Urus, god of earth and spirits

The third in our series of articles about the different gods you can play as in our game is about Urus, the Earth God. He is a master tactician and likes to use different types of minions to do his bidding. But don't worry, his arsenal also includes powerful damage spells! Each time you start a game as Urus, you will have the following powers at your disposal:





Rock Spike is a fast and very cheap spell with good damage, but it cannot hit flying targets. While this is not a problem early in the game, you will need to address this issue sooner rather than later. Fury of the earth blessing can be one way to do this - many minions are capable of attacking flying targets, and they can also penetrate enemy shields and, most importantly, antimagic zones. For this reason, Urus has the easiest time dealing with these things, but you will still need to use your minions wisely, as you cannot control them directly once they are summoned.

One of the most powerful minions in the game is the Rock Giant. When upgraded, it is a force capable of destroying entire enemy outposts on its own:



And if you combine it with some other spells (like Clone!), it can quickly and easily win you the game! Just make sure you always have a backup plan in case your minions fail to defeat your enemy. A big Earthquake will usually do the trick!
