There are 3 Enemy Types in Thronefall. Human, Beast and Siege units. All of them combined pose a legitimate threat to the king’s castle. Each has their weaknesses and strength. That is what we will cover in this Wiki post.
The names of each enemy were confirmed by looking inside the games files along with the related icons for each unit. Perks and Mutators will affect the difficulty of each foe.
Basic Understanding
The short version of how to counter each type is as follows:
- Monster Enemys are hard countered by Hunters (built from Archery Range).
- Human – Create a mismatch between Ranged and Melee units.
- Siege – Ballista (Defense Tower level 3) and Berserkers (Barracks Level 1) prioritize Siege units.
Each unit is listed in alphabetical order with a brief description and Icon.
