Grundlagen
In Elvenar gibt es für jedes Volk fünf Einheiten, die im Forschungsbaum freigeschaltet und in der Kaserne trainiert werden können. Einheiten der Elfen und Menschen haben ähnliche Stärken, aber ihre taktische Spielweise unterscheidet sich doch etwas.
Beide Völker beginnen mit leichten Nahkampfeinheiten und Fernkämpfern mit geringer Reichweite. Der wesentliche Unterschied besteht darin, dass Einheiten der Menschen mehr Schaden anrichten, aber dafür schwächer in der Verteidigung sind, wohingegen die Einheiten der Elfen ausgewogener sind.
Die dritten und vierten Einheiten sind für beide Völker komplett verschieden und verlangen im Kampf andere Strategien. Die letzte freischaltbare Einheit in der Kaserne ist für beide Völker ein magiebegabter Unterstützer.
Zusätzlich wirst du in den Provinzen auf der Weltkarte noch auf weitere Einheiten stoßen, gegen die du dich im Kampf beweisen kannst. Welche gegnerischen Truppen du antriffst, hängt von der Art der Provinz und ihrer Entfernung zu deiner Stadt ab.
Außer der ersten Einheit, die bereits freigeschaltet ist, wenn du deine Kaserne errichtet hast, müssen alle anderen im Forschungsmenu freigeschaltet werden. Du kannst auch die Kampfkraft deiner Einheiten verbessern, indem du die entsprechende "Ausbildung" erforschst.

Unit Classes
In Elvenar you will find 5 Classes of units: Light Melee, Short Ranged, Heavy Melee, Heavy Ranged and Mage.
Each Class has certain Unit Types assigned to it. For example: while Sword Dancers, Axe Barbarians, Cerberus and Orcs are different Unit Types, they all belong to the same Class: Light Melee.
