City defences
City Gate
The City Gate forms part of your City’s first line of defence, alongside the Eastern and Western City Walls.
ClanOps · Updated

Overview
The City’s defences consist of the City Gate, Eastern City Wall and Western City Wall. Each structure participates in defending the City and presents an obstacle to attackers without siege engines.
Walls in battle
During a siege, the attacker’s catapults act first, followed by a counterattack from the Walls. The attacker’s remaining troops then take their turns.
Rebuilding damaged defences
Rebuilding damaged Walls requires construction resources. After a battle, there is a waiting period before rebuilding becomes available.
Level 35 requirements
Both the Eastern and Western City Walls must reach level 35, and City Walls VII research is required.
These requirements apply to the level 35 upgrade; prerequisites change as the building develops.
