Units

From Sons of Valhalla Official Wiki

Units can be given orders to hold position, attack, follow or shield wall. If ordered to attack the units will run towards enemies until they capture a new capture point or die. A Shield Wall can only be ordered if there is at least one Shielded swordsman.png Shielded Swordsman among the units. Commands can be given either to all units or only to certain types. Newly trained units will automatically run to the last captured gate.

City units

City units are trained at city buildings. They can have their health, attack speed and range upgraded and most of them can also be upgraded to a more powerful version via the Advanced Technology upgrade at the building they were recruited from.
