Role in Your Army

Charlie is best used when:

Leading Lancer-focused attack marches
Raiding cities with Marksman-heavy garrisons (Lancers counter Marksmen)
Participating in SvS or events where counter triangle advantage is crucial

Shard Requirements

Charlie shards are required to unlock and upgrade him. Shards are obtained through hero recruitment, events, and gameplay activities.

Tips

Always pair Charlie with Lancer troops — his skills provide zero benefit to Infantry or Marksman
Scout enemy defenses before using Charlie — Lancers are countered by Infantry, so Charlie-led marches are vulnerable to Infantry-heavy defenders
Combine Charlie with Lancer-focused research (Lancer Armor, Lancer Upgrade research technologies)
In a three-hero march slot situation, rotate between Smith, Charlie, and Cloris based on march composition
