How players use it
- King of Nomads Warlord plan (Vao): level the Warlord base with Overhaul and add Procreate units. Khanate doubles the Warlord’s units.
- King of Nomads: Camp, Migration, Raptors and Dragon Den The King of Nomads unlocks after 99 troop cards used. Its cards reward placing and moving things: Camp buffs its neighbours whenever a card lands on an empty plot, Migration moves a plot and gives it +10% damage and HP, and the Warlord base shoots banners that lend its stats to allies. The base is not a fixed castle: you lose a life when enemies reach your life statues.
- Balance changes in 1.0 Balance works on Warlord; Smith Tower-boosted Scout Towers buff adjacent Blacksmiths; Warpers riding Raptors summon properly.
How to get it

- Patch #30
In this patch, we're tweaking several perks. Besides buffing some neglected perks, we also replaced some effects so they'd synergize with the card's effects in more interesting ways. Perks like Arcane and Sorcerous, for example, now interact with the Wizard and Warlord's passive abilities instead of just adding mindless 10% initial stat buffs.
- 1.0
Balance card now works with Warlord.
