How to Play Huns

Ideal opening (Dark → Castle): Lean on the no-houses bonus to push a fast Scout opening, then transition smoothly into Cavalry Archers or Light Cavalry as you reach Castle Age — the discounted Cav Archers make that pivot especially cheap.

Ideal late-game composition: Field Heavy Cavalry Archers as your gold unit, back them with Hussar as the cheap trash frontline, and bring Trebuchets (boosted by the accuracy bonus) to break down buildings.

Deathball composition (closed maps / team games): Mass Elite Tarkans to tear through fortifications, pair them with Heavy Cavalry Archers for ranged damage, and add Siege Rams to flatten anything left standing.

Recommended build: Scout Rush
