Merging troops is a special server feature that allows you to combine troops from different villages into a single army. Merged troops behave exactly as if they were trained in their new home village, including benefiting from that village’s Smithy upgrades. Merging always costs resources or Gold.
How to Merge Troops
Send the troops you want to merge to the target village (their future home).
Open the Rally Point in the target village.
In the Overview tab, find the incoming reinforcements you sent.
Click “incorporate into village.”
Select how many troops you want to merge (this determines the cost).
Complete the merge by paying with resources (NPC is allowed) or Gold.
Restrictions
You can only merge troops that belong to your own avatar.
You can only merge troops of the same tribe as the target village.
You cannot merge:
Settlers
Administrators (chiefs, senators, etc.)
Siege weapons (catapults, rams)
The hero (the hero can simply move between villages)
Research levels do not matter—you can merge units into a village even if the unit type was never researched there.
Gold merges are limited to 50 Gold per village per day, resetting with the daily quest reset.
Merging with resources has no limit.
Merging Costs
The cost of merging is based on the recruitment cost of the units being merged:
Total merging cost = 2 × (recruitment cost of the units)
If paying with Gold:
Gold cost = total resource cost ÷ 40,000, rounded up
Example
You want to merge 1,000 Clubswingers:
Recruitment cost of 1 Clubswinger = 250 total resources
Total resource cost for merging = 250 × 1,000 × 2 = 500,000
(190,000 wood, 150,000 clay, 80,000 iron, 80,000 crop)
Gold cost = 500,000 ÷ 40,000 = 13 Gold
