Strategic Analysis

The Siege Ram is your **game-ending siege weapon**. When you have map control and need to break through fortified positions, Siege Rams are the answer.

• Castle Breaker: Siege Rams destroy Castles efficiently. With 270 HP, they survive multiple Trebuchet shots while closing distance. Perfect for breaking turtle players.
• Wonder Race: In Wonder race games, Siege Rams with Halberdier escort are the fastest way to destroy enemy Wonders. The garrison bonus makes destruction lightning-fast.
• Forward Push: Use Siege Rams to push into enemy territory. They tank all defensive fire while your army secures the area. Then target key buildings.

Warning: **Paladins and Champions** are your nightmare. Paladins deal full melee damage and have the speed to catch you. Champions are cheap and do massive damage. Always have Halberdiers screening your Rams.
