Each hero comes with their own unique stats and skills — discover hero synergies and unlock their strengths to victory. • Base-building Rebuild the ruins of a mighty castle and turn it into your own war fortress! A finely built Stronghold will provide all the tools you need to gather resources, level up armies, craft useful items, train your heroes, and serve as a place of refuge as you fight the forces of evil. • Play together Join an Alliance and team up with other real players to get the best rewards in the game!
