Tips[]
- The Siege Tower is a slow-moving unit that can only attack buildings with the primary attack. With the secondary attack, provided that the siege tower is garrisoned, they deal pierce damage and can be a serious threat.
- Units inside a Siege Tower are not lost when it's destroyed. If a Siege Tower is converted by an enemy, garrisoned units are automatically ejected and not converted alongside it.
- Garrisoning lower health units inside can provide the Babylonian Siege Tower with a good area of effect pierce attack while keeping your units alive.
- If low on resources, Shield Bearers and Bowmen are cheap options to fill up Siege Towers, though Villagers also work.
