Category:Hero Units

Summoning troops
Drag the blue lane selection arrow to choose which lane units will emerge from the castle. Always move it to the lane you want, before creating a unit. Tap on an unit icon to summon an hero. The gem cost to recruit each hero is represented on the unit portrait.

When you start any level with a castle except for 1-2 and 1-3, the tower elfys are summoned on the castle automatically.

Before you recruit heroes, always start with recruiting some Mineys. They cost no gems and are needed for mining gems to train units.

Classification
Units (heroes) can be classified in two ways.
 * Sort by class: There are 3 classes (Passive, Defensive, Offensive)
 * Sort by type: There are 5 types (Passive, Melee, Mid-range, Long-range and Summoned).

Special attacks
Every unit has there own unique special attack that changes on every tier. Specials will grant a unit invincibility while the animation plays out. Most of their special can cover a weakness, boosting their own function, or giving them powerful new abilities.

Unlocking new units
By playing through the Campaign, you will unlock troops after beating certain levels. In LW 2.3 and other original iOS versions of the game, certain units required moonstones to unlock, all of which were added with updates. In Legendary Wars (GameClub Version), you do not need to spend moonstones to unlock tier 1 units.
