What it is

Pikeman is described by its Unlock node as “a hogriding cavalryman impaling foes in a dash”.

The Barracks training building cost 100 Wood in the build menu. This is not a unit training cost; unit costs and base stats were not captured.

Role and unlocks

Units fight island units; towers handle trench enemies, according to the developer reply. Where an Unlock node was captured, I adds its Unlock Runestone to the in-run pool and II permanently unlocks the unit. This does not establish its training cost.

Runestone nodes

Effects below copy the captured tooltip entries. I / II / III are the displayed levels, not tested cumulative totals. Cost seen means the next-level cost seen at our progress, in Runes, not the price of every level. “Max” is the displayed footer; “???” is hidden.
