Common Troops
Royal Recruits
Six fairly tough melee ground troops spread out in a horizontal formation across the arena. With the addition of a shield to absorb otherwise devastating strikes, they can distract and repel most enemies and act as a capable shield for other units across both lanes, though this is for a hefty 7 Elixir, so use them wisely, for they come weak to huge splash damage and split lane defenses.

- Build around its splash / control role rather than treating it as a universal answer.
- Its target profile is ground; cover targets it cannot handle with another card.
- Test the card in friendly battles after balance updates before relying on exact interactions.
