Overview
The Gauls are the most peace-loving and balanced of all the tribes. Their troops are highly trained in defensive tactics, making them strong defenders and difficult targets for raiders.
However, their legendary cavalry speed also allows skilled players to surprise opponents with swift counterattacks and raids.
This tribe offers flexible gameplay — capable of both offense and defense, teamwork or solo play, infantry or cavalry strategies.
The Gauls are an excellent choice for beginners, thanks to their strong defenses and natural protection against raids.
Playstyle Tips
Ideal for new players who want to learn both defense and offense safely.
Focus early on defensive building upgrades (like the Palisade) to deter attacks.
Use the Trapper to capture enemy troops and protect your resources.
Take advantage of your speed bonus to strike or reinforce faster than any other tribe.
When expanding, build on your cheap settlers and balanced economy to grow quickly.
