Legionnaires | Stronghold Guide

Legionnaires are players who are members of other clans or don’t have a clan at all, and can be invited into a detachment for Skirmishes or Advances.

If you want to play with friends who are not in your clan, you can invite them to the detachment as legionnaires. Your clan can also fall back on legionnaires if it lacks clansmen to form a detachment. Moreover, if your clan is not engaged in battles at the moment, or you do not have a clan, you can become a legionnaire and join any open detachment.

Inviting Players to the Detachment

Any clan member in the detachment can invite a legionnaire to join it.

To invite a legionnaire:

Click Invite Players in the Skirmish or Advance window.
In the Invite to Tactical Unit window, select a player and drag them to the field on the right. If the player is not on the list, find them via the search bar.
Type a message (optional) and click Invite.

When legionnaires join the detachment, they can perform the same actions as any regular clansman: select a vehicle, confirm they are ready for battle, or leave the detachment. Legionnaires cannot, however, take command over the detachment.

The maximum number of legionnaires in the detachment is determined by the battle mode and division. For more information see Advances and Skirmishes.

Joining a Detachment as a Legionnaire

Whether you are a clan member or not, you can take part in other clans’ Skirmishes and Advances as a legionnaire. You can join any open detachment via the Detachment List.

The ways to join a detachment via the Detachment List differ slightly, depending on whether you are a clan member or not.

Legionnaire Reward

When you add legionnaires to your detachment, remember the special rules for their reward in battles.

All Industrial Resource earned in battles is distributed equally among all detachment members. But if a legionnaire fought in your detachment, this player gets half of a share, while the second half goes to your clan.

Example. Your detachment of 15 members has earned 1,500 , with each member getting a share of 100.
If there was one legionnaire, this player gets half of a share ( 50 ). The other half goes to your clan ( 50 ).
As a result, your clan earns 1,450.

The number of battles fought by the legionnaire is also counted.

Example. Your detachment of 15 members has earned 1,500 , with each member getting a share of 100.
If there was one legionnaire who played only half of the battles, this player gets a quarter of a share ( 25 ). The rest goes to your clan ( 25 ).
As a result, your clan earns 1,475.

Industrial Resource earned by legionnaires is credited to their clan’s Stronghold Storage. If legionnaires are not clansmen, their earned Industrial Resource is lost.
