Rise Of Kingdoms - Which Civilization Should You Pick?

If you’re planning to build an army that’s heavily focused on cavalry then Germany is the top pick for you. Their Teutonic knight is very strong. Germany is by many considered to be one of the top civilizations. The fact that they have strong cavalry combined with the fact that their action point recovery is increased means that you’re very strong in offense. This gives you a pretty substantial advantage.

To sum it up, if you’re new to the game we suggest to you to take Rome but the other civilizations all have their own strengths and weaknesses. With good play, each of them can be powerful. Despite that though, some civilizations such as Japan are clearly more powerful than others such as Korea. It mostly depends on what kind of play style you’re going for what civilization is best suited for you.

In order to unlock more commanders you have to open chests. You do this by going to the tavern. Opening either a silver or a gold chest. You can open a few of these for free, but afterwards you’ll have to pay for them using gems.

The fourth civilization that you can choose from is France. The starting commander for France is Joan of Arc. France is mainly focused on resource collection. Their unique unit is the Throwing Axeman. France is considered by many to not be a top tier nation in the game. It excels at resource gathering but is lackluster in most other aspects.

Japan is a pretty strong civilization. Their unique commander Kusunoki Masahige is one of the stronger commanders in the game. Their special unit the Samurai is also quite powerful.

If you’re planning on making a lot of infantry units, then Rome could be a good choice for you. However, their starting commander, Scipio Africanus, is not the best. Nevertheless, Rome is a good beginner civilization because they’re quite straightforward to play.
