⚔️ Troop advantage

Which troop type beats which in Game of Thrones: Dragonfire?

The counter wheel is confirmed word for word by the game's own screens:

Cavalry → beats → Shields → beat → Archers → beat → Spearmen → beat → Cavalry

Full table:

| Your type | Beats (+7%) | Loses to (−7%) |

|---|---|---|

| Cavalry | Shields | Spearmen |

| Shields | Archers | Cavalry |

| Archers | Spearmen | Shields |

| Spearmen | Cavalry | Archers |

| Siege | — (weak everywhere) | everything |

A way to remember it: cavalry charges through shields, shields block arrows, archers shred spearmen from range, spearmen skewer horses. It follows.

Siege is the special case: weak against every troop type, but it deals extra damage to durability (the HP of tiles and structures). You bring it to break walls, not to win a pitched battle.
