Troop type

Paladin

Baldur's own guard: lightning-fast elite riders found only in special castles and amber castles – and the terror of the Wawel-Dragon.

You recruit the Paladin in the Stables, but only in a special castle: in gold castles, in the other special castles such as mage, ice or Halloween castles, and in amber castles. Tied with spies, the paladin is the fastest unit in the game, attacks hard and carries a lot of loot. In return he takes up six settlers.

Strengths and weaknesses

+ The highest speed, plus a strong attack and large carrying capacity – ideal for quick strikes and plunder raids.
– Only available in a few castles; in defence other troops give you more for your money.

Against the Wawel-Dragon no other troop does as much damage per unit as the paladin, and he is strong against the Shadow-Keeper too (see Alliance dragon raids). On wild animal hunts he may join against bears and wisents, which are among the toughest animals.
