Royal Recruits are six shielded soldiers deployed across both lanes. With so many targets, they split your opponent's defense in two.

How to play

Deploy Royal Recruits on your side across both lanes; as they slowly march forward, support them with cards like Royal Hogs or Flying Machine. Their shields protect them from small spells. On defense they distract many ground troops.

Tips

• Pressuring both lanes with Royal Hogs is a classic combo.
• Thanks to their shields, Zap and The Log won't clear them easily.
• They can't hit air, so plan your air defense separately.

Strengths

• Pressure both lanes at once.
• Shields make them resistant to small spells.

Weaknesses

• Expensive; splash troops can clear them.
• Can't hit air.
