Karambit Warrior

The Malay unique unit. An extremely cheap and fast infantry that only takes half a population slot. Swarm tactics specialist.

Tactical Briefing

You only cost 25F/15G and take 0.5 population! This means you can field twice as many units. With 30 HP and 7 attack, you're individually weak but devastating in swarms. Your 1.2 speed makes you fast enough to chase archers. Against siege and archers, mass Karambits can overwhelm before they fire enough shots.

Strategic Analysis

The Karambit Warrior is a **swarm infantry specialist**. Half population allows overwhelming numbers.

  • Half Population: 0.5 pop means 200 pop = 400 Karambits. Twice the army size.
  • Extremely Cheap: 25F/15G is almost free. Replace losses instantly.
  • Fast Infantry: 1.2 speed catches archers and siege. Can't kite you.

Warning: **Individually very weak**. 30 HP and 7 attack. One-on-one, loses to almost everything.
