Hog Rider strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- Its single target damage is efficient against individual high hitpoint targets.
Weaknesses
- It can only attack ground targets, so it offers nothing against air defences and needs support from units that can hit air.
- Because it only hits one target at a time, it can be overwhelmed by large groups of defending troops.
