Unit Information Game Strategies History
In the Extended Edition, this unit/building is affected by a damage bug.

The Dromon is the Light Ship of the Classical Age, available to upgrade from the Bark and are built at the Dock.

Overview[]

After Barks become Dromons, they gain +5 hit points, +1 attack strength, +1 attack range, +3 movement speed, and +1 line of sight.

As with all Light Ships, the Dromon are the fastest type of ship, making short work of enemy Fishermen, and can fire sideways while on the move, making them the best unit to explore the waters and harass the enemy, as long as they keep their distance from the stronger Heavy Ships.

In addition, Dromons become much more relevant in naval warfare itself than Barks were in the Ancient Age, with the introduction of Fire Ships, which destroy Heavy Ships with terrifying efficience, but are weak to Light Ships.
