Tips[]
- Like all Norse Infantry, the Scout(Melee) only builds at 50% rate of a villager. When building your first barracks it is recommended to put a villager on it as well (later barracks can be built with military units).
- It's possible to build a proxy barracks, however a risky move if not timed well.
