca build menu. Treat its stats as part of the scenario design, and do not plan standard multiplayer defenses around it.
